Application-Aware Scheduling for IEEE 802.15.4e Time-Slotted Channel Hopping Using Software-Defined Wireless Sensor Network Slicing.

Given the improvements to network flexibility and programmability, software-defined wireless sensor networks (SDWSNs) have been paired with IEEE 802.15.4e time-slotted channel hopping (TSCH) to increase network efficiency through slicing.

Improving IoT Botnet Investigation Using an Adaptive Network Layer.

IoT botnets have been used to launch Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks affecting the Internet infrastructure. To protect the Internet from such threats and improve security mechanisms, it is critical to understand the botnets' intents and characterize their behavior. Current malware analysis solutions, when faced with IoT, present limitations in regard to the network access containment and network traffic manipulation.
