Although IoT devices excel at real-time data collection and decision-making, their performance on complex tasks is hindered by limited power, resources, and time. To address this, IoT is often combined with cloud computing (CC) to meet time-sensitive demands. However, the distance between IoT devices and cloud servers can result in latency issues.</span></p><p class="ICST-abstracttext"><span lang="EN-GB">OBJECTIVES: To mitigate latency challenges, Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) is integrated with IoT. MEC offers cloud-like services through servers located near network edges and IoT devices, enhancing device responsiveness by reducing transmission and processing latency. This study aims to develop a solution to optimize task offloading in IoT-MEC environments, addressing challenges like latency, uneven workloads, and network congestion.</span></p><p class="ICST-abstracttext"><span lang="EN-GB">METHODS: This research introduces the Game Theory-Based Task Latency (GTBTL-IoT) algorithm, a two-way task offloading approach employing Game Matching Theory and Data Partitioning Theory. Initially, the algorithm matches IoT devices with the nearest MEC server using game-matching theory. Subsequently, it splits the entire task into two halves and allocates them to both local and MEC servers for parallel computation, optimizing resource usage and workload balance.</span></p><p class="ICST-abstracttext"><span lang="EN-GB">RESULTS: GTBTL-IoT outperforms existing algorithms, such as the Delay-Aware Online Workload Allocation (DAOWA) Algorithm, Fuzzy Algorithm (FA), and Dynamic Task Scheduling (DTS), by an average of 143.75 ms with a 5.5 s system deadline. Additionally, it significantly reduces task transmission, computation latency, and overall job offloading time by 59%. Evaluated in an ENIGMA-based simulation environment, GTBTL-IoT demonstrates its ability to compute requests in real-time with optimal resource usage, ensuring efficient and balanced task execution in the IoT-MEC paradigm.</span></p><p class="ICST-abstracttext"><span lang="EN-GB">CONCLUSION: The Game Theory-Based Task Latency (GTBTL-IoT) algorithm presents a novel approach to optimize task offloading in IoT-MEC environments. By leveraging Game Matching Theory and Data Partitioning Theory, GTBTL-IoT effectively reduces latency, balances workloads, and optimizes resource usage.

Ayurvedic principles, which focus on the Dosha, offer a profound understanding of an individual's constitution, influencing their health, vulnerability to specific diseases, and ideal dietary choices. This paper explores the evolving intersection of ancient Ayurvedic wisdom and modern technology in the realm of disease diagnosis. Ayurveda, with its emphasis on personalized well-being, has long been a source of holistic health practices. In this context, the study delves into the intricate system of Ayurvedic Dosha analysis and its potential applications in contemporary healthcare. The research introduces an innovative way that seamlessly integrates traditional Ayurvedic pulse examination with state-of-the-art technology. By employing pulse sensors and advanced algorithms, the system not only identifies specific ailments but also classifies patients into Ayurvedic Prakriti types. Going beyond conventional diagnosis, this holistic approach extends to personalized recommendations, encompassing diet, lifestyle, Ayurvedic treatments, exercise, and daily routines. While addressing the challenges of harmonizing ancient principles with modern technology, the paper also presents the performance metrics of the model. The accuracy rates are as follows: Logistic Regression (LR) - 85.94%, Random Forest - 89.21%, Decision Tree - 99.70%, and k-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) - 86.43%. These metrics underscore the robustness of the system. In addition to outlining core concepts, methodologies, and model accuracies, the study explores current trends and recent developments in the field, offering readers a comprehensive understanding of Ayurvedic Dosha-based disease diagnosis. The research contributes to the broader discourse on healthcare by paving the way for early detection and individualized, holistic well-being for patients.</p></description> <dc:creator>Kuldeep Vayadande, Chudaman D.

WSNs consist of a collection of resource-constrained sensors that gather data, which is then utilized for decision-making and analysis, leading to improvements in quality of service, management, and efficiency. However, the open nature of WSNs exposes them to numerous vulnerabilities and threats. Operating in potentially hostile and unattended environments makes these networks attractive targets for adversaries. Therefore, it is essential to detect the presence of malicious attacks within the networks and implement robust security systems to address these challenges. While traditional security mechanisms such as authentication and cryptographic methods are commonly employed, they often fall short in effectively countering the dynamic nature of modern attacks. Hence, IDS (Intrusion Detection System) tends to continuously monitor the network and detect potential threats in real-time scenarios. This method possess the ability of identifying, responding promptly, preventing and thus ensures resilience of the network. Therefore, the present study reviews the various intrusion detection techniques and data collection methods. The main aim of the study is to investigate the design challenges of deploying IDS in a WSN environment. So, the study analysed the AI (Artificial Intelligence) based techniques involved in intrusion detection and how these techniques could be adopted in WSN. In addition, the comparative analysis of several ML (Machine Learning) and DL (Deep Learning) algorithms are also deliberated to portray the different deployment technique with corresponding outcomes. Further, the main challenges faced by each studies with their limitations are specified for supporting future researchers in developing new trends in intrusion detection for WSN.</p></description> <dc:creator>Sabeena S, Chitra S</dc:creator> <dc:rights> Copyright (c) 2024 EAI Endorsed Transactions on Internet of Things https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ </dc:rights> <cc:license rdf:resource="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/" /> <guid isPermaLink="true">https://publications.eai.eu/index.php/IoT/article/view/7178</guid> <pubDate>Wed, 27 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate> </item> <item> <title>Brackish water parameters monitoring dashboard using Internet of things and industry 4.0</title> <link>https://publications.eai.eu/index.php/IoT/article/view/6860</link> <description><p class="ICST-abstracttext"><span lang="EN-GB">INTRODUCTION: Brackish water aquaculture plays a crucial role in meeting the growing global demand for seafood.
