The development of novel applications causes increased demands on the computational capabilities of Vehicular Edge Computing (VEC). Current works have introduced Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) into VEC to solve the resource-constrained problem. However, ...

With the widespread use of Internet of Things (IoT) devices and the arrival of the 5G era, edge computing has become an attractive paradigm to serve end-users and provide better QoS. Many efforts have been paid to provision some merging public network ...

IoT systems based on Digital Twins (DTs) — virtual copies of physical objects and systems — can be very effective to enable data-driven services and promote better control and decisions, in particular by exploiting distributed approaches where cloud and ...

Today’s Internet of Things (IoT) applications are mostly developed as a bundle of hardware and associated software. Future cross-manufacturer app stores for IoT applications will require that the strong coupling of hardware and software is loosened. In ...

Nowadays, several Internet of Things (IoT) deployments use publish-subscribe paradigms to disseminate IoT data to a pool of interested consumers. At the moment, the most widespread standard for such scenarios is MQTT. We also register an increasing ...

The pervasiveness and growing processing capabilities of mobile and embedded systems have enabled the widespread diffusion of the Fog Computing paradigm in the Internet of Things scenario, where computing is directly performed at the edges of the ...

The advances in deep neural networks (DNN) have significantly enhanced real-time detection of anomalous data in IoT applications. However, the complexity-accuracy-delay dilemma persists: Complex DNN models offer higher accuracy, but typical IoT devices ...

Voluminous time-series data streams produced in continuous sensing environments impose challenges pertaining to ingestion, storage, and analytics. In this study, we present a holistic approach based on data sketching to address these issues. We propose ...

The Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm combines the interconnection of massive amounts of battery-constrained and low-computational-power devices with low-latency and high-reliability network requirements. Additionally, diverse end-to-end services and ...

Large online music databases under Creative Commons licenses are rarely recorded by well-known artists, therefore conventional metadata-based search is insufficient in their adaptation to instrument players’ needs. The emerging class of smart musical ...
