Abstract

Internet-of-Things (IoT)-enabled sensors and services have increased exponentially recently. Transmitting the massive generated data and control messages becomes an overhead on the communication system infrastructure. Many architectures and paradigms have been introduced to address the connection exploding, such as cloudlets, fog, and mist computing. Besides, software-related solutions, such as mobile Internet technologies and software-defined network also take part in mitigating the communication overhead. All of those new techniques have the same purposes summarized in achieving low latency, high throughput, and less storage and computing at the cloud level in addition to other objectives discussed through this survey. We list the proposed solutions, show their advantages and schemes, highlight some of the newest IoT-enabled applications, and show how they benefit from applying the new paradigms.
