Industry 4.0 will only become a reality through the convergence of Operational and Information Technologies (OT & IT), which use different computation communication technologies. Cloud Computing cannot be used for OT involving industrial applications, since it guarantee stringent non-functional requirements, e.g., dependability, trustworthiness timeliness. Instead, new computing paradigm, calle...

Delivering cloud-like computing facilities at the network edge provides services with ultra-low-latency access, yielding highly responsive to application requests. The concept of fog has emerged as a paradigm that adds layers nodes between and cloud, also known micro data centers , xmlns:xlink=...
