In the past decade, the academia, industry 4.0 and end-user interest has also grown drastically in IoT applications and their services. However, this increase in IoT services demand has witnessed a new challenge of seamless interaction among heterogeneous devices that are varied, diverse and dynamic in nature. In this connection, another challenge is tracing the footprint of these IoT interactions for trust-based interactions, that further becomes complex with the introduction of new applications. For instance, in many situations, IoT services are generally not self-contained and sufficient. They need to coordinate and interact with other IoT services held in the surroundings. The large-scale deployment of IoT based services is not conceivable without addressing interoperability and services coordination related challenges. In this regard, a comprehensive set of tools and techniques associated with IoT heterogeneity and interoperability have been explored. This article proposes a middleware framework to consider IoT heterogeneity and interoperability issues in different service interactions. Later, the article investigates experimentally, the trust measurements among IOTs, their decay, and the effectiveness of dynamic selection of trust parameters along with their thresholds. Appropriateness of time intervals have also been tested in various types of service interactions. To demonstrate middleware applicability, the trust-based algorithm has been applied in a service-oriented environment along with different types of services.

The quality of VLE is indispensable for the accomplishment of e-learning goals and responsible to engage students during learning. But the VLEs are not revamped according to the modern technologies, thus the attributes of existing VLEs do not completely meet the requirements of today's e-learning. The students' interest, participation and engagement with web-based e-learning platforms are diminishing. In contrast, the learners' engagement and participation are high-spirited in many modern technologies, including social networking sites (SNS) and web 2.0 technologies. Many studies highlighted various inadequacies in existing VLEs and also emphasis to use the feature of modern learning technologies in an existing e-learning environment. Design and development of new VLEs with all features of modern learning technologies could be one of the options. Another smart solution could be the incorporation of SNS, online tools and modern learning technologies with existing VLEs. The open APIs for various technologies are not available so that the smooth integration of external technologies with VLE is one of the challenging issues. The goal of this research paper is to investigate existing e-learning environment , find their inadequacies and try to resolve them by incorporating available external technologies. The paper proposed an integrated model to enhance existing e-learning environment by incorporating potential modern learning support technologies with VLEs. This paper will provide a good direction and new thoughts for the researchers of technology-supported learning-domain.

Estos sitios sociales, además, brindan una plataforma mundial a estudiantes y educadores para satisfacer sus necesidades de aprendizaje o instrucción. La incorporación de sitios de redes sociales (SNS) y herramientas en línea con e-learning, obteniendo una gran fama, extraordinariamente instructivo en el espacio. Los alumnos se sienten más cómodos con estos SNS, se sienten complacidos de unirse, participar y colaborar con compañeros o profesores en estos sitios. La integración inteligente de los sitios sociales y las herramientas en línea con la plataforma de e-learning convencional podría revolucionar el modelo actual de e-learning. Varias cuestiones de aprendizaje electrónico, incluida la participación, la asociación, la motivación y el compromiso de los alumnos pueden mitigarse con esta integración. El número de SNS y las herramientas en línea tienen grandes componentes para el aprendizaje, la enseñanza o la capacitación, sin embargo, su uso equilibrado e incorporación con el modelo de aprendizaje electrónico es aún un desafío de exploración. En este artículo, presentamos un modelo que utiliza sitios y herramientas de redes sociales de manera efectiva con la plataforma de aprendizaje electrónico. La idea básica de este modelo es hacer que el e-learning sea simple y más atractivo al usar sitios sociales y herramientas en línea, fáciles de comprender y, en general, gratuitos. Este documento también resalta algunos problemas y desafíos de investigación abiertos que podrían enfrentar el modelo de e-learning basado en SNS. La idea, el conocimiento y los temas de investigación abierta de los que se explicita en este artículo pueden crear otro rumbo de investigación en el espacio de aprendizaje orientado por la innovación. PALABRAS CLAVE. Sitios de redes sociales, herramientas de aprendizaje, tecnologías educativas, aprendizaje inteligente, soluciones de aprendizaje electrónico.

The quality of VLE is indispensable for the accomplishment of e-learning goals and responsible to engage students during learning. But the VLEs are not revamped according to the modern technologies, thus the attributes of existing VLEs do not completely meet the requirements of today's e-learning. The students' interest, participation and engagement with web-based e-learning platforms are diminishing. In contrast, the learners' engagement and participation are high-spirited in many modern technologies, including social networking sites (SNS) and web 2.0 technologies. Many studies highlighted various inadequacies in existing VLEs and also emphasis to use the feature of modern learning technologies in an existing e-learning environment. Design and development of new VLEs with all features of modern learning technologies could be one of the options. Another smart solution could be the incorporation of SNS, online tools and modern learning technologies with existing VLEs. The open APIs for various technologies are not available so that the smooth integration of external technologies with VLE is one of the challenging issues. The goal of this research paper is to investigate existing e-learning environment , find their inadequacies and try to resolve them by incorporating available external technologies. The paper proposed an integrated model to enhance existing e-learning environment by incorporating potential modern learning support technologies with VLEs. This paper will provide a good direction and new thoughts for the researchers of technology-supported learning-domain.
