	abstract = {<p class="rtejustify">Nowadays, the research and industrial communities are focusing their efforts on the adoption of Cloud computing for a massive interaction with the physical environment. At the same time the concept of Internet of Things (IoT), in which several embedded systems are interconnected over the Internet, is becoming more and more popular. In this context, the SIGMA project aims to exploit Cloud technologies to collect, integrate, and process heterogeneous pieces of data coming from different wireless sensor networks (e.g., meteorological, seismic, and water observatories) with the purpose to build a distributed risk management system for controlling and monitoring both environmental and industrial risks for people and things. In this paper, we specifically discuss on how SIGMA enables users to manage risks related to water. In particular, we will discuss how the whole SIGMA stack works describing the whole process from the moment in which water sensed data (e.g., turbidity, speed, methane, dissolved oxygen, water level, etc) are collected from heterogeneous sensor networks to the moment in which the Cloud-based system uniforms and stores them for processing.</p>

	abstract = {<p class="rtejustify">Cloud computing is an emerging technology able to offer a plethora of new advanced services. Cloud operators can use and combine such services in order to build new Mash-up Cloud platform and applications. However, security issues have strongly limited the large-scale adoption of Cloud computing, especially in business environments and similar application scenarios, where sensitive date need to be protected. At the same time the Trusted Computing technology is bringing a new way of thinking about security of systems. This paper deals with the importance to leverage the Trusted Computing for encouraging the development of secure distributed Mash-up Cloud services. We show how the Remote and Deep Attestation protocols make secure both the physical hosts and the virtual machines in a Cloud infrastructure, providing a solid framework for the deployment of federated environments.</p>
