Smart space is a technology that supports humans by interacting with the surrounding environment. Smart space has a built-in dynamic intelligent environment. This paper proposes a framework that provides user-customized dynamic intelligent environments in smart spaces. In the existing research that provides user-customized intelligent services, users' interests are only explicitly analyzed, and smart spaces are not considered. Implicit interest analysis can suggest a service that may be of interest to users rather than explicit interest analysis, but it requires higher performance than explicit interest analysis. Smart spaces can obtain useful information by interacting with information in the space. The framework proposed in the study uses a proximity-based social network of things to fit into a smart space. In addition, the implicit interest analysis provides intelligent information for smart spaces using the social media information and spatial information objects. In addition, we propose a method to prevent performance degradation while maintaining accuracy in consideration of the characteristics of the smart space.

태양 에너지 수집형 IoT 기기는 주기적으로 재충전되는 태양 에너지의 특성상, 에너지 소모를 최소화하기보다는 수집된 에너지를 최대한 유용하게 사용하는 것이 중요하다. 한편, 데이터 기밀성과 프라이버시, 응답속도, 비용 등의 이유로 클라우드가 아닌 데이터 소스 근처에서 머신러닝을 수행하는 엣지 AI에 대한 연구도 활발한데, 그 중 하나는 여러 IoT 장치들이 수집한 오디오 데이터를 활용하여, 다양한 AI 응용들을 IoT 엣지 컴퓨팅 환경에서 제공하는 것이다. 그러나, 이와 관련된 많은 연구에서, IoT 기기들은 에너지의 제약으로 인하여, 엣지 서버(IoT 서버)로의 센싱 데이터 전송만을 수행하고, 데이터 전처리를 포함한 모든 AI 과정은 엣지 서버에서 수행한다. 이 경우, 엣지 서버의 과부하 문제 뿐 아니라, 학습 및 추론에 불필요한 데이터까지도 서버에 그대로 전송되므로 네트워크 과부하 문제도 야기한다. 또한, 이를 해결하고자, 데이터 전처리 과정을 각 IoT 기기에 모두 맡긴다면, 기기의 에너지 부족으로 정전시간이 증가하는 또 다른 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 각 IoT 기기의 에너지 상태에 따라 데이터 전처리 여부를 결정함으로써, 기기들의 정전시간 증가 문제를 완화시키면서 서버 집중형 엣지 AI 환경의 문제들(엣지 서버 및 네트워크 과부하)을 완화시키고자 한다. 제안기법에서 IoT 장치는 기기가 기본적으로 동작하는 데 필요한 에너지 외의 여분의 에너지 양을 예측하고, 이 여분의 에너지가 있는 경우에만 이를 사용하여 기기에서 전처리 과정, 즉 수집 대상 소리 판별과 잡음 제거 과정을 거친 후 서버에 전송함으로써, IoT기기의 정전시간에 영향을 주지 않으면서, 에너지 적응적으로 데이터 전처리 위치(IoT기기 또는 엣지 서버)를 결정하여 수행한다.

Developing the TCP/IP standard IBA which is higher organization of IETF decided to attach the TCP/IP protocol stack to small things, such as sensor. This means small object is also considered as on of the communication node, it has symbolic meaning that expand smart object has all five layer. Under this background, IoT/WoT configure the intelligent network between objects based on the internet to communication was introduced. Things has own IP address on IoT environment and are smart object that a lot of people communicate over the internet on Application Layer. In other words, IoT is that smart object are commercialized space. According to the interest of IoT, IETF establish CoAP for use as IoT protocol. CoAP is expected that standard protocols created by things is connected to the Internet protocol that can be used within a constrained environment. Accordingly, in this paper, we proposed Middleware API that can manage and collect the data of objects that connected CoAP network.

Recently, IoT(Internet of Things) has been extensively researching to provide intelligent services by fusing ICT. Especially with the advent of Germany's Industry 4.0, it is emphasized the importance of the industrial IoT to maximize the production capacity. Accordingly, a lot of efforts to spread the smart factory base of industrial IoT have continued domestically as well as abroad. But the current smart factory systems have controlled equipment using the data declared in the embedded systems. Therefore, it is difficult to control environment that lots of equipment is installed. In this paper, we proposed equipment control system based on data base access method for industrial IoT. This method controls the equipment using data base from parameter of equipment. Through experiments that the system apply to mold shot system with a number of variables, it is shown that the proposed method can efficiently control a number of devices.

In the end-user domain of an IoT environment, there are more and more intelligent M2M devices that provide resources to create and share application services. Therefore, it can be very useful to manage trust by transferring the role of the existing centralized service provider to end users in a P2P environment. However, in a decentralized M2M computing environment where end users independently provide or consume services, mutual trust building is the most important factor. This is because malicious users trying to build malfunctioning services can cause security problems in M2M computing environments such as IoT. In this paper, we provide an integrated analysis and approach for trust evaluation of M2M application services, and an optimized trust evaluation model that can guarantee reliability among users of the M2M community.

Internet of Things technology is an intelligent service that connects all objects to the Internet and interacts with them. It is a technology that can be used in various fields, such as device management, process management, monitoring of restricted areas for industrial systems, as well as for navigation in military theaters of operation. However, because all devices are connected to the Internet, various attacks using security vulnerabilities can cause a variety of damage, such as economic loss, personal information leaks, and risks to life from vulnerability attacks against medical services or for military purposes. Therefore, in this paper, a mutual authentication method and a key-generation and update system are applied by applying S/Key technology based on a hash chain in the communications process. A mutual authentication method is studied, which can cope with various security threats. The proposed protocol can be applied to inter-peer security communications, and we confirm it is robust against replay attacks and man-in-the-middle attacks, providing data integrity against well-known attacks in the IoT environment.

With the broad adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) in a variety of scenarios and application services, management and orchestration entities require upgrading the traditional architecture and develop intelligent models with ultra-reliable methods. In a heterogeneous network environment, mission-critical IoT applications are significant to consider. With erroneous priorities and high failure rates, catastrophic losses in terms of human lives, great business assets, and privacy leakage will occur in emergent scenarios. In this paper, an efficient resource slicing scheme for optimizing federated learning in software-defined IoT (SDIoT) is proposed. The decentralized support vector regression (SVR) based controllers predict the IoT slices via packet inspection data during peak hour central congestion to achieve a time-sensitive condition. In off-peak hour intervals, a centralized deep neural networks (DNN) model is used within computation-intensive aspects on fine-grained slicing and remodified decentralized controller outputs. With known slice and prioritization, federated learning communications iteratively process through the adjusted resources by virtual network functions forwarding graph (VNFFG) descriptor set up in software-defined networking (SDN) and network functions virtualization (NFV) enabled architecture. To demonstrate the theoretical approach, Mininet emulator was conducted to evaluate between reference and proposed schemes by capturing the key Quality of Service (QoS) performance metrics.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is set to transform patient care by enhancing data collection, analysis, and management through medical sensors and wearable devices. However, the convergence of IoT device vulnerabilities and the sensitivity of healthcare data raises significant data integrity and privacy concerns. In response, this research introduces the Smart-Coord system, a practical and affordable solution for securing healthcare IoT. Smart-Coord leverages blockchain technology and coordinate-based access management to fortify healthcare IoT. It employs IPFS for immutable data storage and intelligent Solidity Ethereum contracts for data integrity and confidentiality, creating a hierarchical, AES-CBC-secured data transmission protocol from IoT devices to blockchain repositories. Our technique uses a unique coordinate system to embed confidentiality and integrity regulations into a single access control model, dictating data access and transfer based on subject-object pairings in a coordinate plane. This dual enforcement technique governs and secures the flow of healthcare IoT information. With its implementation on the Matic network, the Smart-Coord system's computational efficiency and cost-effectiveness are unparalleled. Smart-Coord boasts significantly lower transaction costs and data operation processing times than other blockchain networks, making it a practical and affordable solution. Smart-Coord holds the promise of enhancing IoT-based healthcare system security by managing sensitive health data in a scalable, efficient, and secure manner. The Smart-Coord framework heralds a new era in healthcare IoT adoption, expertly managing data integrity, confidentiality, and accessibility to ensure a secure, reliable digital environment for patient data management.

In our daily lives, we engage in a variety of tasks that rely on our senses, such as seeing. Blindness is the absence of the sense of vision. According to the World Health Organization, 2.2 billion people worldwide suffer from various forms of vision impairment. Unfortunately, blind people face a variety of indoor and outdoor challenges on a daily basis, limiting their mobility and preventing them from engaging in other activities. Blind people are very vulnerable to a variety of hazards, including falls. Various barriers, such as stairs, can cause a fall. The Internet of Things (IoT) is used to track falls and send a warning message to the blind caretakers. One of the gaps in the previous works is that they were unable to differentiate between falls true and false. Treating false falls as true falls results in many false alarms being sent to the blind caretakers and thus, they may reject the IoT system. As a means of bridging this chasm, this paper proposes an intelligent shoe that is able to precisely distinguish between false and true falls based on three sensors, namely, the load scale sensor, the light sensor, and the Flex sensor. The proposed IoT system is tested in an indoor environment for various scenarios of falls using four models of machine learning. The results from our system showed an accuracy of 0.96%. Compared to the state-of-the-art, our system is simpler and more accurate since it avoids sending false alarms to the blind caretakers.
