A systematic approach toward security in Fog computing: Assets, vulnerabilities, possible countermeasures

Mozhdeh Farhadi, Jean‐Louis Lanet, Guillaume Pierre, Daniele Miorandi

Software: Practice and Experience > 50 > 6 > 973 - 997

Fog computing is an emerging paradigm in the Internet of Things (IoT) space, consisting of a middle computation layer, sitting between IoT devices and Cloud servers. Fog computing provides additional computing, storage, and networking resources in close proximity to where data is being generated and/or consumed. As the Fog layer has direct access to data streams generated by IoT devices and responses/commands...

Adaptive Optimal Stochastic Control of Delay-Tolerant Networks

Eitan Altman, Francesco De Pellegrini, Daniele Miorandi, Giovanni Neglia

IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing > 2017 > 16 > 7 > 1815 - 1829

Optimal stochastic control of delay tolerant networks is studied in this paper. First, the structure of optimal two-hop forwarding policies is derived. In order to be implemented, such policies require knowledge of certain global system parameters such as the number of mobiles or the rate of contacts between mobiles. But, such parameters could be unknown at system design time or may even change over...

Computer Networks > 2016 > 108 > C > 133-147

In the Internet of Things (IoT) heterogeneous technologies concur to the provisioning of customized services able to bridge the gap between the physical and digital realms. Security, privacy and data quality are acknowledged to represent key issues to be tackled in order to foster the large-scale adoption of IoT systems and technologies. One instrumental aspect concerns the ability of the system to...

On Efficient Topologies for Bluetooth Scatternets

Daniele Miorandi, Arianna Trainito, Andrea Zanella

Lecture Notes in Computer Science > Personal Wireless Communications > 726-740

In this paper we investigate the relationship between network capacity and topology for Bluetooth scatternets. We start by considering the intrinsic capacity limits of a scatternet structure, and we show that limiting capacity may be achieved for very local traffic and under specific conditions on the scatternet structure. Then, we provide a description of the performance achievable with two basic...

All Roads Lead to Rome: Data Highways for Dense Wireless Sensor Networks

David Lowe, Daniele Miorandi

Lecture Notes of the Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering > Sensor Systems and Software > 189-205

The design of efficient routing algorithms is an important issue in dense ad hoc wireless networks. Previous work has shown that benefits can be achieved through the creation of a set of data “highways” that carry packets across the network, from source(s) to sink(s). Current approaches to the design of these highways however require a–priori knowledge of the global network topology, with consequent...

A secure and quality-aware prototypical architecture for the Internet of Things

Sabrina Sicari, Alessandra Rizzardi, Daniele Miorandi, Cinzia Cappiello, more

Information Systems > 2016 > 58 > C > 43-55

The increasing diffusion of services enabled by Internet of Things (IoT) technologies raises several risks associated to security and data quality. Together with the high number of heterogeneous interconnected devices, this creates scalability issues, thereby calling for a flexible middleware platform able to deal with both security threats and data quality issues in a dynamic IoT environment. In...

A Biological Approach to Autonomic Communication Systems

Iacopo Carreras, Imrich Chlamtac, Francesco Pellegrini, Csaba Kiraly, more

Lecture Notes in Computer Science > Transactions on Computational Systems Biology IV > 76-82

Among the most important research topics in computer sciences, a primary role is played by design and control of next-generation communication networks (NGCNs). Such networks will be characterized by heterogeneity at all levels, encompassing a large variety of users, media, processes and channels. Another important feature of NGCNs will be the ability to interact with the environment. Various agents...

Evaluating the Robustness of Activator-Inhibitor Models for Cluster Head Computation

Lidia Yamamoto, Daniele Miorandi

Lecture Notes in Computer Science > Swarm Intelligence > A Graph-Based Developmental Swarm Representation and Algorithm > 143-154

Activator-inhibitor models have been widely used to explain several morphogenetic processes. They have also been used to engineer algorithms for computer graphics, distributed systems and networks. These models are known to be robust to perturbations such as the removal of peaks of chemicals. However little has been reported about their actual quantitative performance under such disruptions. ...

Iacopo Carreras, Francesco Pellegrini, Daniele Miorandi, Hagen Woesner

Lecture Notes in Computer Science > Autonomic Communication > Autonomic Session 1 > 29-40

In this paper, we present and analyze a framework for self-evolving autonomic services in a wireless nomadic environment. We present a disconnected network architecture, where users mobility is exploited to achieve a scalable behaviour, and communication is based on localized peer-to-peer interactions among neighboring nodes. Service management is achieved by introducing autonomic services, whose...

Eigenvector Centrality in Highly Partitioned Mobile Networks: Principles and Applications

Iacopo Carreras, Daniele Miorandi, Geoffrey S. Canright, Kenth Engø-Monsen

Studies in Computational Intelligence > Advances in Biologically Inspired Information Systems > System Design and Programming > 123-145

In this chapter we introduce a model for analyzing the spread of epidemics in a disconnected mobile network. The work is based on an extension, to a dynamic setting, of the eigenvector centrality principle introduced by two of the authors for the case of static networks. The extension builds on a new definition of connectivity matrix for a highly partitioned mobile system, where the connectivity between...

Fault Tolerance of Embryonic Algorithms in Mobile Networks

David Lowe, Amir Mujkanovic, Daniele Miorandi, Lidia Yamamoto

Lecture Notes in Computer Science > Evolvable Systems: From Biology to Hardware > Session 2: Artificial Development > 49-60

In previous work the authors have described an approach for building distributed self–healing systems – referred to as EmbryoWare – that, in analogy to Embryonics in hardware, is inspired by cellular development and differentiation processes. The approach uses ”artificial stem cells” that autonomously differentiate into the node types needed to obtain the desired system–level behaviour. Each node...

Autonomic Information Diffusion in Intermittently Connected Networks

Sara Alouf, Iacopo Carreras, Álvaro Fialho, Daniele Miorandi, more

Autonomic Computing and Networking > Autonomic Networking > 411-433

In this work, we introduce a framework for designing autonomic information diffusion mechanisms in intermittently connected wireless networks. Our approach is based on the use of techniques and tools drawn from evolutionary computing research, which enable to embed evolutionary features in epidemic-style forwarding mechanisms. In this way, it is possible to build a system in which information dissemination...
