The current trend of running software components on top of virtual machines in cloud platforms is gaining more momentum as it reduces the deployment time and operational costs in comparison to running them on dedicated hardware. By providing elasticity through orchestration, this approach brings even more value taking advantage of the resources on peak times and saving energy when the load is not...
Linking the communication and the information technology infrastructures forms the new Machine-to-machine (M2M) communication trend. We aim to exploit available standard protocols to support smart cities applications. In this paper, we report the work of implementing and evaluating the performance of using request/response protocols for M2M communications. The paper also introduces a mechanism to...
In some use cases, a persistent end-to-end connection between a given data source and a destination may never be present. Consequently, traditional routing protocols cannot be directly applied for delivering data. One example are Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), due to the limited capabilities of the connected nodes and the lack of a reliable connection between them. Such networking paradigms are known...
Context provisioning refers to the trend of gathering, transporting and processing context in order to promote context awareness in Future Internet services. Context awareness enables services to become adaptive, personalized, and accessible in dynamically changing environments. In various scenarios of Internet of things (IoT, connected objects shall be able to negotiate and adapt to their environment...
Mobile tracking system is used to monitor vehicles position and in special cases there are much useful information can be monitored such as speed, cabin temperature and number of passenger. This monitoring process is done using vehicle's position data from satellite through GPS device, and sending the data to a server through GSM modem. This paper proposes new approach on managing all vehicle data...
Information and Communication Technologies are playing major roles in creating Smart environments, and enhancing services in various sectors. The Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication paradigm enables devices used in all live aspects to communicate and share information with limited human intervention. In this paper we present an M2M telemedicine service to monitor Electrocardiagram (ECG) signal...
The current trend in operator networking is towards supporting the communication of devices which do not require human intervention for information gathering, processing and exchange over the network, generically named Machine Type Communication (MTC). This paradigm aims to increase the level of system automation in which the devices and systems can exchange and share data, facilitating the communication...
The upcoming communication aim will not focus on connecting humans by different kinds of multimedia services, but also connecting machines of different aspects, providing a global smart world. The telecommunication industry is currently moving towards service-oriented infrastructures based on Internet Protocol (IP), Service Oriented Architectures (SOA), and Service Delivery Platforms (SDP). In this...
