The main tasks of this framework are to analyze and determine the smart activities of these intelligent devices through maintaining a dynamic interconnection among those devices. The proposed framework will help to standardize IoT infrastructure so that it can receive e-services based on context information leaving the current infrastructure unchanged. The active collaboration of these heterogeneous devices and protocols can lead to future ambient computing where the maximum utilization of cloud computing will be ensured.

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.

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.

The IoT is shaping, progressively, the behaviors and the dynamics in and between companies, bringing with it a new set of challenges and plenty of inconvenience - especially when one considers

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

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.

With the continued rise of the Internet of Things (IoT), so does the continued rise of urgency on part of most product manufacturers and service providers to produce a device that can not only communicate information regarding its current condition, but also communicate the condition of what is around the device. The fast pace of IoT development has produced a perplexing variety of device configurations, each with their own attributes, data structures, and particularities. In addition, companies are deploying variations of devices, each designed to meet specific purposes. As a result, the ability to manage IoT devices is rapidly diminishing.

As the advancement of science and technology takes place transformation in the healthcare sector is also witnessed. Internet of Things (IoT) plays the role of a game changer and brings revolution in the healthcare sector. It comprises of a set of technologies which make it possible to interact and communicate with an extensive range of appliances, devices, and objects through networking technologies. It is devoted to the assessment of healthcare, which comprises patient monitoring, detection of a situation where medical interventions are required .Healthcare sector goes through reformation in terms of technological, economic and social aspects with the introduction of IoT. It has a great impact on analytical purposes, understanding of diseases and their treatment and public health management. IoT in healthcare is an intelligent and innovative way with the motto of “Live longer and prosper”. Still, there is a lot of challenges to be rectified for the better implementation of techniques in terms of consumer adaptation and welfare .One of the major issue to be addressed is interoperability and security. This could be possible with the collaboration of individuals, industry, and government.

IoT is changing how telecoms compete and grow. The biggest threat to today’s telecom service providers is public cloud. Firms like Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Public Cloud have become the supply chain for content and data delivery through the last mile and to the edge, especially to the consumer.

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

Many of the IoT applications will include monitoring devices reporting on different aspects of the system being monitored. For instance, many buildings and offices include occupancy, and temperature sensors. Vehicles could be equipped with monitoring devices reporting on locations, fuel consumption, etc. However, current IoT applications are domain specific, with no wider vision for reusing the data generated by devices in other applications or sharing them with other users in other domains. The Internet of Things is lacking a well-defined architecture that could help create a competitive marketplace of applications and solutions without locking any users into using a monolithic stack from a single solution provider.

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)
