With the vision of Internet of Things (IoT), physical world itself is becoming a connected information system on the Internet and cyber world is computing as a physical act to sense and respond to real-world events collaboratively. The systems that tightly interlink the cyber and physical worlds are often referred to as Smart Systems or Cyber-Physical Systems. Smart IoT Clouds aim to provide a cyber-physical infrastructure for utility (pay-as-you-go) computing to easily and rapidly build, modify and provision auto-scale smart systems that continuously monitor and collect data about real-world events and automatically control their environment. Developing specifications for service interoperability is critical to enable to achieve this vision. In this paper, we bring an issue to extend Open Cloud Computing Interface for uniform, interoperable interfaces for Smart IoT Cloud Services to access services and build a smart system through orchestrating the cloud services.

In this paper, we present the implementation of a secure OTP(One Time Password) generator for IoT(Internet of Things) devices. Basically, MTM(Mobile Trusted Module) is used and expanded considering secure IoT services. We combine the MTM architecture with a new hardware-based OTP generation engine. The new architecture is more secure, offering not only the security of devices but also that of the OTP service. We have implemented and verified the MTM-based OTP generator on a real mobile platform embedded with the MTM chip. The proposed method can be used as a solution for enhancing security of IoT devices and services.

As the use of public transportation is increasing, a service considering the convenience of passengers is being launched utilizing the Internet (IoT) data collected through the bus information system. However, the bus information system only provides limited information such as the current location of the bus (GPS) and the expected arrival time at the stop. Additional IoT sensor information is needed to provide various services for the safety and convenience of passengers. In this paper, to improve the safety and convenience of passengers, we have added the boarding doors imaging sensor, temperature and humidity sensors, and sensor for measuring the number of passengers. The proposed IoT bus system can attach various sensors to buses to provide high-quality safety services to passengers.

Recent advances in Internet of Things (IoT) encourage us to use IoT devices in daily living areas. However, as IoT devices are being ubiquitously used, concerns onsecurity and privacy of IoT devices are getting grown. Key management is an important and fundamental task to provide security services. For better security, we should restrict reusing a same key in sequential authentication sessions, but it is difficult to manually update and memorize keys. In this paper, we propose a hardware security module(HSM) for automated key management in IoT devices. Our HSM is attached to an IoT device and communicates with the device. It provides an automated, secure key update process without any user intervention. The secure keys provided by our HSM can be used in the user and device authentications for any internet services.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the main enablers for situation awareness needed in accomplishing smart cities. IoT devices, especially for monitoring purposes, have stringent timing requirements which may not be met by cloud computing. This deficiency of cloud computing can be overcome by fog computing for which fog nodes are placed close to IoT devices. Because of low capabilities of fog nodes compared to cloud data centers, fog nodes may not be deployed with all the services required by IoT devices. Thus, in this article, we focus on the issue of fog service placement and present the recent research trends in this issue. Most of the literature on fog service placement deals with determining an appropriate fog node satisfying the various requirements like delay from the perspective of one or more service requests. In this article, we aim to effectively place fog services in accordance with the pre-obtained service demands, which may have been collected during the prior time interval, instead of on-demand service placement for one or more service requests. The concept of the logical fog network is newly presented for the sake of the scalability of fog service placement in a large-scale smart city. The logical fog network is formed in a tree topology rooted at the cloud data center. Based on the logical fog network, a service placement approach is proposed so that services can be placed on fog nodes in a resource-effective way.

To determine a suitable waveform for Internet of Things (IoT) transmission over low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites, this paper reports the results of a performance comparison between chirp spread spectrum (CSS)-based LoRa and direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS)-based Ingenu. The performance of both waveforms was measured in terms of the packet error rate, throughput, and packet loss rate, considering the Doppler effect caused by the high speed of LEO satellites and the interference among multiple terminals. Simulation results indicate that the DSSS scheme is more suitable than the CSS scheme for high-traffic IoT services because of its robustness against interference among multiple terminals. However, the CSS scheme is more suitable than the DSSS scheme for high-mobility IoT services because of its robustness against the Doppler effect. We discuss various solutions, such as the preprocessing of Doppler effect and avoidance of packet collision, to enhance the performance of the DSSS and CSS schemes. The simulation results of the proposed solution show that the enhanced DSSS scheme can be a proper waveform in IoT transmission over LEO satellites for both the high-traffic and high-mobility services.

Internet of Things includes the whole process of collected information generated from a variety of objects, as well as analyzing and sharing it, and providing useful information services to people. This study seeks ways to improve security and safety in the areas of service security technology, ID management technology and service access control, all of which take place in the IoT environment. We have implemented the services that can design and issue C&C (Certificate and Capability) service token authentication, which is based on a public key, to improve the service security. In addition, we suggest LCRS (Left Child-Right Sibling) resource model management for the efficient control of resources when generating the resource services from the data collected from node devices. We also implemented an IoT services platform to manage URL security of the resource services and perform access control for services.

Recommender systems can be used to assist users in selecting required services for their tasks in Internet of Things (IoT) environments in which diverse services can be provided by utilizing IoT devices. Traditional research on recommendation mainly focuses on predicting preferences of individual users. However, in IoT environments, not only individual users but also groups of users can access services in the environments. In this study, we analyzed user groups' preferences on services and developed service recommendation approach for new groups that do not have a history of accessing IoT-services in a certain place. Our approach extends the traditional user-based collaborative filtering by considering the similarity between user groups based on their member organization. We conducted experiments with a real-world dataset collected from IoT testbed environments. The results demonstrate that the proposed approach is effective to recommend services to new user groups in IoT environments.
