- Implementation and Evaluation of QUIC protocol on Internet of Things Monitoring SolutionsPublication . Almeida, Luis Filipe Pereira de; Silva, Bruno Miguel Correia daIoT is a technology that ensures the possibility of significantly improving our lives by connecting hardware devices and everyday objects to the internet. Subsequently, these devices will be used to collect, transfer, and analyze vast amount of data, which can then be used to act on our environment or interact with us directly. The market for this technology is rapidly expanding in various sectors such as transportation, manufacturing, healthcare, among others. Due to this, IoT is also undergoing rapid evolution, requiring the development of fast, secure, and reliable communications. In an attempet to address the issues refered before, the use of QUIC in IoT technology is being explored as an alternative to currently used internet transport protocols. Although initially designed to operate in conjunction with HTTP/3, it has features that can benefit IoT, such as low latency compared to the TCP protocol, multiplexing that resolves head-of-line blocking found in TCP, and the use of a connection ID to enable connection migration. This dissertation explores the implementation of the QUIC protocol on IoT monitoring solutions. We aim to develop, implement and evaluate this implementation by comparison to other well known and used IoT-related protocols, such as, HTTP, UDP, MQTT and CoAP. This work explores the use of the QUIC protocol in a real-world scenario. This scenario will be the RuralTHINGS project, which focuses on creating an intelligent system for monitoring health-hazardous gases, such as radon gas and carbon dioxide, in residential areas. The main objectives are to discover the advantages and disadvantages of using the QUIC protocol, the scenarios in which it should be used, and how it compares to other similar protocols.
