The document discusses the Internet of Things (IoT). It defines IoT as connecting everyday consumer objects and industrial equipment to the network to increase efficiency and enable new services. It notes that IoT represents an evolution where objects can interact with each other. Key attributes of IoT include sensing using attached sensors, adding intelligence to manual processes for efficiency, connecting objects to networks, customizing technology for specific industries, and deploying technologies pervasively. The document outlines trends in IoT from 2014 to 2015, including a shift from hype to reality, increased wireless sensors and devices, machine-to-machine interactions, applications, partnerships, big data, cloud integration, analytics, new business processes, education, wearables, security, and

2. Introduction
 “The Internet of Things (IoT) connects devices such as
everyday consumer objects and industrial equipment
onto the network, enabling information gathering and
management of these devices via software to increase
efficiency, enable new services, or achieve other health,
safety or environmental benefits.” (Goldman Sachs)
 “The Internet of Things represents an evolution in which
objects are capable of interacting with other objects.”
(IBM)
 “The Internet of Things is emerging as the third wave in
the development of the Internet. The IoT has the
potential to connect 28 billion “things” to the Internet by
2020, ranging from bracelets to cars.” (Goldman Sachs)
 “The Internet of Things refers to uniquely identifiable
objects (things) and their virtual representations in an
Internet-like structure. (Wikipedia)

3. Introduction (contd.)
 Key attributes of IoT:
◦ Sensing – Leverages sensors attached to
things (e.g., temperature, pressure,
acceleration)
◦ Efficiency – Adds intelligence to manual
processes (e.g., reduce power usage on hot
days)
◦ Networking – Conects objects to the network
(e.g., cars, watches)
◦ Specialization – customizes technology and
process to specific verticals (e.g., healthcare,
retail, oil)
◦ Everywhere – Deployed pervasively (e.g., on
the human body, in cars, homes, cities,
factories)

6. Areas of Interest
 Security and Privacy: Trust and
authentication must be considered across all
elements of the IoT, including devices, the
networks, the cloud, and the software apps.
 Big Data: The “things” will produce even
more data than what they are for now, taxing
our already complex enterprise Information
Management systems.
 IoT Analytics: Increasingly, analytics
capabilities will be pushed to the edge of the
networks. Advanced analytics and
dashboards will be needed to provide insights
from all the “things”.
