Internet of Things (IoT) is a technology that connects devices of different types and characteristics through a network. The massive quantity of the heterogeneous generated data by the sensors imposes many challenges in making these data available to IoT applications. Data reduction and preprocessing are promising concepts that help to handle these data efficiently before storing them. Applying data reduction methods at the edge has emerged as an efficient solution. In such context, this systematic mapping is intended to investigate the data reduction solutions performed exclusively at the edge through a set of research questions. To reach this objective, we performed a Systematic Literature Mapping (SLM) in which 35 papers were strictly analyzed among a total of 853 articles. Finally, we present the results of these analyses answering questions that relate to the researcher’s used techniques, hardware technologies, used data type, and contributed objects to perform the data reduction techniques on the edge of the IoT systems.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
