These days, healthcare applications on the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) network have been growing to deal with different diseases via different sensors. These healthcare sensors are connecting to the various healthcare fog servers. The hospitals are geographically distributed and offer different services to the patients from any ubiquitous network. However, due to the full offloading of data to the insecure servers, two main challenges exist in the IoMT network. (i) Data security of workflows healthcare applications between different fog healthcare nodes. (ii) The cost-efficient and QoS efficient scheduling of healthcare applications in the IoMT system. This paper devises the Cost-Efficient Service Selection and Execution and Blockchain-Enabled Serverless Network for Internet of Medical Things system. The goal is to choose cost-efficient services and schedule all tasks based on their QoS and minimum execution cost. Simulation results show that the proposed outperform all existing schemes regarding data security, validation by 10%, and cost of application execution by 33% in IoMT., Funding information: This work is financially supported by the Research grant of PIFI 2020 (2020VBC0002), China.

Present-day intelligent healthcare applications offer digital healthcare services to users in a distributed manner. The Internet of Healthcare Things (IoHT) is the mechanism of the Internet of Things (IoT) found in different healthcare applications, with devices that are attached to external fog cloud networks. Using different mobile applications connecting to cloud computing, the applications of the IoHT are remote healthcare monitoring systems, high blood pressure monitoring, online medical counseling, and others. These applications are designed based on a client–server architecture based on various standards such as the common object request broker (CORBA), a service-oriented architecture (SOA), remote method invocation (RMI), and others. However, these applications do not directly support the many healthcare nodes and blockchain technology in the current standard. Thus, this study devises a potent blockchain-enabled socket RPC IoHT framework for medical enterprises (e.g., healthcare applications). The goal is to minimize service costs, blockchain security costs, and data storage costs in distributed mobile cloud networks. Simulation results show that the proposed blockchain-enabled socket RPC minimized the service cost by 40%, the blockchain cost by 49%, and the storage cost by 23% for healthcare applications.

These days, the Industrial Internet of Healthcare Things (IIT) enabled applications have been growing progressively in practice. These applications are ubiquitous and run onto the different computing nodes for healthcare goals. The applications have these tasks such as online healthcare monitoring, live heartbeat streaming, and blood pressure monitoring and need a lot of resources for execution. In IIoHT, remote procedure call (RPC) mechanism-based applications have been widely designed with the network and computational delay constraints to run healthcare applications. However, there are many requirements of IIoHT applications such as security, network and computation, and failure efficient RPC with optimizing the quality of services of applications. In this study, the work devised the lightweight RPC mechanism for IIoHT applications and considered the hybrid constraints in the system. The study suggests the secure hybrid delay scheme (SHDS), which schedules all healthcare workloads under their deadlines. For the scheduling problem, the study formulated this problem based on linear integer programming, where all constraints are integer, as shown in the mathematical model. Simulation results show that the proposed SHDS scheme and lightweight RPC outperformed the hybrid for IIoHT applications and minimized 50% delays compared to existing RPC and their schemes., This work is financially supported by the Research grant of PIFI 2020 (2020VBC0002), Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (SIAT,CAS), Shenzhen, China.

In this paper we demonstrate the feasibility of IoT deployment for noise level measurement to time-limited and high-intense, high-volume data, events. Through an iterative process, a prototype solution were designed and implemented in a real-time, privacy-compliant IoT sensor system under tight constraints concerning budget and development time. Our sensor system enables festival management to easily track, document and further, by applying real time big data analytics to the harvested information, have fact-full insights generated for decision making in terms of resolving noise disturbances. The whole approach was demonstrated by the use of lightweight Internet of Things architecture demonstrating how web technologies can be used throughout the technology stack in and IoT big data analytics case.

This paper describes the use of Internet of Things as a solution for personal training, based on NFC wearable sensors mounted on garment like gym t-shirts and smart training units. Instead of sowing in wearable technology to every possible body part in motion, our solution builds on a sensory system applied to the object in training — such as a training mat, a barbell or a rod. The described study is underpinned by a research gap of-which a prototype solution (SmartPT) is developed to fill. Furthermore, the planning-, design-and development processes are described. Lastly, novel lessons learned and challenges faced when developing SmartPT are discussed, as well as possibilities for future research.
