A novel energy harvesting technique that uses conducted electromagnetic interference as an energy source is presented. Conducted EMI generated from fluorescent light using a switched-mode power supply was measured and modeled as an equivalent voltage source. Two types of rectifier circuits-a bridge rectifier and a voltage doubler-were used as the harvesting devices for conducted EMI source. The matching networks were designed based on the equivalent model, and the harvested power was improved. The implemented energy harvester produces a regulated power over 68.9 mW and current over 15.1 mA while a regulated voltage can be selected between 3.3 V and 5 V. The proposed system shows the highest harvesting power indoor environment and can provide enough power for the Internet of Things devices.

제4차 산업혁명의 핵심기술인 사물인터넷기술의 발달로 인하여 다양한 서비스가 가능하게 되고, 그 과정에서 개인정보가 자유롭게 처리되게 되었다. 그러나 스마트기기를 비롯한 정보기기가 네트워크로 연결되면서 편리한 서비스가 제공될수록 개인정보 침해위협도 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구는 다양한 사물인터넷서비스를 구현함에 있어서 안전한 환경을 구축하고, 그 가운데 유통되는 개인정보를 보호하기 위해 필요한 정책선정을 위한 중요도에 따른 우선순위를 분석하여 주요정책과제로 제언하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 문헌조사를 바탕으로 개인정보보호정책지표들을 전문가대상의 델파이분석을 통해 3개 분야 9개 영역 25개 지표로 구성하였다. 이러한 개인정보보호정책지표들은 AHP기법의 설문조사로 66명 전문가들이 응답한 결과를 활용하여, 정책지표의 상대적 중요도 및 우선순위를 도출하였다. 그 결과, 개인정보보호정책분야에서는 정책적 분야, 기술적 분야, 관리적 분야 순으로 상대적 중요도 및 우선순위가 도출되었다. 또한, 정책적 분야를 구성하는 3개 영역 중에서는 IoT관련 개인정보보호법제도의 강화가 가장 중요하며, 정책지표 중에서는 IoT에서의 개인정보보호법률의 제 개정을 추진하는 것이 가장 중요하다고 응답하였다. 또한, 조사된 IoT개인정보보호정책의 분야 영역 지표에 대해 쌍대비교한 결과값은 일관성을 갖고 있었다. 이렇게 도출된 개인정보보호정책지표들은 앞으로 안전한 사물인터넷 정책을 추진하여 국가경쟁력을 이끄는데 기여하리라 본다.

Fast decision support systems and accurate diagnosis have become significant in the rapidly growing healthcare sector. As the number of disparate medical IoT devices connected to the human body rises, fast and interrelated healthcare data retrieval gets harder and harder. One of the most important requirements for the Healthcare Internet of Things (HIoT) is semantic interoperability. The state-of-the-art HIoT systems have problems with bandwidth and latency. An extension of cloud computing called fog computing not only solves the latency problem but also provides other benefits including resource mobility and on-demand scalability. The recommended approach helps to lower latency and network bandwidth consumption in a system that provides semantic interoperability in healthcare organizations. To evaluate the system's language processing performance, we simulated it in three different contexts. 1. Polysemy resolution system 2. System for hyponymy-hypernymy resolution with polysemy 3. System for resolving polysemy, hypernymy, hyponymy, meronymy, and holonymy. In comparison to the other two systems, the third system has lower latency and network usage. The proposed framework can reduce the computation overhead of heterogeneous healthcare data. The simulation results show that fog computing can reduce delay, network usage, and energy consumption.

In recent times, the Internet of Things (IoT) has rapidly emerged as one of the most influential information and communication technologies (ICT). The various constituents of the IoT together offer novel technological opportunities by facilitating the so-called "hyper-connected world." The fundamental tasks that need to be performed to provide such a function involve the transceiving, storing, and analyzing of digital data. However, it is challenging to handle voluminous data with IoT devices because such devices generally lack sufficient computational capability. In this study, we examine the IoT from the perspective of security and digital forensics. SQLite is a light-weight database management system (DBMS) used in many IoT applications that stores private information. This information can be used in digital forensics as evidence. However, it is difficult to obtain critical evidence from IoT devices because the digital data stored in these devices is frequently deleted or updated. To address this issue, we propose Schema Pattern-based Recovery (SPaRe), an SQLite recovery scheme that leverages the pattern of a database schema. In particular, SPaRe exhaustively explores an SQLite database file and identifies all schematic patterns of a database record. We implemented SPaRe on an iPhone 6 running iOS 7 in order to test its performance. The results confirmed that SPaRe recovers an SQLite record at a high recovery rate.

Many Internet of Things (IoT) applications involving bursty traffic have emerged recently with event detection. A power management scheme qualified for uplink bursty traffic (PM-UBT) is proposed by distinguishing between bursty and general uplink traffic patterns in the IEEE 802.11 standard to balance energy consumption and uplink latency, especially for stations with limited power and constrained buffer size. The proposed PM-UBT allows a station to transmit an uplink bursty frame immediately regardless of the state. Only when the sleep timer expires can the station send uplink general traffic and receive all downlink frames from the access point. The optimization problem (OP) for PM-UBT is power consumption minimization under a constrained buffer size at the station. This OP can be solved effectively by the bisection method, which demonstrates a performance similar to that of exhaustive search but with less computational complexity. Simulation results show that when the frame arrival rate in a station is between 5 and 100 frame/second, PM-UBT can save approximately 5 mW to 30 mW of power compared with an existing power management scheme. Therefore, the proposed power management strategy can be used efficiently for delay-intolerant uplink traffic in event-driven IoT applications, such as health status monitoring and environmental surveillance.

The interconnection of an enormous number of devices into the Internet at a massive scale is a consequence of the Internet of Things (IoT). As a result, tasks offloading from these IoT devices to remote cloud data centers become expensive and inefficient as their number and amount of its emitted data increase exponentially. It is also a challenge to optimize IoT device energy consumption while meeting its application time deadline and data delivery constraints. Consequently, Fog Computing was proposed to support efficient IoT tasks processing as it has a feature of lower service delay, being adjacent to IoT nodes. However, cloud task offloading is still performed frequently as Fog computing has less resources compared to remote cloud. Thus, optimized schemes are required to correctly characterize and distribute IoT devices tasks offloading in a hybrid IoT, Fog, and cloud paradigm. In this paper, we present a detailed survey and classification of of recently published research articles that address the energy efficiency of task offloading schemes in IoT-Fog-Cloud paradigm. Moreover, we also developed a taxonomy for the classification of these schemes and provided a comparative study of different schemes: by identifying achieved advantage and disadvantage of each scheme, as well its related drawbacks and limitations. Moreover, we also state open research issues in the development of energy efficient, scalable, optimized task offloading schemes for Fog computing.

The growth of mobile devices in Internet of Things (IoT) leads to a number of remote and controlling system related IoT applications. For instance, home automation controlling system uses client system such web apps on smartphone or web service to access the home server by sending control commands. The home server receives the command, then controls for instance the light system. The web service gateway responsible for handling clients' requests attests an internet latency when an increasing number of end users requests submit toward it. Therefore, this web service gateway fails to detect several commands, slows down predefined actions which should be performed without human intervention. In this paper, we investigate the performance of a web server-side platgorm based event-driven, non-blocking approach called Node.js against traditional thread-based server side approach to handle a large number of client requests simultaneously for remote and controlling system in IoT remote monitoring applications. The Node.JS is 40% faster than the traditional web server side features thread-based approach. The use of Node.js server-side handles a large number of clients' requests, then therefore, reduces delay in performing predefined actions automatically in IoT environment.
