Abstract:

Internet of Things (IoT) has been developed as a heterogeneous environment that contains network devices with limited resources. The application of IoT principles in the smart city domain creates new opportunities and requires diligent implementation mechanisms for optimal resource utilization. With time, the IoT applications tend to generate and forward a huge amount of data in the smart cities and require a real-time response from the servers. Due to this, the traditional cloud computing architecture is unable to handle the latency-sensitive applications efficiently, and hence, the FoG architecture has been widely implemented with IoT devices to efficiently retrieve or forward the data. For the comprehensive utilization of the resources in the FoG systems-based smart cities, various energy-aware resource allocation schemes have been discussed in this chapter. The schemes suggest different mechanisms to access the required contents with minimal energy consumptions for the applications that are used in smart cities.
