The Internet of Things

This paper is comprehensive, provides a view into the taxonomy of IoT technologies, and clarifies the interconnectivity of devices, processors, and cloud computing. As the paper points out, "IoT is not a single technology; rather it is an agglomeration of various technologies that work together in tandem". Figure 3 presents a detailed taxonomy of research in IoT technologies.

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is defined as a paradigm in which objects equipped with sensors, actuators, and processors communicate with each other to serve a meaningful purpose. In this paper, we survey state-of-the-art methods, protocols, and applications in this new emerging area. This survey paper proposes a novel taxonomy for IoT technologies, highlights some of the most important technologies, and profiles some applications that have the potential to make a striking difference in human life, especially for the differently abled and the elderly. As compared to similar survey papers in the area, this paper is far more comprehensive in its coverage and exhaustively covers most major technologies spanning from sensors to applications.
