A flexible architecture is always required when trying to communicate with heterogeneous kind of systems, and IoT is the largest communication network of the history, which is bringing life to everything around us. Currently available three and four layered communication architectures are the popular basic structures to implement IoT. Where three Layers architecture is composed of perception, network and application layers and four layer architecture is composed of perception, network, service, application layer. The problem with existing architectures is that some layers are not well managed and complex in structure and lacks in the interoperability of different kind devices. In this research we present a virtualization enabled architecture Flexible Layered Architecture for Internet of Things (FLA-IoT) to overcome those challenges. FLA-IoT provides a simple structure with well-organized layers and introduces the creation of Virtual Mote (virtual object) from all real-world devices to enable the communication between unlike devices. This results in an indiscriminate communication between different real-world devices with a well-managed layered architecture.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
