21. The Internet of Things
“Internet of Objects” “Machine-to-Machine Era”
(2) Internet of Things refers to the concept that the
Internet is no longer just a global network for people to
communicate with one another using computers, but it is
also a platform for devices to communicate electronically
with the world around them.”
--Center for Data and Innovation
(1) The Internet of Things, also called The Internet of
Objects, refers to a wireless network between objects,
usually the network will be wireless and self-configuring,
such as household appliances.
------Wikipedia
“Internet of Everything”
22. The Internet of Things
(4) “Things having identities and virtual personalities
operating in smart spaces using intelligent interfaces to
connect and communicate within social, environmental,
and user contexts”.
-------IoT in 2020
(3) The term "Internet of Things" has come to describe a
number of technologies and research disciplines that
enable the Internet to reach out into the real world of
physical objects.
------IoT 2008

British entrepreneur Kevin Ashton first coined the term in 1999 while working at Auto-ID Labs (originally called Auto-ID centers - referring to a global network of Radio-frequency identification (RFID) connected objects).[10] Typically, IoT is expected to offer advanced connectivity of devices, systems, and services that goes beyond machine-to-machine communications (M2M) and covers a variety of protocols, domains, and applications.[11] The interconnection of these embedded devices (including smart objects), is expected to usher in automation in nearly all fields, while also enabling advanced applications like a Smart Grid,[12] and expanding to the areas such as smart cities.
Cisco Systems refers to IoT as the “Internet of Everything”…
Bruce Schinerer recently referred to two new colloquial terms – World Spanning Robot and Benign Organization. There is also the term “Skynet” in reference to the Terminator movies that is frequently discussed in Blog and online postings/jargon.
Impact of the Internet
In our daily lives, we have become more reliant on IoT with our wearable tech, appliances, our cars, how we receive health care.
M2M/IoT Sector Map :: Beecham Research
http://www.beechamresearch.com/article.aspx?id=4
The following graphic from Beecham Research depicts how the Internet of Things may interact with various service sectors within the public/private sectors and ordinary consumers. Public sector entities (such as universities) may have some level of involvement and interaction within all service sectors depicted; ranging from the operation and industry elements of buildings, to levels of research, retail entities, transportation, and IT/Networks. **Place emphasis on service sectors, that it is likely that at least one example of devices may be found within university networks.
AI: the autonomous and intelligent entities will act in full interoperability & will be able to auto-organize themselves depending on the context, circumstances or environment.
ED is to design the scheme depending on the need
FS means that hundreds and thousands of nodes will be disable and will be set to run.
CAT means that there’s several kinds of media such as vehicle stone that they need different access technologies.

On campuses…(Audience Participation)
And in our institutions of higher learning, IoT is prevalent in the operational and research initiatives…
Lund, D., Turner, V., MacGillivray, C., & Morales, M. (2014, May). Worldwide and Regional Internet of Things (IoT) 2014 – 2020 Forecast: A Virtuous Circle of Proven Value and Demand. Retrieved January 25, 2016, from http://www.business.att.com/content/article/IoT-worldwide_regional_2014-2020-forecast.pdf
The following describes the “moderate forecasts” concerning growth of the IoT markets over the next several years. More extensive forecasts by Cisco Systems project 50 billion units by 2020.
The Internet of Things marketplace is expected to see increased adoption and revenue growth through the year 2020. Moderate expectations of such growth will span across business, government entities and consumers. Business is expected is expected to show the strongest gains, while consumer growth and adoption will be lower, despite more IoT marketing of devices to consumers.

Education – When researching items and tagging them (Radio Frequency Identification) the data can be collected and monitored over a time period.
Information management: research data
… and IoT isn’t “science fiction” or something that will happen in the future – it’s real, and it’s here now. Cisco believes that the inflection point – the point at which the number of connected devices began outnumbering the number of men, women, and children on the planet – happened about five years ago; others in the industry believe that it happened about a year and a half ago. Similarly, Cisco believes that the number of connected objects will grow to about 50 billion over the next several years, while other estimates put that number at 25, 30, or even as high as 200 billion!
Who’s right doesn’t really matter … the point is that we all universally agree on two things: 1) the point of inflection is in the past; and 2) gap is expected to widen exponentially over the next several years. So, IoT is here today, and will continue to grow!
While these benefits can certainly inspire business owners, they can also be construed as largely academic … so let’s take a look at some real-world use cases, to show how IoT will benefit us in our daily lives …
Using ruggedized cameras and communications equipment that can handle the vibration and jolts of a rapidly moving train, a connected network of IoT-enabled cameras can help improve passenger safety by analyzing and correlating events at various stations, as well as on trains – for actionable security intelligence.
The intelligence gained from multiple connected systems can help identify bottlenecks, enable routes and schedules to be tuned for greater efficiency, and even avoid collisions. Likewise, sensors attached to critical parts such as wheels can proactively determine if a part needs to be replaced – before it can cause a devastating accident. Sensors can also alert supervisors if the train is being operated in an unsafe manner, or alert the operator of important changes in track conditions.
In addition, IoT can dramatically reduce a city’s environmental impact and improve its efficiency while reducing costs:
By connecting the city’s infrastructure that controls traffic signals, it can help save fuel usage and reduce traffic congestion, reducing pollution
Controlling road lighting based on the actual need – such as when cars are approaching – can save millions of dollars and conserve energy; parking applications can let drivers know where the spots are available, and “dynamic pricing” based on need can be a new revenue source for the city.
City services such as garbage pickup can be made significantly more efficient, reducing costs and therefore adding to the city’s bottom line
Modern-day cars are a lot less mechanical than what our parents drove. Today’s cars are highly computerized, with hundreds of sensors to assess everything from tire pressure to a loose gas cap. But today, they’re hundreds of individual sensors. Today a dashboard light alerts the driver that they have a tire with low air pressure – but that’s it; no information on how low, whether or not there’s a leak, or even which tire is affected. IoT connects all of these sensors, so that data can be communicated and centrally analyzed to produce actionable intelligence. By monitoring not only the air pressure, but also: the speed of air escape; road conditions; outside temperature, atmospheric pressure, and other relevant data, a centralized controller can analyze that data to turn it into actionable intelligence … does the tire need to be serviced right away? Can it wait? Or is the loss in pressure to be expected, given the other environmental conditions?
In addition, the car has the ability to connect with the city’s infrastructure that controls traffic signals and road lighting, and monitors public parking spaces to save fuel and reduce traffic congestion.
Finally, the sensors can interact with third-party applications such as GPS/mapping to enable dynamic re-routing to avoid traffic, accidents, and other hazards. Similarly, Internet-based entertainment including music and move streaming/downloads can maximize the comfort of a road trip.
IoT requires that connectivity tools be added to the platform, as well as some network elements such as smaller, more self-contained switches and routers for fields, plants, and other operational environments. These network elements are frequently deployed in challenging environments that include harsh weather conditions, significant amounts of vibration, etc., so they need to be ruggedized to function under these conditions.
[ANIMATE]
Now here’s where it gets interesting … one of the primary differences between your existing IT network and an IoT network is all of these additional devices, sensors, and other “smart objects”. It’s important to note that these objects are networked together, yet they’re independent of your network – you don’t own them; oftentimes can’t see them; and you don’t control them in any way, shape, or form. Yet they’re sending petabytes of data through your network – data that’s required by the applications to function properly.
[ANIMATE]
Another difference is in the applications, themselves. Unlike today’s monolithic applications, where the main value is delivered locally from the application’s code, IoT applications derive most of their value from the intelligence that is collected from, and distributed throughout, the network; the application itself is merely the method employed to access that intelligence.
[ANIMATE]
Which leads us to the other major infrastructure difference in an IoT network, which is required to communicate and process all of this intelligence …
As mentioned on the previous slide, the “IoT Network” isn’t a completely separate entity … rather, it utilizes the existing IT network as its foundation, and then supplements it with operational technology (OT) and the billions of sensors, devices, and other smart objects.
Billions of new devices, located in more places throughout the world – many of which are insecure locations – are sending sensitive data through your network … however, these devices reside outside the secure embrace of the existing network. You don’t own them; oftentimes can’t see them; and you don’t control them in any way, shape, or form. Yet they’re sending petabytes of data through your network – data that’s required by the applications to function properly.
Similarly, city services can be impacted, and even privacy and public safety can be thwarted …
Legislation: mandatory that policy keeps up with technology so that citizens gain confidence in the new technology
People’s momentarily context and roles can determine their attitudes towards new technology. An employee will resist his boss’ access to his or her mailbox while the same person may demand the same insight into the mailboxes of subordinates.
