Currently, Internet of Things (IoT) is a technological paradigm that is based on the collection of environmental data on a multitude of parameters (climatic, industrial, human, among others) through everyday objects to send it to higher instances such as data centers or cloud computing services, where it is processed and stored. Under this concept, despite the benefits of equipping any device with exceptional capacities, significant congestion is generated in the network as a result of an increasing number of connections. Consequently, fog computing emerges as a valid solution, since by performing local data pre-processing, the transmitted load is reduced. In addition, it grants the possibility of implementing adequate security measures, ensuring the veracity of the information. This research proposes the design of an IoT system for measuring environmental variables, consisting on a WSN, fog computing and cloud computing, which deploys end-to-end encryption techniques. Different tests are carried out, using the concept of living labs, reflected in a Web application that contemplates measurements of three indicators: carbon dioxide levels, polluting particles and environmental noise.

The constant development of information and communication technologies (ICTs) is leading to the birth of dynamic network ecosystems, as a result of the requirements of new applications that seek to improve the living conditions of society. In this sense, network administrator management is evolving towards centralized, scalable and resilient processes that go beyond the data center limits and reach WAN providers. This transition supports its foundation in the implementation of cloud-based solutions in conjunction with traditional technologies, giving rise to hybrid scenarios that meet the needs of users and increasingly demanding organizations. This paper proposes the deployment of a hybrid cloud formed by the convergence between a public cloud (Azure) and a private cloud (Openstack) through a secure channel consisting of a virtual private network (VPN). The main objective is to evaluate performance metrics in high traffic scenarios (iPerf) and VoIP services (SIPp). Stress tests are performed to determine the throughput in the hybrid cloud, demonstrating its success and efficiency.

The domotic solutions that benefit households and many companies today depend almost entirely of an Internet connection. Sometimes it is not always possible to have a link or permanent access to the Internet. This project provides the basis to look for an alternative that facilitates the control and monitoring of lights and electronic devices through a telephone call, through the use of an IP PBX. This research exposes the guidelines and activities carried out for the design and implementation of a prototype for the supervision and monitoring of lights and electronic devices through a PBX, using a wireless solution based on IoT, which serves as a base for the search of technological solutions using platforms of access and development as Arduino and Raspberry, obtaining energy and economic savings. Likewise, seeks to optimize the variables of time, cost and benefit that can provide the communities the use of domotic systems, the use of the necessary resources provided by data networks and telecommunications to perform actions remotely. For this, VoIP systems are used, converting the Raspberry card into a PBX plant with the software on a server based on Asterisk and two extensions were configured with the SIP telephony protocol, one of the most used at a corporate level. With respect to IoT, its four pillars (People, Processes, Data and Things) have created the need to have a society that empowers the new generations of digital citizens who understand the emerging technologies offered by IoT, the impact it has on the community, the widespread adoption of the same and the correct application of the information captured. For the prototype, we have used components (sensors) that can work, or that can act as a starting point for an IoT solution.

In a world where approximately 15% of the population lives with some form of disability one of the most vulnerable groups is constituted by children that present multiple disabilities. For example, in these cases, a child can have cerebral palsy and hearing loss concomitantly. Working with children with multiple disabilities constitutes a challenge, given that they present affectation in several development areas. For these reasons, we have developed a system to support the educational and therapeutic intervention for children with multiple disabilities. Our system relies on an electronic device and an ontology that models some of the most relevant entities and relations of therapy sessions. This proposal has been validated in two stages: (i) a preliminary validation (aesthetic and functionality) with 37 volunteers (higher education students), and (ii) a validation on a real scenario with 6 children with multiple disabilities during a period of two months. The results show high levels of motivation when children work with the device and positive comments by therapists and educators side.
