I. INTRODUCTION
The IoT (Internet of Things) is becoming vital in industrial technology and engineering areas. This is embodied in a wide spectrum of networked products, systems, and sensors which take advantage of advancements in computing power, electronics miniaturization and network interconnections to offer new capabilities not previously possible. The various
This paper gives a clear understanding on the current state of art on the IoT. The primary idea of the IoT concept is the pervasive existence around us of a wide range of things such as Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) tags, actuators, sensors, mobile phones, etc. These are able to communicate with each other and collaborate with their neighbors to reach collective goals through distinctive addressing scheme.
Internet of Things is the connectivity concept which makes all the devices, connected to the main monitoring device via Wired or Wireless. The communication that is been used by IoT is possessing an RFID. Every device in this IoT network seems to physically individual, but they are all connected with a same unison. There are more than 12 billions connected and according to stats, in coming years it would increase to more than 26 times of present. IoT is the most fashionable way of connecting devices and communicating them in an intelligent way. As all the devices are connected, it is now driving the world towards a single and large information system.
The world is getting smarter and better and so are the devices. With the improved technology, we can check our mails on our watch; control our home temperature through our smartphone and much more. The term Internet of Things is referred to any object or device which connects to the Internet to automatically send and/or receive data [1].
IoT is an existed technology physically. However, many challenges still face this technology to be separated widely. In this report, Internet of Things technology will be discussed, and on the most important open issues that have not been solved, or at least perfectly, will be focused on.
In the vision of the Internet of Things (IoT), an expanding number of installed gadgets of various kinds (e.g., sensors, cellular telephones, cameras, smart meters, brilliant autos, traffic lights, savvy home appliances, and so forth.) are currently fit for imparting and sharing information over the Internet. Despite the fact that the idea of utilizing inserted frameworks to control gadgets, instruments and apparatuses has been proposed for practically decades now, with each new era, the continually expanding abilities of calculation and correspondence posture new open doors, additionally new difficulties. As IoT turns into a dynamic examination zone, distinctive strategies from different perspectives have been investigated to advance the improvement and notoriety of IoT. One pattern is seeing IoT as Web of Things (WoT) where the open Web norms are bolstered for data sharing and gadget interoperation. By penetrating savvy things into existing Web, the customary web administrations are advanced with physical world administrations. This WoT vision empowers another method for narrowing the boundary in the middle of virtual and physical universes. In this paper, we expound the structural engineering and some key empowering advances of WoT. Some pioneer open stages and models are
Many of us take advantage of the internet in our daily lives now, in fact now there are more devices connected to the internet than the entire human population of our planet. Cisco believes that by 2020 the total things connected to the internet will surpass 50 billion. That doesn’t even include all the devices and things not connected; such as a cell phone without battery. A new form of internet systems is beginning to emerge, and in the coming years it will see huge breakthroughs throughout the 21st century. The internet of things will change many aspects of people’s lives.
IoT offers a platform for sensors and devices to communicate seamlessly within a smart environment and enables information sharing across platforms in a convenient manner. The recent adaptation of different wireless technologies places IoT as the next revolutionary technology by benefiting from the full opportunities offered by the Internet technology. IoT has witnessed its recent adoption in smart cities with interest in developing intelligent systems, such as smart office, smart retail, smart agriculture, smart water, smart transportation, smart healthcare, and smart energy. IoT has emerged as a new trend in the last few years, where mobile devices, transportation facilities, public facilities, and home appliances can all be used as data acquisition equipment in IoT. All surrounding electronic equipment to facilitate daily life operations, such as wristwatches, vending machines, emergency alarms, and garage doors, as well as home appliances, such as refrigerators, microwave ovens, air conditioners, and water heaters are connected to an IoT
Internet of Things (Iot) in recent years, with human technology’s extremely fast improvement, has become something more than it was meant to be. Henry Holtzman explained that IoT was defined as objects that contain some sort of digital shadows (RFID) while us human having a database to manipulate, share and organise these objects in a virtual environment. This very definition was put forward in 1990s, where in present, IoT has evolved into objects that has embedded processers, computing capabilities and the ability to perform communications with other objects. Right now we have objects that could do things much more than the impression we get from its look, the
“In a few decades’ time, computers will be interwoven into almost every industrial product”, said computer scientist pioneer Karl Steinbuch in 1966. Steinbuch’s prediction couldn’t be closer to the truth. Today we see the “Internet of Things” (IoT), which is the concept that modern devices are provided with “unique identifiers and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring any human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction” (Rouse, 2014). Wireless technologies, the internet, and various other types of computer networks have converged to form the IoTs as we know it. The Internet of Things is a complex technical and policy-related subject, and impacts everything from politics and the environment, to society and the economy.
There is a revolution underway that has the potential to be staggeringly transformational and, at the same time, highly disruptive; it is currently called the Internet of Things (IoT) trend. IoT (also referred to as “Internet of Everything”) devices have embedded network, computing and other information processing capabilities, which allow these devices to be interconnected. The number and types of devices that are being manufactured with these built-in IoT features are increasing rapidly. It is imperative to take notice of the IoT trend because it has a strong potential to redefine the Security risk equation within many enterprises.
The sudden growth in IT investment is linked with the growth of IOT and therefore naturally an era of increased investment comes with increased business opportunities. The following section describes some of the applications of the internet of things and the opportunities in which they will bring.
The Internet of Things is a complex, innovative system rooted in the idea of connectivity. Individual artifacts that transmit data and information amongst each other ensure a smooth and coherent experience based off their ability to communicate through internet connection, sharing the same network to create incomparable efficiency and convenience. The Internet of Things is constantly developing to work in new areas and scenarios, further securing its essentiality in the domain of the technological future
The Internet of Things is a vision of a global network that connects various physical world objects to the IT infrastructure. This vision has been inspired by the success made in emerging technologies such as Radio-Frequency IDentification (RFID), wireless sensor networks, and mobile communication. The realisation of such a global object network will allow seamless interaction and cooperation between the real and logical world.
Internet of Things (IoT) enables a set of devices to share and communicate information over the internet. IoT requires security solutions to secure the communication with confidentiality, integrity and authentication services so as to protect the data from intrusions and disruptions. Smart homes are homes with technologically advanced systems enabling task automation, easier communication and higher security. In order to secure data communication in smart homes, MQTT protocol can be used.
The concept of the internet of things abbreviated as IoT was introduced as early as the late 90’s by Kevin Ashton, the Executive Director of Auto-ID Labs and a professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Now, “the Internet of things is already a disruptive technology capable of determining fundamental changes that are happening in everyday life, and it is considered the fourth industrial revolution.” (Hucanu) The Internet of Things (IoT)
