The Foundation is also the official source for the OPC Certification Program, which ensures that OPC products plug-and-play in real-world applications.
A reference architecture for the internet of thingsCharles Gibbons
The document proposes a reference architecture for the Internet of Things (IoT). It consists of distributed devices that communicate using various protocols. These devices are supported by a distributed service layer that provides functions like messaging, data transformation and protocol support. This service layer connects to business support systems providing capabilities like fulfilment, assurance and billing. The architecture supports various channels for device management and integration with identity management systems.
The document presents an overview of Internet of Things (IoT) concepts and proposes a reference architecture for IoT. It discusses core IoT concerns like connectivity, device management, data handling and security. It describes common IoT device types like Arduino, Raspberry Pi and communication protocols like HTTP, MQTT, CoAP. The proposed reference architecture aims to provide a scalable and secure way to interact with billions of connected devices by addressing issues like management, data processing and disaster recovery. An example implementation of the architecture for an RFID attendance tracking system is also presented.
This document summarizes an Internet of Things (IoT) meetup that covered various topics:
- Introduction to IoT and how objects can transfer data over networks.
- Introduction to cloud computing and how resources are shared over the internet.
- IoT architecture including things, gateways, and networks/cloud.
- IoT gateways like Raspberry Pi that interface devices and cloud.
- Sensor interfaces like XBee and RS-485 that connect to gateways.
- Network interfaces like WiFi and GPRS to connect gateways to cloud.
- Cloud architecture models from various sources.
- Data acquisition from devices using open-source Ponte software.
- Data storage
How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends:
Exposing the device to a management framework
Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic
Exposing that business layer and data to end users.
This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles between cloud, APIs and native hardware/software configurations.

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...SOFTTECHHUB
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
