A Query based Information search in an Individual’s Small World of Social Internet of Things

Abstract

Recently, the consolidation of Social Network and the Internet of Things (IoT) acquiring appreciation and consideration among researchers due to its immense and adaptable behavior. Social Internet of Things (SIoT) comprehends the adequacy to support the inventive applications and network services with adept and persuasive demeanors. The author’s exertion for this research provides the subsistence to the SIoT amelioration Currently, the SIoT technique proven to be competent, but the exponential growth of heterogeneous smart devices may arise a challenging scenario. Searching the right object, service, or best path to the informative nodes in such highly convoluted networks is always a challenging task. This research strengthen the SIoT paradigm by consolidating the properties of the individual’s Small World. In addition, this research also advises a Smart Social Agent (SSA) to minimize the human intervention. The absolute objective of this paper is two-fold, (i) transformation of SIoT network into Individual’s Small World SIoT network, (ii) searching the right information efficiently by exploiting SSA. To accomplish the goal we have proposed an efficient Query based Searching algorithm which exploits Service Oriented properties of Individual’s Small World SIoT network and searches information. First result shows the significant alleviation in the network complexity, reduces the average path length, and network diameter. Eventually, it improves the network scalability and navigability. While second result shows that the proposed Query based searching algorithm proves to be efficient with its mean execution time not more than 2.66 ms for complete network on two different machines. Whereas, for Individual’s small world network the mean execution time is not more than 2.47 ms for both machine.
