Extracting the valuable features and information in Big Data has become one of the important research issues in Data Science. In most Internet of Things (IoT) applications, the collected data are uncertain and imprecise due to sensor device variations or transmission errors. In addition, the sensing data may change as time evolves. We refer an uncertain data stream as a dataset that has velocity, veracity, and volume properties simultaneously. This paper employs the parallelism in edge computing environments to facilitate the top-k dominating query process over multiple uncertain IoT data streams. The challenges of this problem include how to quickly update the result for processing uncertainty and reduce the computation cost as well as provide highly accurate results. By referring to the related existing papers for certain data, we provide an effective probabilistic top-k dominating query process on uncertain data streams, which can be parallelized easily. After discussing the properties of the proposed approach, we validate our methods through the complexity analysis and extensive simulated experiments. In comparison with the existing works, the experimental results indicate that our method can improve almost 60% computation time, reduce nearly 20% communication cost between servers, and provide highly accurate results in most scenarios.

With the advancement of technology, the data generated in our lives is getting faster and faster, and the amount of data that various applications need to process becomes extremely huge. Therefore, we need to put more effort into analyzing data and e xtracting valuable information. Cloud computing used to be a good technology to solve a large number of data analysis problems. However, in the era of the popularity of the Internet of Things (IoT), transmitting sensing data back to the cloud for centralized data analysis will consume a lot of wireless communication and network transmission costs. To solve the above problems, edge computing has become a promising solution. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for processing probabilistic skyline queries over uncertain data streams in an edge computing environment. We use the concept of a second skyline set to filter data that is unlikely to be the result of the skyline. Besides, the edge server only sends the information needed to update the global analysis results on the cloud server, which will greatly reduce the amount of data transmitted over the network. The results show that our proposed method not only reduces the response time by more than 50% compared with the brute force method on two-dimensional data but also maintains the leading processing speed on high-dimensional data.
Predictive analytics in Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) based Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming a high demand in many real-world applications. A prediction problem in an MEC-based IoT environment typically corresponds to a collection of tasks with eac h task solved in a specific MEC environment based on the data accumulated locally, which can be regarded as a Multi-task Learning (MTL) problem. However, the heterogeneity of the data (non-IIDness) accumulated across different MEC environments challenges the application of general MTL techniques in such a setting. Federated MTL (FMTL) has recently emerged as an attempt to address this issue. Besides FMTL, there exists another powerful but under-exploited distributed machine learning technique, called Network Lasso (NL), which is inherently related to FMTL but has its own unique features. In this paper, we made an in-depth evaluation and comparison of these two techniques on three distinct IoT datasets representing real-world application scenarios. Experimental results revealed that NL outperformed FMTL in MEC-based IoT environments in terms of both accuracy and computational efficiency.
Workflow decision making is critical to performing many practical workflow applications. Scheduling in edge-cloud environments can address the high complexity of workflow applications, while decreasing the data transmission delay between the cloud an d end devices. However, due to the heterogeneous resources in edge-cloud environments and the complicated data dependencies between the tasks in a workflow, significant challenges for workflow scheduling remain, including the selection of an optimal tasks-servers solution from the possible numerous combinations. Existing studies are mainly done subject to rigorous conditions without fluctuations, ignoring the fact that workflow scheduling is typically present in uncertain environments. In this study, we focus on reducing the execution cost of workflow applications mainly caused by task computation and data transmission, while satisfying the workflow deadline in uncertain edge-cloud environments. The Triangular Fuzzy Numbers (TFNs) are adopted to represent the task processing time and data transferring time. A cost-driven fuzzy scheduling strategy based on an Adaptive Discrete Particle Swarm Optimization (ADPSO) algorithm is proposed, which employs the operators of Genetic Algorithm (GA). This strategy introduces the randomly two-point crossover operator, neighborhood mutation operator, and adaptive multipoint mutation operator of GA to effectively avoid converging on local optima. The experimental results show that our strategy can effectively reduce the workflow execution cost in uncertain edge-cloud environments, compared with other benchmark solutions.
A Range-Skyline Query (RSQ) is the combination of range query and skyline query. It is one of the practical query types in multi-criteria decision services, which may include the spatial and non-spatial information as well as make the resulting infor mation more useful than skyline search when the location is concerned. Furthermore, Continuous Range-Skyline Query (CRSQ) is an extension of Range-Skyline Query (RSQ) that the system continuously reports the skyline results to a query within a given search range. This work focuses on the RSQ and CRSQ within a specific range on Internet of Mobile Things (IoMT) applications. Many server-client approaches for CRSQ have been proposed but are sensitive to the number of moving objects. We propose an effective and non-centralized approach, Distributed Continuous Range-Skyline Query process (DCRSQ process), for supporting RSQ and CRSQ in mobile environments. By considering the mobility, the proposed approach can predict the time when an object falls in the query range and ignore more irrelevant information when deriving the results, thus saving the computation overhead. The proposed approach, DCRSQ process, is analyzed on cost and validated with extensive simulated experiments. The results show that DCRSQ process outperforms the existing approaches in different scenarios and aspects.
The development of Internet of Things (IoT) technology enables the rapid growth of connected smart devices and mobile applications. However, due to the constrained resources and limited battery capacity, there are bottlenecks when utilizing the smart devices. Mobile edge computing (MEC) offers an attractive paradigm to handle this challenge. In this work, we concentrate on the MEC application for IoT and deal with the energy saving objective via offloading workloads between cloud and edge. In this regard, we firstly identify the energy-related challenges in MEC. Then we present a green-aware framework for MEC to address the energy-related challenges, and provide a generic model formulation for the green MEC. We also discuss some state-of-the-art workloads offloading approaches to achieve green IoT and compare them in comprehensive perspectives. Finally, some future research directions related to energy efficiency in MEC are given.
