Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Social Networks in IoT system is an interdisciplinary and international quarterly. It provides a common forum for representatives of anthropology, sociology, history, social psychology, political science, human geography, biology, economics, communications science and other disciplines who share an interest in the study of the empirical structure of social relations and associations that may be expressed in network form.

The aim of this Special Issue is to gather the most recent innovations in social network that support 5G smart city, multi-cloud computing in IoT, edge computing and ad hoc research to cope with the ever-increasing challenges of the social network. We would like to invite researchers and practitioners from different disciplines and methodological backgrounds to discuss new ideas, research questions, recent results, and future challenges in this emerging area of research and public interest.

Prof. Dr. Jia Wu
Guest Editor

Emotions are alluded to as characteristic intuitive perspectives from certain conditions or temperaments. IoT applications can help in routine tasks and businesses. Most advances have not been taken advantage of regarding emotions. Emotions could be detected via the data gathered through IoT. Our investigation of related works revealed an absence of strategic methodologies in planning IoT frameworks according to feelings and shrewd alteration rules; thus, we present a philosophy that can rapidly assist in planning an IoT framework in this situation, where the identification of users is significant. We applied the proposed phases to test an IoT recommender framework named ISUC. The framework involves anticipating a user’s future emotions by utilizing boundaries gathered from IoT gadgets. It suggests new exercises for the user to obtain the ‘last’ state. Experimental results confirm our recommended framework has achieved over 85% exactness in anticipating users’ emotions in the future. The examination results presumed that an IoT-based framework could be created to detect positive emotions (e.g., peace, concretism, patience, enjoyment, and comfort) and negative emotions (e.g., irritation, abstraction, impatience, displeasure, and discomfort) to incite good emotions.

Crowdsensing uses the sensing units of many participants with idle resources to collect data. Since the budget of the platform is limited, it is crucial to design a mechanism to motivate participants to lower their bids. Current incentive mechanisms assume that participants’ gains and losses are absolute, but behavioral economics shows that a certain reference point determines participants’ gains and losses. Reference dependence theory shows that the reference reward given by a platform and the reward obtained before will greatly affect the decision-making of the participant. Therefore, this paper proposes a participants’ decision-making mechanism based on the reference dependence theory. We set a reference point to reduce the participants’ bids, improving the platform’s utility. At the same time, risk preference reversal theory shows that participants evaluate the benefits based on the relative value of the rewards rather than the absolute value. Therefore, this paper proposes a winner selection mechanism based on the risk preference reversal theory. Theoretical analysis and simulations demonstrate that this paper’s incentive mechanism can guarantee the platform’s utility and improve the task completion rate. Full article

With the development of consumer-grade drone products, drones have been good carriers for many IoT (Internet of Things) applications, especially as a part of edge computing to deliver things, collect data, or monitor objects. This paper develops a Unity3D-based quadrotor dynamics simulation component on the original platform. In order to complete the simulation, a force analysis is performed for the quadrotor to establish a physical model based on Newtonian mechanics and Euler angles, and a PID (Proportion Integral Differential)-based control model is developed based on this physical model, which performs a fixed-point control for the simulation. The component introduces weather impact factors into the physical model through an environmental computational model and presents weather effects to the user interface. In addition, we add a scene customization function and a multi-aircraft formation flight function to the original simulation, and optimize the interface presentation scheme for multi-aircraft formation flight. The quadrotor simulation model in this paper solves the problem that the original simulation system is not realistic enough and significantly improves the usability and stability of quadrotors working in the IoT area.
