   Searching for the Internet of Things: where it is and what it looks like
Shemshadi A., Sheng Q., Qin Y., Sun A., Zhang W., Yao L. Personal and Ubiquitous Computing 21(6): 1097-1112, 2017.  Type: Article

The Internet of Things (IoT) is widely presented as a revolutionary technology, touching all aspects of our lives and being accessible to more people than ever before. The reality of the IoT, however, does not fulfill the hype, and we ...

   Smart service portfolios: Do the cities follow standards?
Anthopoulos L., Janssen M., Weerakkody V.  WWW 2016 Companion (Proceedings of the 25th International World Wide Web Conference Companion, Montréal, Québec, Canada, Apr 11-15, 2016) 357-362, 2016.  Type: Proceedings

The roll out of smart city technologies has taken place at such a rate that regulatory standards have largely been unable to meet the pace. Many mobile networks today are therefore operating in a technically unstandardized landscape. T...

   Discovery in the Internet of Things: the Internet of Things
Zaslavsky A., Jayaraman P. Ubiquity 2015(October): 1-10, 2015.  Type: Article

The challenge of making sense of data collected in the Internet of Things (IoT), such that the “needle” can be found in the digital haystack, is the focus of this work. This is a significant area of research in the ...

   Key challenges for the smart city: turning ambition into reality
Van den Bergh J., Viaene S.  HICSS 2015 (Proceedings of the 2015 48th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences,Jan 5-8, 2015) 2385-2394, 2015.  Type: Proceedings

“Even if the initiatives are sometimes uncoordinated, they bring the city each time a step closer to becom[ing] a true smart city.” While they do not define the context in which they consider a “true smart...

  A new virtual network static embedding strategy within the cloud’s private backbone network
Fajjari I., Aitsaadi N., Pióro M., Pujolle G. Computer Networks 6269-88, 2014.  Type: Article

Cloud computing is described, in this work, as overcoming the main issues of the computational world. It may be more accurately considered as compensating for resource availability, provisioning, and allocation decisions, while simulta...

  Hierarchical virtual machine consolidation in a cloud computing system
Hwang I., Pedram M.  CLOUD 2013 (Proceedings of the IEEE 6th International Conference on Cloud Computing, Santa Clara, CA, Jun 27-Jul 2, 2013) 196-203, 2013.  Type: Proceedings

As a timely contribution to energy efficiency challenges across data centers and clouds, the authors propose a virtual machine (VM) consolidation approach to limit the number of physical machines provisioned and active. By dealing with...

  Characterizing hypervisor vulnerabilities in cloud computing servers
Perez-Botero D., Szefer J., Lee R.  CloudComputing 2013 (Proceedings of the 2013 International Workshop on Security in Cloud Computing, Hangzhou, China, May 8, 2013) 3-10, 2013.  Type: Proceedings, Reviews: (2 of 2)

Security, in every application of the concept, is a constantly moving target: once defenders identify and patch a vulnerability, attackers move on to the next weak spot. Efforts are therefore required to track the path of exposures thr...
