  1. Internet-of-Things (IoTs) are becoming more and more popular in our life. IoT devices are generally designed for sensing or actuation purposes. However, the current sensing system on IoT devices lacks the understanding of sensing needs, which diminishes the sensing flexibility, isolation, and security when multiple sensing applications need to use sensor resources. In this work, we propose VirtSense, an ARM TrustZone based virtual sensing system, to provide each sensing application a virtual sensor instance, which further enables a safe, flexible and isolated sensing environment on the IoT devices. Our preliminary results show that VirtSense: 1) can provide virtual sensor instance for each sensing application so that the sensing needs of each application will be satisfied without affecting others; 2) is able to enforce access control policy even under an untrusted environment.

  2. Sensory IoT (Internet of Things) networks are widely applied and studied in recent years and have demonstrated their unique benefits in various areas. In this paper, we bring the sensor network to an application scenario that has rarely been studied - the academic cleanrooms. We design SENSELET++, a low-cost IoT sensing platform that can collect, manage and analyze a large amount of sensory data from heterogeneous sensors. Furthermore, we design a novel hybrid anomaly detection framework which can detect both time-critical and complex non-critical anomalies. We validate SENSELET++ through the deployment of the sensing platform in a lithography cleanroom. Our results show the scalability, flexibility, and reliability properties of the system design. Also, using real-world sensory data collected by SENSELET++, our system can analyze data streams in real-time and detect shape and trend anomalies with a 91% true positive rate.
