A Vision of Dew-IoT Ecosystem: Requirements, Architecture, and Challenges

Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized the way of augmenting the physical-digital interaction. However, it lacks the holistic conceptualization about the integration notions which is related to the human-in-the-loop centric design paradigm. Thus, dew computing comes into the scenario to improve the human- aware personalized service provisioning at the edge of the network. A proper alignment between IoT and dew computing can minimize the gap of realizing the human-in-the-loop aspect in correlation to the IoT domain. This article presents a novel dew- IoT architecture to resolve such issues while inculcating dew computing-based metrics as a key enabler. We also discuss key requirements behind the integration of dew computing to IoT for efficient humanized service mitigation. We also highlight key challenges and provide the future road map.
