Abstract

FogAware is a research project that faces two topics in the domain of Fog Computing: resource orchestration and security. With fog computing, many heterogeneous devices, e.g., from Arduino-like microcontrollers to smart cameras or System On Chip computers, will be enrolled in a unique pool of abstract resources that have to be efficiently managed. This is translated into the need for designing and testing new application-aware resource management algorithms, which is exactly the first main focus of the project. The other main topic of the project concerns security. With fog computing, the edge devices that are part of the platform may become the Achille's heel of a whole application. These devices can in fact often much more easily hacked than a cloud server. For example, smart plugs use a fully flagged web server exposing REST end-points for the switch on/off commands and a simple port scan attack may reveal important information of the device. FogAware will address this issue by studying new algorithms for security monitoring and device attestation.
