It is the aim of IoT-Testware to supply a rich set of TTCN-3 test suites and test cases for IoT technologies to enable developers in setting up a comprehensive test environment of their own, if needed from the beginning of a project. Initially, IoT-Testware will focus on protocols like CoAP and MQTT. To ensure test and implementation technology independence, the test suites will be realized in TTCN-3...
Heterogeneity in constrained networks and gateways is perhaps one of the single greatest challenges facing end-to-end management of devices and networks in the IoT. Today, the Lightweight M2M (LWM2M) protocol, leveraged on open Internet standards, has become a strong contender for REST-based IoT management. However, significant challenges exist for remote gateway management, particularly for proxies...
The Internet of Things (IoT) enables the connections of billions of devices to the Internet. It is thus very important to effectively manage this huge amount of devices. Among many available device management protocols, Open Mobile Alliance Lightweight M2M (OMA LWM2M) has been adopted by the global M2M standards, ETSI M2M and oneM2M as the standard for device management. However, OMA LWM2M-supported...
Emergency situations, such as fire incidents or terrorist attacks, have imposed strongest safety requirements for crowds gathering. The enhancement of situation awareness, decision support and emergency notification systems that facilitate the safety and effectiveness of evacuation processes in a major incident is therefore of utmost importance. ICT, IoT and smart systems have gained much attention...
LWM2M is an emerging Open Mobile Alliance standard that defines a fast deployable client-server specification to provide various machine to machine services. It provides both efficient device management as well as security workflow for Internet of Things applications, making it especially suitable for use in constrained networks. However, most of the ongoing research activities on this topic focus...
Hierarchical PCE architecture is considered in multi-domain EONs. A novel scheme is proposed to proactively update the parent PCE using BGP-LS. Simulations show that the proposed scheme reduces blocking probability and parent PCE control load.
The expected evolution of the IoT into a huge and growing number of sensors connected to the Internet and generating a huge amount of data, translates into new challenges in the analysis phase for the extraction of useful information to the final user. This scenario opens new opportunities for the introduction of context-awareness features, as it is possible to store context information linked to...
The Internet of Things is a paradigm of the interconnection of heterogeneous equipment, will be part of the future of the Internet. Wireless sensor networks is a major component of the Internet of Things. Large-scale heterogeneous network integration and management is one of the major challenges of the Internet of Things. This requires building automation or intelligent network management system to...
IEEE P1900.4 is an emerging standard for optimized radio resource utilization where cognitive radio technologies are used for efficient spectrum utilization. In this paper, we design and implement a cognitive wireless network system based on open documents of IEEE P1900.4, and evaluate its performance using UDP streaming and HTTP download. Our experiments show interesting results that total network...
Distributed software systems are characterized by increasing autonomy. They often have the capability to sense the environment and react to it, discover the presence of other systems and take advantage of their services, adapt and re-configure themselves in accordance with the internal as well as the global state. Testing this kind of systems is challenging, and systematic and automated approaches...
The UNICORE grid system provides a seamless, secure and intuitive access to distributed grid resources. In recent years, UNICORE 5 is used as a well-tested grid middleware system in production grids (e.g. DEISA, D-Grid) and at many supercomputer centers world-wide. Beyond this production usage, UNICORE serves as a solid basis in many European and International research projects and business scenarios...
