A Scalable Framework for Responsive Trustworthiness Dissemination in Social IoA

The Social Internet of Anything (SIoA) has recently emerged as a novel approach that fosters information sharing by connecting people, processes, data, and IoT devices through social networks. In this context, existing methodologies for managing the increasing number of connected entities and ensuring the dynamic and efficient dissemination and maintenance of trustworthiness information are often computationally intensive and time-consuming. As a result, this work introduces a scalable double-clustered architecture that leverages edge-fog computing alongside a novel framework to enable the responsive dissemination of available and updated trustworthiness information for entities within a Social Internet of Anything environment.
