Abstract Internet of Things (IoT) has become popular with the rapid development of sensing devices, and it offers a large number of services. Location data is one of the most important information required for IoT systems. With the widespread of Location Based Services (LBS) applications, the privacy and security threats are also emerging. Recently, a large number of studies focused on localization and positioning functionalities, however, the risk associated with user privacy has not been sufficiently addressed so far. Therefore, privacy and security of device location in IoT systems is an active area of research. Since LBS is often exposed to… More >

Abstract With the rapid development of wireless communication technology, the Internet of Things is playing an increasingly important role in our everyday. The amount of data generated by sensor devices is increasing as a large number of connectable devices are deployed in many fields, including the medical, agricultural, and industrial areas. Uploading data to the cloud solves the problem of data overhead but results in privacy issues. Therefore, the question of how to manage the privacy of uploading data and make it available to be interconnected between devices is a crucial issue. In this paper, we propose a scheme that supports… More >

Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) is a heterogeneous information sharing and access platform that provides services in a pervasive manner. Task and computation offloading in the IoT helps to improve the response rate and the availability of resources. Task offloading in a service-centric IoT environment mitigates the complexity in response delivery and request processing. In this paper, the state-based task offloading method (STOM) is introduced with a view to maximize the service response rate and reduce the response time of the varying request densities. The proposed method is designed using the Markov decision-making model to improve the rate of requests… More >

Abstract The importance of Blockchain and IoT technology have been highlighted in various fields. These are not unaccustomed words anymore in our lives. Although the technologies are in the infancy step and are still many remaining technical challenges, there is no doubt that it will be one of the major parts of the future Internet. The efficiency and security of data transmission scheme have always been major issues in the legacy Internet, and a data transmission scheme for the future Internet, including 5G and IoT environment should also provide and support these issues. Consequently, we propose a new data transmission scheme… More >
