MQTT protocol is one of open Publish / Subscribe systems for IoT information transmission. In this paper, we are proposing an algorithm to assign a subscriber, which dynamically participate in MQTT clustering system, to an appropriate broker. In MQTT systems with a centralized broker, there are losses of connectivity and messages between subscribers and brokers. In this paper, we addressed this issue for developing scalable open IoT systems and consider clustering MQTT brokers on the SDN infrastructure. In particular, this paper focuses on the problem of allocating subscribers to brokers in accordance with sharing brokers' topics to reduce brokers' load and communication cost in SDN based MQTT cluster. The Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm will reduce the load and the cost as compared to existing methods.

Due to the development of ICT technology, the IoT environment for connecting objects in the vicinity to networks and utilizing information about objects in various fields is getting attention, and security threats are also increasing. In order to solve the increasing security problem in IoT environment, we are studying methods that use certificate, encryption, hash calculation and block chain in the private sector. However, the security authentication method which overcomes the performance gap between devices and has compatibility with various devices It has not been proposed yet. In this paper, we propose an authentication method that can achieve wide compatibility by minimizing the influence of IoT device environment.
