The document discusses the Internet of Things (IoT) framework, where all physical objects can be represented and connected to the internet. Specifically, IoT aims to offer new applications and services by connecting physical objects to the cloud through Machine-to-Machine communication. By 2020, it is estimated there will be over 200 billion devices connected through IoT, including smart light bulbs, gardening devices, and many other everyday objects that can be monitored and controlled remotely. Security and data ownership issues will provide challenges as more aspects of daily life become connected through IoT.
