Evaluating Scalable Work Distribution Using IoT Devices in Fog Computing Scenarios

• This article explores a solution using fog computing and Internet of Things technologies to address some of the drawbacks with cloud computing. We show the potential in the combination of scalable distributed systems technologies, for enabling a distributed cluster using typical lightweight IoT devices. Answering research questions related to the expected overhead, as well as how work and chunk size affect the computational time and scalability of the system. All in order to evaluate the performance and potential of this technology for Industry 5.0 and future industrial IoT applications. Our results show the great potential of the approach, but we also identify necessary improvements that needs to be made in order to achieve performance superiority over the traditional cloud approaches and for the technology to truly proliferate.
