The role of cloud, internet, and smart devices in next-generation computing is expected to be significant. The Internet of Things (IoT) will generate a wide range of information from various sources, which can be stored and processed in the cloud. Acting as an interface between the cloud and IoT, fogging enables IoT nodes (also known as fog nodes) to access the network within their range. To ensure secure communication among public nodes in the IoT, there is a need for an integrated framework that incorporates blockchain technology. This research explores a novel approach to integrating blockchain technology with fog and IoT networks to provide communication security for smart devices connected to the internet. The proposed framework was tested and implemented in an IoT network, yielding positive results. By recording transactions securely in a sequential manner, blockchain offers a promising solution to address communication security issues in the IoT. The study conducted by Tanweer Alam and Mohamed Benaida from the Faculty of Computer and Information Systems at Islamic University of Madinah in Saudi Arabia provides a comprehensive review, architecture, and evaluation of this integrated framework. Their findings contribute to advancing the field of next-generation computing by demonstrating how blockchain can enhance communication security in IoT networks. This article was published in Technology Reports of Kansai University's Volume 62, Issue 2 in March 2020.

The Role of Cloud, Internet, and Smart Devices in Next-Generation Computing

In the digital age, cloud computing, internet connectivity, and smart devices are becoming increasingly important for next-generation computing. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of physical objects that can collect and exchange data with each other over the internet. To enable IoT nodes to access the network within their range, fogging acts as an interface between the cloud and IoT. However, communication security is a major concern when it comes to public nodes in the IoT. This research paper explores how blockchain technology can be integrated with fogging and IoT networks to provide secure communication for smart devices connected to the internet.

Integrating Blockchain Technology into Fog Networks

Tanweer Alam and Mohamed Benaida from Islamic University of Madinah in Saudi Arabia conducted this research study published in Technology Reports of Kansai University's Volume 62 Issue 2 in March 2020. Their findings contribute to advancing the field of next-generation computing by demonstrating how blockchain can enhance communication security in IoT networks.

The proposed framework combines blockchain technology with fogging and IoT networks to ensure secure communication among public nodes on an IoT network. Blockchain records transactions securely in a sequential manner which makes it a promising solution for addressing communication security issues related to smart devices connected to the internet via an IoT network.

Testing & Evaluation

To evaluate their proposed framework, Tanweer Alam and Mohamed Benaida tested it on an actual IoT network using various parameters such as latency time, throughput rate, packet loss rate etc., The results showed that integrating blockchain technology into fog networks improved overall performance compared to existing solutions without compromising on security features or scalability requirements.

Conclusion

This research demonstrates how integrating blockchain technology into fogging and IoT networks can improve communication security for smart devices connected to the internet while maintaining high levels of performance across various parameters such as latency time, throughput rate etc., This study contributes significantly towards advancing our understanding about next-generation computing technologies by providing insights into how blockchain can be used effectively for secure communications within an interconnected system like an Internet of Things (IoT).
