Noman Shahid, Sandhya Aneja · 2017 International Conference on I-SMAC (IoT in Social, Mobile, Analytics and Cloud) (I-SMAC) · 2017
Internet of Things (IoT) is the convergence of the Internet with smart objects or “things belonging to Internet” to exchange the real-world information. Now the Internet is moving out from Internet of people to the Internet of everything. Billions of devices expected to connect to the Internet in future that will require a well manageable mechanism where the objects can sense and behave accordingly by themselves. This paper presents how the data/information from smart objects gives rise to the actual discoveries in IoT world. IoT vision is presented with a simple architecture of IoT. Diiferent IoT application domains with their use cases are discussed. Finally, a taxonomy of IoT research areas is presented with different research challenges.
