Deepak Kedia, Gurjit Kaur · Advances in wireless technologies and telecommunication book series · 2017
The integration of Cloud computing and IoT provides the capability of omnipresent sensing services and powerful, efficient storage as well as processing of sensor data beyond the capability of distinct things or devices. The ability of Cloud platform in providing automatic and reliable decision making will boost the development of newer and innovative applications, like smart healthcare, cities, buildings, agriculture practices and buildings, etc. This chapter surveys a few key application areas where Cloud-based IoT technology can mark its impact. The Cloud-based architecture has been proposed for these applications, simultaneously examining and identifying the challenges involved. The salient points identified in this chapter will help researchers and scientists to explore newer applications based on the Cloud-IoT platform.
