Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) is a type of network architecture that provides cloud computing capabilities at the edge of the network. We consider the use case of video surveillance for an university campus running on a 5G-MEC environment. A key issue is the eventual overloading of computing resources on the MEC nodes during peak demand. We pro...

We analyze the utilization of publish-subscribe protocols in IoT and Fog Computing and challenges around security configuration, performance, and qualitative characteristics. Such problems with security configuration lead to significant disruptions and high operation costs. Yet, These issues can be prevented by selecting the appropriate transmissio...

We introduce a system for Autonomic Management of Power Consumption in setups that involve Internet of Things (IoT) and Fog Computing. The Central IoT (CIoT) is a Fog Computing based solution to provide advanced orchestration mechanisms to manage dynamic duty cycles for extra energy savings. The solution works by adjusting Home (H) and Away (A) cyc...
