The Internet of Things (IoT) is playing a great role in the technology scenario due to its high potential and impact on different society segments. Currently, several IoT initiatives have simultaneously developed new architectures, platforms and applications which has resulted in the creation of parallel IoT ecosystems. This makes access to IoT devices, and their integration in potential applications, difficult. This mini-course presents the SOFT-IoT platform, which introduces the Fog of Things (FoT) concept in order to exploit the processing, storage and network capacity of local resources, allowing for the integration of different devices in a seamless IoT architecture. The main purpose of the minicourse is to offer undergraduate students, graduate students and researchers access to and training for the implementation of the SOFT-IoT platform in research and development projects.
