With the rapid enhancement in the design and development of the Internet of Things creates a new research interest in the adaptation in industrial domains. It is due to the impact of distributed emerging technology and topology of industrial Internet of Things and the security-related resource constraints of industrial 5.0. This conducts new paradigm along with critical challenges to the existing information preservation, node transactions and communication, transmission, trust and privacy, and security protection related problems. These critical aspects pose serious limitations and issues for the industry to provide industrial data integrity, information exchange reliability, provenance, and trustworthiness for the overall activities and service delivery prospects. In addition, the intersection of blockchain and industrial IoT has gained more consideration and research interest. However, there is an emerging limitation between the inadequate performance of industrial IoT and connected nodes, and the high resource requirement of permissioned private blockchain ledger has not yet been tackled with the complete solution. Due to the introductions of NuCypher Re-Encryption infrastructure, hashing tree and allocation, and deployment of blockchain proof-of-work required more computational power as well. This paper is divided into three different folds; first, we studied various related literature of blockchain-enabling industrial Internet of Things and its critical implementation challenging aspects along with the solution. Secondly, we proposed a blockchain hyperledger sawtooth-enabled framework. This framework provides a secure and trusted execution environment, in which service delivery mechanisms and protocols are designed with an acknowledgment, including the immutable ledger storage security, along with the peer-to-peer network on-chain and off-chain communication of industrial activities. Thirdly, we design pseudo-chain codes and consensus protocols to provide smooth industrial node streamline transactions and broadcast content. The proposed multiple proof-of-work investigated and simulated using Hyperledger Sawtooth-enabled docker for testing to exchange information between connected devices of industrial Internet of Things within the limited usage of resource constraints.

With the wide application of Internet-of-Medical-Things (IoMTs) or sensor nodes which equipped with sensors. These networked sensors are used to gather enormous data from different smart healthcare applications, and this collected data process for making appropriate decisions. Edge computing is an efficient platform that provides computational resources to collect sensor data. In the meantime, intelligent and accurate resource management by Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become the center of attention, especially in healthcare systems. With the help of AI, IoMT based healthcare devices will remarkably enhance the computational speed and range. But the challenging issue in these energy-hungry, short battery life, and delay intolerant portable devices is inappropriate and inefficient classical trends of fair resource allotment. Thus, this paper proposes Computation Offloading using Reinforcement Learning (CORL) scheme to minimize latency and energy consumption. We first formulate the problem as a combined latency and energy cost minimization problem, satisfying the lack of limited battery capacity and service latency deadline constraints. Moreover, proposed algorithm search optimal available resources node to offload task towards the trade-off between energy and latency. The experimental results show the benefits of the proposed scheme in terms of saving energy, minimizing latency, and maximum utilization of node resources in edge-enabled sensor networks. We are using an iFogSim simulator to validate the proposed scheme under realistic assumptions.

Network Traffic Classification is a central topic nowadays in the field of computer science. It is a very essential task for Internet service providers (ISPs) to know which types of network applications flow in a network. Network Traffic Classification is the first step to analyze and identify different types of applications flowing in a network. Through this technique, internet service providers or network operators can manage the overall performance of a network. There are many methods traditional technique to classify internet traffic like Port Based, Pay Load Based and Machine Learning Based technique. The most common technique used these days is Machine Learning (ML) technique. Which is used by many researchers and got very effective accuracy results. In this paper, we discuss network traffic classification techniques step by step and real time internet data set is develop using network traffic capture tool, after that feature extraction tool is use to extract features from the capture traffic and then four machine learning classifiers Support Vector Machine, C4.5 decision tree, Naïve Bays and Bayes Net classifiers are applied. Experimental analysis shows that C4.5 classifiers gives very good accuracy result as compare to other classifies.
