Internet of Tings (IoT)
ABSTRACT
The US National Intelligence Council included Internet of things technology to the list of the most six important technologies that will have a potential impact on US national power “Disruptive Civil Technologies”.
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.
Those issues will be Addressing and network issues, security and privacy. 1. Introduction
The reason why internet of things has become important and interesting topic for a lot of tech global companies such

2. Open issues
Although the internet of things has become an existed technology and visible, but a lot of searches are still required for improving all the weaknesses and answering all the users’ questions.
2.1. Addressing and network issues In IoT the number of nodes will be incredibly high. That means the needs of effective addressing polices are required. As we know, each node are identified through four bytes address using IPV4, also the number of the available addresses is rapidly decreasing and will reach zero so soon. Therefore, other utilization protocols are required instead of IPv4.
In some previous researches, IPv6 is proposed to be the alternative; by means of 128 bits, IPv6 can define 10^38 address which is should be enough for addressing the worthy and useful objects. Hence, create a new IPv6 packet with a suitable encapsulation is required.

Encapsulation of RFID message into an IPv6 packet Even though, IPvs solved a part of problem that was the number of the available addresses, however, another problem is existed, the suitable way in which address are should be obtained. In the now days Internet, querying appropriate servers that is called domain name servers (DNS) for identifying any host address from a certain giving name.
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.
While IoT devices holds much promise, there are still many security issues that need to be addressed. These security issues can have a significant impact on everyday life, such as causing damage, disruption to business operations, and in some cases even loss of life. Having all your devices interconnected using IoT such as lighting, thermostats, doors, and elevators, seems convenient but in fact this poses a great security risk. If these risks are exploited it could disrupt power or lighting which could lead to a loss of life if it were something like a hospital. Addressing these security risks will lead to more efficient and safer to use IoT devices but companies will have to identify them in their devices first (Tankard, 2015).

The world of technology is dynamic. Technology has been revolutionized to its current status of industry four. This has seen various changes in the information technology, in the previous time the Internet Protocol 4 (IPV 4) was used to identify the IP address. Times have changes leading to the development of IPV 6 which can handle multiple addresses at a time. The IPV 6 handles 3.4 x 1038 addresses at a single time. This recommendable since the world has evolved to use of digital systems that require IP addresses every time. This paper explains the effects of technology developments, benefits and the flaws involved. The development of technology has been used in various industrial fields that include, industrial production, aquatic study, and research, smart lighting among others.
Over the past few weeks, we have been asked if an adult can write a realistic depiction of a teenage life. I personally think they can,although the many struggles they face, and the non-stop changing of teenagers Don Aker has proved to me that adults can write a realistic depiction of a teenage life.
My encounter with Mrs. Gonzalez occurred on a typical afternoon during work. After five hours under her 1997 Plymouth, my hands were so dirty I had to wash them ten times just to see my fingernails. She was a familiar face around the shop given that the vandals down the street found her car to be an easy target for harmless fun, she used to think, but this time, they had gone too far. They had stolen her catalytic converter (a very valuable item if you’re not familiar with scrap yard economics 101) and she couldn’t afford a replacement. “That’ll be $425.” She looked like she was about to faint.
we need to have a IP address for the purpose of connectivity and that IP address should be unique to due increase in the usage the exhaustion of IP address in IPv4 has occurred. IPv4 can be utilized for the interface of many advanced gadgets on the internet it can be utilized to unite the combine the computer based gagjets with the system.In the year February 2011 each organization is responsible for assigning their own IP addreses and
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 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.
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a term used to describe the growing number of smart and connected products. It consists of physical things such as sensors which have the ability to collect and share data. Predictions suggest that over 30 billion smart and connected devices will be in use in the year 2020.
The power of Internet grows drastically when people, data and things are interconnected through the Internet. Internet of Things aka IoT, is a network of things or objects implanted with sensors and other smart electronic devices which enables them to communicate with each other and other targets in the network through exchange of data.
Burrus explain vehemently The Internet of Things is more than an article of convenience, rather a wide-ranging system that can contribute to the overall Safety and Security of a society Through the utilisation of smart materials being linked with the tools that average people use in their day-to-day lives. One such example, Burrus uses is the development it would contribute to the overall safety of constructing a large highway bridge. Burrus, sites to separate scenarios where this newly-developed cement could provide an incomparable contribution to public safety as a whole.
Looking at today’s technology, you can probably get a clear incite of the future for the internet. Quit a lot of thing could be addressable, and may be available to connect to IP network bases. From the research, which I have done, and the data, which I had collected, there are two major challenges, which have to overcome. Firstly, the fact is that, there are 14 networks’ that coexists, and the other challenge is that, the size of the internet of things relates to the first challenge. The industry of IT are have some problem, from their experience in developing systems, they can find a way, in which to connect millions of objects, are able to connect to an IP network.
According to Forrester in [2] “IoT uses information and communications technologies to make the critical infrastructure components and services of a city administration, education, healthcare, public safety, real estate, transportation and utilities more aware, interactive and efficient”. It has the capability to bring down the cost of all the major sectors like Healthcare, Transportation, Energy, Education and Real State.
IoT is quickly becoming the new reality all around the world. The creation of IoT devices are expected to triple in the next few years (Rossolillo 2016). The IoT appliances include everything from autonomous cars to smart tattoos. As the gadgets change the technology and platforms used disseminate the information will also change and become more refined through Narrowband IoT. The future of the internet of things is expected to bring significant improvement to individual lives, corporations, and the global gross domestic product (GDP).
