2. INTRODUCTION
The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical objects or
things embedded with electronics, software, sensors and
connectivity to enable it to achieve greater value and service by
exchanging data with the manufacturer, operator and/or other
connected devices. Each thing is uniquely identifiable through its
embedded computing system but is able to interoperate within the
existing internet infrastructure.
3. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a scenario in which objects,
animals or people are provided with unique identifiers and the
ability to transfer data over a network without requiring
human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction. IoT has
evolved from the convergence of wireless technologies, micro-
electromechanical systems and the Internet.
A thing, in the Internet of Things, can be a person with a heart
monitor implant, a farm animal with a biochip transponder, an
automobile that has built-in sensors to alert the driver when
tire pressure is low or any other natural or man-made object
that can be assigned an IP address and provided with the ability
to transfer data over a network. So far, the Internet of Things
has been most closely associated with machine-to-machine
(M2M) communication in manufacturing and power, oil and gas
utilities. Products built with M2M communication capabilities
4. TRENDS
Architecture : Building on top of the Internet of Things, the Web of
Things is an architecture for the application layer of the Internet of
Things looking at the convergence of data from IoT devices into Web
applications to create innovative use-cases. Some researchers argue that
sensor networks are the most essential components of the Internet of
Things.
Intelligence : There is a shift in research to integrate the concepts of the
Internet of Things and autonomous control, with initial outcomes
towards this direction considering objects as the driving force for
autonomous IoT. Autonomous behavior through collecting and reasoning
context information plays a significant role in IoT.
Size Considerations : The Internet of objects would encode 50 to 100
trillion objects, and be able to follow the movement of those objects.
5. Space Considerations : In an Internet of Things, the precise geographic
location of a thing and also the precise geographic dimensions of a thing
will be critical. Open Geospatial Consortium, "OGC Abstract
Specification" Currently, the Internet has been primarily used to manage
information processed by people. Therefore, facts about a thing, such as
its location in time and space, have been less critical to track because the
person processing the information can decide whether or not that
information was important to the action being taken, and if so, add the
missing information.
A Basket of Remotes : The most likely problem will be the "Basket of
remotes" problem, where we'll have hundreds of applications to interface
with hundreds of devices that don't share protocols for speaking with one
another.
I expect that in the field of Intelligence and Architecture, IoT would make a
big impact in the future coming years. As we are making this world modern
6. INTEREST AREAS
I would like to work on Unique Addressability of Things,
Environmental Monitoring, Intelligence and Medical and
Healthcare Systems. As these applications were important and
IoT would have a big impact over them.
According to me, research is the way of enhancing your
practical knowledge and converting your theoretical knowledge
to practical one. I want to develop applications which makes
more easier for users and can interface with less errors.
I would like to learn basics in any one of the specified area and
take an opportunity to work on some project with practical
knowledge.
