Abstract

The ability to provide a high Quality of Service is a crucial aspect in the acceptance and widespread dispersion of the Industrial Internet of Things and it has a key role to enhance the end user experience. The emerging fog cloud computing architectural concept aims to diminish the experienced latency while simultaneously providing a seemingly unlimited quantity of computational power by moving computations from the cloud and things to the edge. To enhance the reliability, fault-tolerance, and connectivity of the data transmission, the transport layer protocol Stream Control Transport Protocol may be applied. To this end, we analyzed the feasibility of this protocol for an Industrial Internet of Things and fog computing setting by demonstrating and conducting essential network performance measurements. Our results reveal, that the protocol is a valid candidate for industrial scenarios in a fog computing environment and that it outperforms established Internet transport layer protocols in several of the conducted measurements.
