Generic Access Control System for Ad Hoc MCC and Fog Computing
The goal of this paper is to propose an approach based on DHT toward access control for ad hoc MCC and Fog computing. We rely on Chord DHTs to create a scalable, generic and robust access control solution. We use simulations to evaluate the performances of the proposal. We focus on a set of metrics to measure the overhead of the system. We considered a variable network size, a variable responsible nodes percentage and different hash function as simulation parameter. The obtained results show acceptable overhead for relatively average networks sizes. Simulations show that all the metrics increase with the nodes number and the number of responsible nodes.
