Scalable Network Infrastructures and Technologies for Internet of Things

The Internet of Things is a central enabler, facilitated by the widespread availability of low-power sensors, partially autonomous actuators and robots, smartphones, and tablets, and their wireless connectivity solutions. For optimized use, these elements should be combined with proper scalable network infrastructures and dynamically extensible software platforms capable of integrating sensors/actuators discovered at runtime. Mobile edge or fog computing has been demonstrated to be able to optimize network infrastructure usage in such challenging scenarios by dynamically exploiting virtualized resources, such as allocated network resources, processing functions, and storage space, at computing edges and reducing the need for interworking and continuous connectivity with the global cloud in the form of geographically remote datacenters.
