Internet of Things

What is the Internet of Things? Essentially the IoT is “the connection of any device with an on and off switch to the Internet and/or to each other.” [1] This can include many devices such as refrigerators, printers and much more. The IoT is not limited to the devices but possibly the devices components as well such as the engine of a semi-Truck. “The analyst firm Gartner says that by 2020 there will be over 26 billion connected devices.”[1]. Based on statistics from Gartner and other firms it is

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the group of objects or things embedded with electronics, software, sensors and network connectivity, which allows these objects to gather and exchange information. It allows objects to be detected and controlled remotely across existing network infrastructure, making opportunities for a lot of direct integration between the physical world and computer based systems, and leading to improved efficiency, accuracy and economic profit. Every factor is uniquely recognizable

Abstract: The Internet of Things (IoT) shall be able to incorporate transparently and seamlessly a large number of different and heterogeneous end systems, while providing open access to selected subsets of data for the development of a plethora of digital services. Building a general architecture for the IoT is hence a very complex task, mainly because of the extremely large variety of devices, link layer technologies, and services that may be involved in such a system. As a result, huge volumes

The Internet of Things (IoT) means that everything and everyone is connected billions of people connected to billions of devices creating a constant flow of real world data, in real time, at massive volumes. IoT provides secure, bi-directional communication between Internet-connected things (such as sensors, actuators, embedded devices, or smart appliances) and the cloud. We discover our custom IoT-Data endpoint to communicate with, configure rules for data processing and integration with other services

What is Internet of Things? The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of the physical objects containing embedded systems which connects and communicate with each other internally or externally through sensors. According to David Ahrens, it is the “network of interconnected sensor-equipped electronic devices that collect data, communicate with each other, and can be monitored or controlled remotely over the Internet” (Ahrens, 2014). The main goal of its development is to connect the physical world

research paper is information systems security. More specifically, we examined the security of the Internet of Things. The Internet of Things is an ever-growing avenue of technology that is constantly improving in connectivity and user-friendly interactions. IoT is defined by Forbes writer Jacob Morgan (2014) as “the concept of basically connecting any device with an on and off switch to the Internet (and/or to each other). This [including] … cell phones, coffee makers, washing machines, headphones

The Internet of Things for Healthcare Background: Around 150 years ago, it was invented that electricity can be transferred from one place to another thus making the connectivity between two devices. Based on the concept, scientists were thinking, the concept might be useful for connecting two devices, communicating each other. The result was the remarkable invention of Telegraph by Samuel Moore and later Telephone by renowned and famous scientist Alexander Graham Bell. Since then communication starts

Executive Summary Technology is quickly changing the way we interact with the world around us. The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the ability of physical objects to connect to the Internet and to send and receive data.Introduction The Internet of Things (IoT). The IoT concept is difficult to define precisely. IoT can be define as the network of physical objects are embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity that enables these items to gather and exchange data. Another

The Internet of Things, or the IoT is envisioned as a ubiquitous society wherein people and devices (referred to as "Things") are connected in a riveting networked computing environment viz. Internet , with the connected “Things” providing utility to people/enterprises through various intelligent commercial and social services. Large chunks of data is generated for devices to communicate with each other to facilitate the Internet Of Things. Data transfer over the Internet is usually a power hungry

insured. Health insurance companies are monitoring crucial parameters like blood glucose, blood pressure levels, activity patterns, eating and exercise habits of customers via wearable tech devices that feed insurer’s database when connected to Internet. Health insurance premium pricing is dynamic, subject to current health situation of the customer, which can bring down costs for both the insurer and the customer. Such close monitoring helps insurers identify risky patients with chronic conditions
