Clarity of Knowledge Gap Between IoT and AoT - Professionals’ Perspectives

Abstract

In this era, we have the basic idea of “Internet of Things”. We know that IoT refers to the vast network of interconnected physical devices or "things" that are embedded with sensors, softwares, and other technologies to collect and exchange data over the internet. These "things" can be anything from household appliances and industrial machines to wearable devices and vehicles. But what will be the outcome if the word “Analytics” added in the place of the word “Internet” and will be attached with the word “things” and will be termed as “Analytics of Things”? Will it be as similar as Internet of Things or it will be completely different from Internet of Things? Shall there be any other functionalities related to “things” associated with the word “Analytics”? Will it require Internet? This research paper will answer all the questions.
