CLOUD BASED IOT ARCHITECTURE by Nathan Roehl A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Computer Science at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee December 2019 ABSTRACT CLOUD BASED IOT ARCHITECTURE by Nathan Roehl The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2019 Under the Supervision of Professor Tian Zhao The Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud computing have grown in popularity over the past decade as the internet becomes faster and more ubiquitous. Cloud platforms are well suited to handle IoT systems as they are accessible and resilient, and they provide a scalable solution to store and analyze large amounts of IoT data. IoT applications are complex software systems and software developers need to have a thorough understanding of the capabilities, limitations, architecture, and design patterns of cloud platforms and cloud- based IoT tools to build an efficient, maintainable, and customizable IoT application. As the IoT landscape is constantly changing, research into cloud-based IoT platforms is either lacking or out of date.

The following comments and responses address the verbal comments made by the NRC staff during previous telephone conversations. As requested by NRC staff, Cimarron Corporation has also reviewed the current license conditions and is proposing the following additional modifications and clarifications. Comment: NRC staff commented that Annex A contains specific references to a quality assurance program, but that no reference appeared to be present in Annex A to an overall quality assurance program which would apply to the entire Annex A (Radiation Protection Plan). Response: ( 'Annex A (Radiation Protection Plan) was developed to conform with the requirements contained in the Cimarron Quality Assurance Program. The Cimarron Quality Assurance Program was designed to assure compliance with the applicable requirements of ASME NQA-1, "Quality Assurance Program Requirements for Nuclear Facilities." Cimarron Corporation proposes to revise Section 3.3 of Annex A to include the Cimarron Quality Assurance Program (see Attachment #1).
