Strengths and limitations of related work.

Presented workStrengthsLimitations

HealthFog [5]Enhancement in Quality of service and prediction accuracy(i) It could only work on single domain of diseases.
(ii) Proposed architecture is designed for one application area only
STPH [6]Efficient medical services(i) Higher computational complexity
(ii) Lack of medical offering system
HAAL-NBFA [7](i) Implementation of safe-fail moduleProposed framework can monitor limited set of diseases
(ii) Minimum feature selection
Fog-BBN [15]Provides assistance for remote patient health monitoring(i) Event severity level checking is missing
(ii) Requirement of real time alert generation
Fog-Smart Office [16]Severity Index calculation which reflects the impact of various activities in smart office environment(i) Transmission of varied types of events in a common and adaptable format
(ii) Lesser network load efficiency
Fog-CPE [20]Minimization of time delayBi-directional coordination is missing
Tri-Fog [21] Health(i) Elimination of faulty data(i) Proposed system does not work on specific set of diseases
(ii) Security aspects are not covered
(ii) Removal of redundant data
(iii) Data processing using various attributes
