In Internet of Things (IoT) networks, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) play a critical role as mobile nodes that can be deployed to carry out data collection and computation. In this respect, this paper considers an operator that deploys UAVs to satisfy requests from IoT applications that require Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) that may communicate with one another to be executed at different geographical locations. To this end, this paper formulates a novel Mixed Integer Linear Program (MILP) t...

Many industries now rely on drones to monitor infrastructures. In this respect, this article considers maximizing the revenue of an Industrial Internet of Things operator that provides two services: 1) data trading; and 2) drones rental. In service 1), the operator sells data of locations/points it acquired via drones. For service 2), it rents idle drones to users. The problem at hand is to determine the allocation of drones to services 1) and 2) that maximizes the operator's revenue over a...
