Integration of Wireless Sensor Network and Cloud Computing Using Trust and Reputation Technique

Cloud computing is a web-based computing where in the services based on Internet such as data, storage, and computing resources are delivered to the local devices through Internet. Meanwhile, wireless sensor network deals with monitoring and gathering of the information about the physical or environmental conditions. The integration of these two domains has tremendous advantages to improve the business infrastructure and performance overworldwide. The security of data on the cloud and calculation of trust and reputation of the cloud service providers (CSP) and sensor network providers (SNP) are the issues for this new paradigm. To fulfill these issues paper presents novel techniques 1) trust and reputation calculation 2) providing data security on cloud 3) choosing desirable CSP and SNP for the service. This paper proposes data security by taking into account the service of wireless sensor network (WSN) and cloud service providers. Our experimental results help users to choose the best service providers in case of both cloud and wireless sensor network. A better security for the data in the cloud is provided using trust and reputation calculation.
