The Fog Computing Paradigm for the Internet of Things
Nowadays, the Internet of Things, alongside with other phenomena like Big Data, become technology trends. The industry predicts that by 2020 there will be 50 billion devices of IoT. The Internet of Things itself remain hard to define. Moreover, there are many technologies and paradigms involved, which makes the last task harder. In this paper, we investigate the relationship between the Internet of Things and an emergent concept of computing: the Fog. We will present the reference framework to understand the Internet of Things (IoT). We also introduce the concept of Fog computing and discuss its relationship to Cloud computing and the IoT. We also present the reference framework to understand the Internet of Things paradigm. The components of the fog computing are also discussed. A presentation of the reference architecture RA for Fog computing introduced by the biggest company of the industry will be given in this paper.
