Many indoor location detection systems are developed to solve positioning problem where satellite-based solutions prone to failure. Among many proposed solutions, fingerprinting technique proved to be the most reliable approach for indoor location. However, it comes with a cost; it entails a time-consuming learning phase which should be repeated many times during the system's life time to preserve system accuracy. Thus, we propose an automated signal mapping robot called RoboMapper to alleviate time-consuming nature of the learning phase of fingerprinting technique. With the help of its accurate distance keeping mechanisms, RoboMapper can construct the signal map of the environment so that the created map can be used for user positioning. Our findings indicate that using RoboMapper 2.68-meter positioning accuracy with 70% probability can be achieved.","PeriodicalId":268882,"journal":{"name":"2019 7th International Conference on Future Internet of Things and Cloud (FiCloud)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127135164","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The goal of improving the speed of change detection could be to satisfy real-time performance or to process larger data in a timely manner. This study proposes an approach based on MapReduce and sampling to improve the performance of using change detection to process large video data on Hadoop clusters.

To help providers deal with such demands without sacrificing performance, the concept of cloud automation had recently arisen to improve the performance and reduce the manual efforts related to the management of cloud computing workloads. In this context, we propose in this paper, Deep learning Smart Scheduling (DSS), an automated big data task scheduling approach in cloud computing environments. DSS combines Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) to automatically predict the Virtual Machines (VMs) to which each incoming big data task should be scheduled to so as to improve the performance of big data analytics and reduce their resource execution cost. Experiments conducted using real-world datasets from Google Cloud Platform show that our solution minimizes the CPU usage cost by 28.8% compared to the Shortest Job First (SJF), and by 14% compared to both the Round Robin (RR) and improved Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) approaches. Moreover, our solution decreases the RAM memory usage cost by 31.25% compared to the SJF, by 25% compared to the RR, and by 18.78% compared to the improved PSO.","PeriodicalId":268882,"journal":{"name":"2019 7th International Conference on Future Internet of Things and Cloud (FiCloud)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117056727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, providing a secure infrastructure to exchange information is more vital and inevitable. Attackers are looking for a way to penetrate these systems and exploit various techniques, such as account hijack and denial of service attacks, to obtain the information or develop a disorder in the system. The creation of treat models helps to identify the vulnerabilities, prevent potential attacks, and consider appropriate mechanisms to mitigate them. One of these mechanisms is the access control list and the role-based access control list is one of its variants that defines some user groups and allocates resources to specific groups. Token-based authentication is another mechanism which helps to maintain security. When a user requests to access a resource, initially it must be authenticated by a username and represents a token. In this effort, by using the concept of role-based access control and JSON web token framework, a customized framework is proposed and implemented with a higher level of security in comparison to a standard JSON web token framework. Moreover, this proposal has the ability to update the status of access to resources in case of changing access policies by the policy engine.","PeriodicalId":268882,"journal":{"name":"2019 7th International Conference on Future Internet of Things and Cloud (FiCloud)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133394066","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result, with microservices, we are able to scale and update their applications based on the load attributed to each service. Monitoring and managing the load in a distributed system is a complex task as the degradation of performance within a single service will cascade reducing the performance of other dependent services. Such performance degradations may result in anomalous behaviour observed for instance for the response time of a service. This paper presents a Detection and Localization system for Anomalies (DLA) that monitors and analyzes performance-related anomalies in container-based microservice architectures. To evaluate the DLA, an experiment is done using R, Docker and Kubernetes, and different performance metrics are considered. The results show that DLA is able to accurately detect and localize anomalous behaviour.","PeriodicalId":268882,"journal":{"name":"2019 7th International Conference on Future Internet of Things and Cloud (FiCloud)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117182874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It separates, for a complex system, the concerns of computation and physical entities distribution, respectively into two different models: 1) computational or virtual agents' model and 2) physical Bigraph model. The main objective of this paper is twofold; first, we propose a multi-views architecture to Fog computing taking into account security level, then we define, according to this semantic framework, the physical entities of Fog architecture and their geographical dispersion, as well as the virtual entities devoted to represent security functionalities.
