Smart Cloud Conflict

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.

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.

In this ted talk by Parag Khanna, How Megacities are changing the map of the world. The main theme of the talk is about how global networking civilizations in which the cities are now been compete more than the borders. This means that we are now moving into the a world where technologies has taken place in most of our cities, for example the way the infrastructural development and hyper-connected cities are rising to the top more than the state(page 12.10) due to the rapid growing of the people moving to the cities.

The IoT links household objects such as refrigerators and other appliances to global networks. The home itself could be linked to supermarkets. Supermarkets are public spaces and collection of data does not violate Fourth Amendment Rights to privacy. However, the supermarket is a window into one’s personal life. This merging of public and private spheres enables sharing of personal information. Supermarkets become surveillance sites for consumers (Winter 37). Sensors are embedded in pavements to monitor traffic. The Arizona Department of Transportation, or ADOT, placed loop detectors along freeways which monitor speed, number of vehicles and other parameters (azdot.gov). Humans are sources of personal information and the supermarket is a hub for their

This documentary is abut the concept of “Smart City” a current issue but however unknown to many people.

Bigger than the Industrial Revolution, This is how some analysts talk about the budding "Internet of Things" and the innovation that will come as a result. We will start to see a plethora of "dumb" objects become connected; sending signals to each other and alerts to our phones, and creating mounds of "little data" on all of us that will make marketers salivate.

The world as we know it is experiencing an unprecedented shift for the first time witnessed in human history. It wasn’t even 100 years ago that the world was still overwhelmingly rural with global urban population rates around 10%. Fast forward to 2015, now accounting for roughly around 53% of the worlds population living in cities and is projected to rise to around 67% by 2050.1 The comparative analysis sets out to understand the opportunities and challenges among the North American megacity New York and the Asian megacity of Beijing. The metropolitan area of both New York and Beijing consist of a population each over 10 million people, which generally defines as a megacity. A “megacity” can also be coined as world city, global city, megalopolis, metropolis, conurbation, and agglomeration. Megacities such as New York and Beijing are comprised of a central core, surrounded by satellite cities within daily commuting distances, separated by greenspace. Thus, urban agglomerations can be numerous cities and towns when they are linked by the flows of people, goods, and information, as long as the aggregate population exceeds 10 million.2

Meanwhile, data sharing is a large part of Boston’s efforts to improve the quality of life for their residents. And the City of Boston eagers to improve BAR from a data collection effort to a citywide performance management system accessible in real-time from any device. Big data provides an unprecedented opportunity to deliver improved services. It is a good chance to analyze large data sets, find the value of data and tell the story of the City of Boston in new way.

Snell & Lee (2015) states that the IoT fuses “a worldwide network involving interconnected and

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

The Internet of Things (IoT) is changing how most industries do business and promises a significant return on investment (ROI) in operational efficiency, improved customer experience, risk mitigation, and enabling entirely new business models. The sheer volume of new devices on the network driven by IoT will evolve the scale and range of deploying devices and managing data. Further, recent advances for employing Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) within IoT are creating many new opportunities to enhance data analysis and better decision-making. Although the notion of computing based on sensor data from things was not born yesterday, the meteoric rise of IoT has recently become practical because of smaller, faster,

The use of IoT has already impacted the way cities operate. The term smart cities, is used to describe a city that possesses an IoT oriented infrastructure. “In a smart city, the digital technologies translate into better public services for inhabitants and better use of resources while reducing environmental impacts”. [3] For a smart city to be feasible, IoT must provide intelligence, interconnection, and instrumentation. Wi-Fi-enabled smart devices and low-cost sensors are components of the smart city and allow devices a way to communicate with the public via the internet. These devices collect real-time data, which not only improves the lives of residents, but transforms several sectors of public service as well. Transportation has been revolutionized by smart traffic management systems which gather data from an array of magnetic road sensors and hundreds of cameras. The result is less delay at major stop lights and increased travel speeds, because enabled drivers can see which lights are busy and monitor these areas for other vehicles and pedestrians. To lower traffic and driver search times for parking spots, parking sensors that detect parking-spaces for drivers are installed in major cities. Street lights use a method of energy saving known as adaptive lighting which enables them to determine their brightness setting, appropriate for a given situation. The smart city solution to conserving energy is through smart girds. A smart grid serves several energy management

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.

With the click of a button or a tap on a screen, you can discover profound knowledge, it navigates you to where you need to go, or it even tells you miscellaneous things such as which place to go to get the best pumpkin spice latte. The Internet of things has significantly impacted everyday lives and continues to develop throughout generations. It refers to pertinent things such as the ever-growing networks of everyday physical objects, and other internet-enabled systems and devices which process and analyze large and fast-moving data set along each other. To sum it up, the internet of things is a fast growing network of materials where everything is synced and can collect as well as exchange data using sensors that are embedded in devices. Although individuals believe that the Internet of Things (IoT) consequently, will strip every one of privacy and security, the internet of things ought to be utilized in society as it positively transforms the way you live and relate to our environment to make it more productive and useful for us.
