3. Internet Of Things
Internet of things, also called the Internet of Objects “Machine-to-Machine Era”
“Internet of Everything. The term Internet of Things was first used by Kecin Ashton in
1999.The Internet of Things was “Born” between 2008 and 2009.
What is IOT?
Internet of things (IOT) is the term used to describe any kind of application that
connected and made things interact via the internet.
With the huge number of things/objects and sensors/actuators connected to the
Internet, a massive and in some cases real-time data flow will be automatically produced by
connected things and sensors. It is important to collect correct raw data in an efficient way;
but more important is to analyze and mine the raw data to abstract more valuable information
such as correlations among things and services to provide web of things or Internet of
services. However, many challenges and problems remain unsolved as of now or not fully
addressed due to the unique features of IOT systems. First, IOT needs an appropriate
architecture such as a service-oriented, a content-centric, or a thing-centric architecture.
Second, it is truly challenging to design efficient protocols to cater for diverse IOT devices,
sensors and services. The goal of this special issue of IEEE Sensors Journal is to feature
latest advances and directions in IOT architecture, protocols and services for typical IOT use
cases (such as smart grid, connected cars, smart cities, etc), their performance, impact,
demands and implications on future Internet design.

7. Challenges and Issues
 Society: People, security, privacy
o A policy for people in the Internet of Things:
o Legislation
 Environmental aspects
o Resource efficiency
o Pollution and disaster avoidance
 Technological
o Architecture (edge devices, servers, discovery services, security, etc.)
o Governance, naming, identity, interfaces
o Service openness, interoperability
o Connections of real and virtual world
o Standards
 Identity
o Online Fragmentation of Identity
 Efficiency
o speed - person loses identity and is an IP address
 Decisions
o do not delegate too much of our decision making and freedom of choice to things
and machines
