Edge analytics in the internet of things
Open accessAbstract
High-data-rate sensors, such as video cameras, are becoming ubiquitous in the Internet of Things. This article describes GigaSight, an Internet-scale repository of crowd-sourced video content, with strong enforcement of privacy preferences and access controls. The GigaSight architecture is a federated system of VM-based cloudlets that perform video analytics at the edge of the Internet, thus reducing the demand for ingress bandwidth into the cloud. Denaturing, which is an owner-specific reduction in fidelity of video content to preserve privacy, is one form of analytics on cloudlets. Content-based indexing for search is another form of cloudlet-based analytics. This article is part of a special issue on smart spaces.

The hierarchical architecture has gradually linked cloudlets to other forms of Edge Computing, particularly as local solutions to high latency and low bandwidth problems for IoT applications.
“Logically, this hierarchical architecture has gradually linked cloudlets to other forms of Edge Computing, in particular as local solutions to high latency and low bandwidth problems for IoT applications [97].”
From Edge AI: A survey (2023) · cites this paper as [97]
The Internet section (page not provided) describes cloudlets as the middle tier of a device–cloudlet–cloud hierarchy. It says cloudlets were originally motivated by latency, while their use in the IoT-focused GigaSight system is based solely on bandwidth. It does not describe a gradual linkage to other forms of edge computing. (LLM, conf=0.85)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe edge computing paradigm offers a way to process data at the edge of the network to address concerns such as bandwidth saving, as well as data safety and privacy.
“As noted by Satyanarayanan et al. [32,33] and Shi et al. [34,35], the edge computing paradigm offers a way to process data at the edge of the network to address concerns such as bandwidth saving, as well as data safety and privacy.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
