دانلود Secure and QoS-aware Communications for Smart Home Services

Abstract

In  this  paper,  we  present  the  combination  of  two concepts addressing important aspects for smart home services: a  new  quality  of  service  concept  and  a  new  integrated  concept for a smart home security system. We assume that every flat in a house has its own smart device to perform local services and act as an interface for the different sensors and actors inside the flat. These smart computers are interconnected using a plain switched Ethernet infrastructure. All different types of sensors and actors communicate  via  different  types  of  standards.  Based  on  the classification  of  each  service,  we  present  a  solution  to  prevent congestion situations inside the network. This scheme is not only applicable  to  the  presented  scenario,  it  could  also  be  applied to  handle  similar  problems  within  classical  computer  networks and many other fields. These advantages are realized within the affirmation  of  security  of  the  whole  system.  All  communication channels, all information and user-data and all kinds of access to the system are secured by a comprehensive security architecture.
