Architecting a hybrid cross layer dew-fog-cloud stack for future data-driven cyber-physical systems
Marc Eduard Frincu · 2017
The Internet of Things is gaining traction due to the emergence of smart devices surrounding our daily lives. These cyber-physical systems (CPS) are highly distributed, communicate over wi-fi or wireless and generate massive amounts of data. In addition, many of these systems require near real-time control (RTC). In this context, future IT platforms will have to adapt to the Big Data challenge by bringing intelligence to the edge of the network (dew computing) for low latency fast local decisions while keeping at the same time a centralized control based on well-established scalable and fault tolerant technologies brought to life by cloud computing.
