The document discusses fog computing, which extends cloud computing and services to the edge of the network. It provides an overview of fog computing, including its history, advantages over existing systems, characteristics, differences from cloud computing, applications, and references. A group of 5 students at Daffodil International University submitted the document to their lecturer as part of a class project on fog computing.

4. Fog Computing is a technology that extends cloud
computing and services to the edge of the network.
It provides data, compute, storage and application
services to the users like cloud.
Fog computing is an emerging technology that is basically
used for Internet of Things.

5. The term fog computing is often associated with Cisco.
"Cisco Fog Computing" is a registered name; “fog
computing” is open to the community at large. The choice of
the word "fog" is meant to convey the idea that the
advantages of cloud computing can and should be brought
closer to the data source. (In meteorology, fog is simply a
cloud that is close to the ground).

7. Fog Computing

8. Cloud computing has provided
many opportunities for
enterprises by offering their
customers a range of computing
services. Current “pay-as-you-go”
Cloud computing model becomes an
efficient alternative to owning and
managing private data centers for
customers facing Web application.

9. Existing data protection mechanisms such as
encryption was failed in securing the data from the
attackers.
It does not verify whether the user was authorized
or not.
Cloud computing security does not focus on ways
of secure the data from unauthorized access.

10. Unlike traditional data centers, Fog
devices are geographically distributed
over heterogeneous platforms,
spanning multiple management
domains. Cisco is interested in
innovative proposals that facilitate
service mobility across platforms, and
technologies that preserve end-user
and content security and privacy
across domains.

11.  Fog can be distinguished from Cloud by its
proximity to end-users.
The dense geographical distribution and its
support for mobility.
It provides low latency, location awareness, and
improves quality-of-services (Qos) and real time
applications.

12. Edge location, location awareness, and low latency : Fog
computing support endpoints with finest services at the
edge of the network.
Geographical distribution : The services and application
objective of the fog is widely distributed.
Support for mobility : Using LISP protocol fog devices
provide mobility techniques like decouple host identity to
location identity.

13. Real time interactions : Fog computing requires real time
interactions for speedy service.
Heterogeneity : Fog nodes can be deployed in a wide
variety of environments.
Interoperability : Fog components must be able to
interoperate in order to give wide range of services like
streaming.

16. Tech giants Cisco and IBM are the driving forces
behind fog computing, and link their concept to the
emerging Internet of Things (IoT).
Most of the buzz around fog has a direct
correlation with the emergence of the Internet of
Things (IoT).
According to CISCO, the important areas where
fog would play a vital role are the following :

17. Connected Cars:
Fog computing is ideal for Connected Vehicles
(CV) because real-time interactions will make
communications between cars, access points and
traffic lights as safe and efficient as possible.
At some point in time, the connected car will start
saving lives by reducing automobile accidents.

18. Connected Vehicles communicating with each other

19. Smart Grids :
Fog computing allows fast, machine-to-machine
(M2M) handshakes and human to machine
interactions (HMI), which would work in
cooperation with the cloud.

20. Everything in the grids communicating with each other

21. Smart Cities:
Fog computing would be able to obtain sensor
data on all levels, and integrate all the mutually
independent network entities within.

22. Everything is connected in smart city

23. Health Care:
The cloud computing market for healthcare
was expected to reach $5.4 billion by 2017, and
fog computing would allow this on a more
localized level.

25. Every component of the home is inter-related, they are collecting data and analyzing them.

26. Every machines are communicating with each other.

27. Every sensor, machines are working together to better analyze the data.
