| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 網路工程研究所 === 107 === As increasingly more IoT/M2M devices are connected to Internet, they will cause serious congestion to IoT/M2M systems normally deployed in the cloud. Alt-hough Cloud can scale out to support more data requests, it may not be able to satisfy the low latency demanded by certain IoT/M2M applications. Fog, as an edge of Cloud, can alleviate the congested problem in the cloud and provide low latency for critical IoT/M2M applications due to its proximity to IoT/M2M devic-es. In this research, we propose (1) utilizing oneM2M, a global IoT/M2M stand-ard, as the middleware to connect the cloud and the fog, (2) using Traffic Classi-fiers to intercept and divert IoT/M2M traffic requiring low latency to Fog and (3) deploying independent scalability mechanisms for Cloud and Fog. We demon-strate and verify our scalability design using a smart hospital use case and show that our proposed system can achieve better scalability results in terms of latency, CPU usage and power consumption compared to those with only Fog or Cloud.
