Is a concept and a paradigm that considers pervasive precense in the environment of a variety of things/objects that are able to interact with each other to create new application/services and reach common goals
Is a new revolution of the internet
Objects
Characteristics
Make themselves recognizable and they obtain intelligence by making or enabling context related decisions
Goal
TO enable things to be connected anytime, anyplace, with anything and anyone ideally
Interconnectivity
Things-related services
Dynamic Changes
Enormous scale
Safety
Connectivity
Anything can be interconnected with the global information and communication infrastructure
the devices in the IoT are heterogeneous as based on different hardware platforms and networks
The state of devices dynamicallty.
The number of devices that need to be managed and that communicate with each other will be at least an order of magnitude larger than the devices connected to the current Internet
Safety of our personal data and our physical well-being
Connectivity enables network accessibility and compatibility
Securing the endpoints, the networks, and the data moving across all of its means creating a security paradigm that will scale
IoT Architecture
Consists of different layers of technologies supporting IoT
Smart devices
Gateways & Networks
Management Service Layer
Application Layer
Massive volume of data will be produced by these tiny sensors a& this requires a robust and high performance wired or wireless network inftrastructure as a medium
The sensors enable the interconnection of the physical and digital worlds allowing real-time information to becollected and processed
The management service renders the processing of information possible through analytics, security controls, process modeling and management of devices
IoT application covers "smart" environments/spaces in domains such as:
Transportation
Building
Agriculture
Lifestyle
Retail
Healthcare
Supply Chain
Emergency
User interaction
Cuture
Tourism
Environment & Energy
Accessibility is getting on a network while compability provides the common ability to consume and produce data.
