An Efficient Friendship Selection Mechanism for an Individual’s Small World in Social Internet of Things

Internet of Things is an enticing paradigm for the last few decades and becoming popular in the researcher's community. The conversion of every physical object into the smart object is their goal. Besides, the idea of emerging IoT with Social networking concept has also gained significant popularity by which the smart objects can broadly interact with each other. The resulting paradigm Social Internet of Things (SIoT) is the promising platform for contemporary applications and services. Presently, the SIoTs proved to be ingenious, but the IoTs growing exponentially which can evolve a challenging situation while probing precise service or object among billions of objects. Small-world phenomena have exposed some exciting facts and instigated scholars to discover the concealed connections between two people around the globe. This research consolidates the Social IoT technique with the concept of small-world. By incorporating the properties of small-world in Social IoTs, we influential the Smart Social Agent (SSA). SSA guarantees to search suitable friendships (i.e. Friend IoT objects) and the user's requested services without human involvement. SSA could be any object in SIoTs.
