Student Activity: Toward a More Sustainable Campus through Innovative Design and Practical Application
Presenting a Seminar at Department of Computer Science .
On 6/2/2019, the computer science Department held a seminar by Assistant Lecturer Sadeer Dheyaa Abdulameer entitled (Fog Computing).
The evolution of internet of things (IOT) , vehicle systems , real time applications result in huge amount of data to be processed (data explosion).which are difficult to be processed by cloud computing. Due to challenges such as demands on real time response or latency-sensitive applications which are lacked in cloud computing.
Industry experts have warned that the cloud-computing models deployed in many IoT systems today are ill equipped to deal with the volume of data generated by billions of IoT devices that are slated to go online in the next couple of years. To add to this, these devices also generate data in a multitude of formats using a variety of protocols, making their acquisition and real-time processing difficult. Based on these issue the concept of fog computing introduced.
Fog computing is a term created by Cisco researcher in 2012 that is used to describe computing on devices in an intermediate layer called the fog layer. The fog layer between the cloud and the IoT edge devices.
* The fog layer consists of fog nodes, which are essentially industrial controllers, gateway computers, switches, and I/O devices that provide computing, storage, and connectivity services.
* The fog computing model extends the cloud closer to the edge of your network where the devices reside, and facilitates edge intelligence.
* The fog computing paradigm was invented to be as a complementary to cloud computing and offer services at the edge of the network i.e. close to end-user and end devices. Therefore it aimed to reduce the latency of applications.
* This further makes fog computing a practical solution to latency, delivering high quality multimedia application process data with low delay and packet loss.
