The Internet of Things (IoT) is experiencing fast adoption in the society, from industrial to home applications. The number of deployed sensors and connected devices to the Internet is changing our perspective and the way we understand the world. The development and generation of IoT applications is just starting and they will modify our physical and virtual lives, from how we control remotely ...

Network communication and micro-electro-mechanical embedded technologies have attracted much attention in recent years. Through these technologies, the capabilities of sensing, identification, and communication can be embedded in various smart devices. These smart devices can automatically connect to the Internet and form an intelligent network called Internet of Things (IoT). However, these de...

The Internet of Things (IoT) is experiencing exponential growth in research and industry, but it still suffers from privacy and security vulnerabilities. Conventional security and privacy approaches tend to be inapplicable for IoT, mainly due to its decentralized topology and the resource-constraints of the majority of its devices. BlockChain (BC) that underpin the cryptocurrency Bitcoin have b...

This paper presents realization of ultra low voltage circuit design for Internet of Things. Internet of Things (IoT) is an emerging field and has gained more attention among the researchers. This is a rapidly emerging application that allows people and things to be connected anywhere and anytime, using any path or network. IoT devices can communicate among themselves and perform the desired act...

The Internet of Things (IoT) has gained an incredible importance in the communication and networking industry due to its innovative solutions and advantages in diverse domains. The IoT' network is a network of smart physical objects: devices, vehicles, buildings, etc. The IoT has a number of applications ranging from smart home, smart surveillance to smart healthcare systems. Since IoT consists...

The Internet of Things (IoT) has attracted a lot of attention the last decade due to the unprecedented opportunities it provides for economic growth and for improving the quality of life of citizens. The advances in the IoT domain have been quite important and especially in the areas of IoT hardware, data and context extraction, service provisioning and service composition, cognition, interoper...

Recent advances in Smart City infrastructures and the Internet of Things represent a significant opportunity to improve people’s quality of life. Corresponding research often focuses on Cloud-centric network architectures where sensor devices transfer collected data to the Cloud for processing. However, the formidable traffic generated by countless IoT devices and the need for low-latency servi...

The author believes that there is a strong distinction between the “Internet of Things” (IOT) and “Things on the Internet” (TOTI). Many of the current use cases can be solved with the TOTI view for example cloud based data analytics where devices passively provide data that are aggregated and processed in the cloud. In such cases, solving the primary requirements of connecting these devices (se...

Despite the increasing presence of Internet of Things (IoT) devices inside the home, we know little about how users feel about their privacy living with Internet-connected devices that continuously monitor and collect data in their homes. To gain insight into this state of affairs, we conducted eleven semi-structured interviews with owners of smart homes, investigating privacy values and expect...

In the emerging Industrial IoT era, Machine-toMachine (M2M) communication technology is considered as a key underlying technology for building Industrial IoT environments where devices (e.g., sensors, actuators, gateways) are enabled to exchange information with each other in an autonomous way without human intervention. However, most of the existing M2M protocols that can be also used in the I...
