Abstract-The Internet of Things (IoT), often referred as the future Internet; is a collection of interconnected devices integrated into the world-wide network that covers almost everything and could be available anywhere. IoT is an emerging technology and aims to play an important role in saving money, conserving energy, eliminating gap and better monitoring for intensive management on a routine basis. On the other hand, it is also facing certain design constraints such as technical challenges, social challenges, compromising privacy and performance tradeoffs. This paper surveys major technical limitations that are hindering the successful deployment of the IoT such as standardization, interoperability, networking issues, addressing and sensing issues, power and storage restrictions, privacy and security, etc. This paper categorizes the existing research on the technical constraints that have been published in the recent years. With this categorization, we aim to provide an easy and concise view of the technical aspects of the IoT. Furthermore, we forecast the changes influenced by the IoT. This paper predicts the future and provides an estimation of the world in year 2020 and beyond.

Abstract-Community detection in network is of vital importance to find cohesive subgroups. Node attributes can improve the accuracy of community detection when combined with link information in a graph. Community detection using node attributes has not been investigated in detail. To explore the aforementioned idea, we have adopted an approach by modifying the Louvain algorithm. We have proposed Louvain-ANDAttribute (LAA) and Louvain-OR-Attribute (LOA) methods to analyze the effect of using node attributes with modularity. We compared this approach with existing community detection approaches using different datasets. We found the performance of both algorithms better than Newman's Eigenvector method in achieving modularity and relatively good results of gain in modularity in LAA than LOA. We used density, internal and external edge density for the evaluation of quality of detected communities. LOA provided highly dense partitions in the network as compared to Louvain and Eigenvector algorithms and close values to Clauset. Moreover, LOA achieved few numbers of edges between communities.

Abstract-Collaborative Working Environments (CWEs) are getting prominence these days. With the increase in the use of collaboration tools and technologies, a lot of sharing and privacy issues have also emerged. Due to its dynamic nature, a CWE needs to adapt the changes into accordingly. In this paper, we have implemented the Adaptive Dynamic Sharing and Privacy-aware Role Based Access Control (Adaptive DySP-RBAC) model which provides user's information privacy to dynamically adapt the changes occurring in the system at any time. The proposed model has been implemented as a prototype and tested. Results have shown that our system efficiently and effectively adapts access rules according to the changes happening in a CWE along with preserving the user's information privacy in the system.
