To support the sheer number of entities connecting to the /Internet of
Things (IoT)/, emerging IoT networks must support the stewardship of
large amounts of data, in-network and in-flight computation/AI,
distributed storage, and rich queries. While today's IoT uses standard
IP-based messaging, its shortcomings have led to proposed extensions for
constrained environment operation, publish-subscribe middleware,
data-centric routing, among other technologies. This special issue aims
to present the most leading-edge research on:
* *Next-generation IoT network architecture & protocols*, including
improved support for QoS/QoE, increased mobility, streaming media,
and integrated security; a path from client/server centralized
models to a fully distributed comms architecture; edge data producer
disruption.
* *Cross-layer design*, enabling real-time & near-real-time data
delivery and synchronization; support for efficient multi-party
communication; collective behaviors (e.g., crowd sensing,
crowdsourcing, resource federation); impacting low-power design; the
wireless & mobile edge.
* *Novel approaches to Edge networking for IoT*, such as distribution
& orchestration of network functions to best support data processing
and aggregation; seamless interoperation of static and mobile edge
infrastructure & devices; resilience and dynamic adaptation; data
caching and migration; autonomous operation vs opportunistic
connectivity; the proliferation and peering of "edges".
* *IoT communication interoperability*, such as proposals to
articulate in a distributed and self-organizing way communication
between different communication protocols; support for a large
variety of heterogeneous and constrained devices; discovery &
directory services
* *Network measurement & performance*, to assist in understanding,
exposing and comparing the performance of current IoT resources,
infrastructure and protocols in a variety of scenarios, including
industrial & consumer IoT.
* *IoT Privacy, security and trust challenges*, including data
security, user privacy, distributed trust models, attestation,
privacy- and policy-preservation, encrypted search, access control
and policy management.
