Experimenting with a Fog-computing Architecture for Indoor Navigation

Abstract

The present paper outlines the framework design of an Application Agnostic Architecture for Fog and Mist Computing systems. An analysis explains how the proposed architecture satisfies the primary characteristics of a Fog and Mist computing paradigm by using low power and low-cost components. It also introduces an Indoor Navigation System and a Notification service as a use-case, to assess the proposed framework as a Fog-Computing architecture while demonstrating how it can address Mobile and IoT challenges.
