Almost in every heavily computation-dependent application, from 6G communication systems to autonomous driving platforms, a large portion of computing should be near to the client side. Edge computing (AI at Edge) in mobile devices is one of the optimized approaches for addressing this requirement. Therefore, in this work, the possibilities and challenges of implementing a low-latency and power-optimized smart mobile system are examined. Utilizing Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) based solutions at the edge will lead to bandwidth-optimized designs and as a consequence can boost the computational effectiveness at a system-level deadline. Moreover, various performance aspects and implementation feasibilities of Neural Networks (NNs) on both embedded FPGA edge devices (using Xilinx Multiprocessor System on Chip (MPSoC)) and Cloud are discussed throughout this research. The main goal of this work is to demonstrate a hybrid system that uses the deep learning programmable engine developed by Xilinx Inc. as the main component of the hardware accelerator. Then based on this design, an efficient system for mobile edge computing is represented by utilizing an embedded solution.

Within this the work applicability of Physical LayerSecurity (PHYSEC) based key management within Long RangeWide Area Network (LoRaWAN) is proposed and evaluatedusing an experimental testbed. Since Internet of Things (IoT)technologies have been arising in past years, they have as wellattracted attention for possible cyber attacks. While LoRaWANalready provides many of the features needed in order to ensuresecurity goals such as data confidentiality and integrity, it lacksin measures such as secure key management and distributionschemes. Since conventional solutions are not feasible here, e.g.due to constraints on payload size and power consumption, wepropose the usage of PHYSEC based session key management,which can provide the respective measures in a more lightweightway. The results derived from our testbed show that it can be apromising alternative approach.

Deception boosts security for systems and components by denial, deceit, misinformation, camouflage and obfuscation. In this work an extensive overview of the deception technology environment is presented. Taxonomies, theoretical backgrounds, psychological aspects as well as concepts, implementations, legal aspects and ethics are discussed and compared.
