Integrating Data Privacy and Energy Management in Smart Cities With Partial Sustainable IoT Networks

Integrating Data Privacy and Energy Management in Smart Cities With Partial Sustainable IoT Networks Abstract: IoT networks are transitioning towards greener underlying technologies. In smart cities environments, while some devices are already sustainable with rechargeable batteries and energy harvesting hardware, many still rely on traditional non-sustainable components. This partial sustainable Internet of Things (IoT) network […]

A SDN-Based Approach for Conflicting Energy Profiles on Partially Sustainable IoT Networks

A SDN-Based Approach for Conflicting Energy Profiles on Partially Sustainable IoT Networks Abstract: Equipping millions of Internet of Things (IoT) devices with rechargeable batteries and energy ambient harvesters introduce a significant maintenance cost. Thus, it is realistic to expect that the IoT networks will become greener gradually, over the next years, which means that current

An Online Quantitative Measure of Density for Low-Power IoT Networks

Low-Power Internet-of-Things (LPIoT) networks are formed by a massive number of power-constrained devices that use short-range wireless technologies to communicate. In the next years, the density of LPIoT networks tends to grow due to the low price of the IoT devices and the popularity of the IoT applications, which includes smart-home, building-monitoring, and smart-cities. Despite being a critical feature, often it is not clear how network density can be expressed in quantifiable terms. This letter proposes DENSity indeX (DENX), which is a measure for the density of LPIoT networks. DENX has been designed, implemented, and evaluated as an IoT platform tool to provide an online and fine-grained measure of density.
