Internet of Things (IoT) is an emergent technology that provides a promising opportunity to improve industrial systems by the smartly use of physical objects, systems, platforms and applications that contain embedded technology to communicate and share intelligence with each other.In recent years, a great range of industrial IoT applications have been developed and deployed.Among these applications, the Water and Oil & Gas Distribution System is tremendously important considering the huge amount of fluid loss caused by leakages and other possible hydraulic failures.Accordingly, to design an accurate Fluid Distribution Monitoring System (FDMS) represents a critical task that imposes a serious study and an adequate planning.This paper reviews the current state-of-the-art of IoT, major IoT applications in industries and focus more on the Industrial IoT FDMS (IIoT FDMS).
