Industrial Internet of Things for smart manufacturing applications using hierarchical trustful resource assignment

Abstract

The manufacturing industry undergoes a new age with major changes taking place on several fronts. Companies devoted to digital transformation take their future plants inspired by the Internet of Things (IoT). The IoT is a worldwide network of interrelated physical devices,which is an essential component of the internet, including sensors, actuators, smart apps, computers, mechanical machines, and people. The effective allocation of the computing resources and the carrier is critical in the industrial internet of Things (IIoT) for smart production systems. Indeed, the existing assignment method in the smart production system cannot guarantee that resources meet the inherently complex and volatile requirements of the user are timely. Many research results on resource allocations in auction formats which have been implemented to consider the demand and real-time supply for smart development resources, but safety privacy and trust estimation issues related to these outcomes are not actively discussed. The paper proposes a Hierarchical Trustful Resource Assignment (HTRA) and Trust Computing algorithm (TCA) based on Vickrey–Clarke–Groves (VGCs) in the computer carriers necessary resources to communicate wirelessly among IIoT devices and gateways, and the allocation of CPU resources for processing information at the CPC. Finally, experimental findings demonstrate that when the IIoT equipment and gateways are effective, the utilities of each participant are improved.
