Mohamed-Aymen Chalouf - Intelligent Security Management and Control in the IoT

In this chapter, we tackled the question of decision-making for effective access to a radio network or a spectrum band in the IoT. An IoT object, having several interfaces and/or with cognitive capacities, can detect several access networks or radio communication channels. Thus, it may be led to choose the access network or radio communication channel that best meets the QoS constraints of the IoT application as well as its energy constraints. Selecting the most appropriate network or radio communication channel will allow the object to remain best connected. In this chapter, we focused on the functioning of the multicriteria decision-making module that we have suggested to tackle the problem of scalability. However, many approaches (Lounis et al. 2012; Gia et al. 2015; Guo et al. 2017; Firouzi et al. 2018; Shrestha et al. 2018; Khan and Lee 2019) have been proposed to solve the scalability issues in an IoT system. In our context, this question remains very important. This is why we plan to study it in future work.
