%X With ever-increasing applications of IoT, and due to
the heterogeneous and bursty nature of these applications, scalability has
become an important research issue in building cloud-based IoT/M2M systems.
This research proposes a dynamic SDN-based network slicing mechanism to tackle
the scalability problems caused by such heterogeneity and fluctuation of IoT
application requirements. The proposed method can automatically create a
network slice on-the-fly for each new type of IoT application and adjust the
QoS characteristics of the slice dynamically according to the changing
requirements </span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">of an IoT application.
Validated with extensive experiments, the proposed me</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">chanism
demonstrates better platform scalability when compared to a static slicing
system.
