FogProtect: Protecting Sensitive Data in the Computing Continuum

A Data Protection Focused Adaptation Engine for Distributed Video Analytics Pipelines

“…If M is better than the best solution in regard to a specific comparison metric, the best solution is replaced by M , the path to the best solution is stored, and the comparison ends (line [12][13][14][15][16]. The comparison also ends if M is worse than the best solution (line [17][18][19]. It is important to state that the amount of PCP instances will always be the first metric that will be used for comparison (line 9).…”

“…In this paper, we present a data protection focused adaptation engine that leverages the applicationand infrastructure based adaptation space of a distributed VAP. The engine employs an extended system model and adaptation rules that are based on previous research which was conducted within a collaborative H2020 project [19], namely FogProtect 1 . The motivating use case also stems from a real problem scenario by one of the projects partners.…”
