- As a developer, I want to containerize the framework using Docker so that it can be deployed consistently across environments. - As a user, I want to deploy the framework on cloud services (e.g., AWS, GCP) to test real-world scalability. - As a system administrator, I want to configure the number of fog nodes and cloud resources dynamically to handle varying workloads. - As a user, I want to ensure the system supports both simulated and real IoT devices for flexible testing.
