The Internet of Things (IoT) and its Application Domains

Abstract

There is no suspicion that IoT has added a new dimension to the living being by the link between smart objects. Thus making the link among any media and anything at any place and anytime was appreciable. Under the umbrella of the Internet of Things (IoT) the number of interconnected devices is expected to grow exponentially toward more than 34 billion devices until 2021. IoT will propose the unique identification of the objects and their virtual representation as the basis for autonomously development of applications and services. These will be characterized by enormous and self-governing data capture, incident transfer, network connectivity and interoperability. This technology has a lot of applications in heterogeneous fields. The IoT technology and applications are likely to be major drivers of investment and innovation in the communications sector, over the forthcoming years, delivering the valued advantage to citizens, client and industrial end-users. These will lead to the introduction of many new and modern services. It will permit data to be transmitted between many various types of devices, enhance the safety of transportation, and decrease the consumption of energy and enhance our health. In this paper, we are briefly discussing about the Internet of Things and applications in several fields. The IoT applications are using at the edge of the network sensors accumulate data on a computing and communicating device and actuators to perform distinguished tasks controlled by these devices.

Advances in Education Through IoT

“…According to a recent study [1], until 2021, the number of devices that are interconnected will exponentially grow to about 34 billion, with wide implications in all domains. The aim of the IoT is to create smart and self-aware environments [5]. Nowadays, the concept of IoT reached all aspects of our living and working.…”

A Privacy Preservation Quality of Service (QoS) Model for Data Exposure in Android Smartphone Usage

“…The Internet of Things (IoT) is embedded deeply in various domains, such as mobile services, smart homes, enterprise services, smart environments, futuristic, personal and social applications, transportation and logistics, healthcare and utilities [ 1 ]. The growth of IoT brings benefits to various fields.…”

Monitoring Air Quality of Dhaka using IoT: Effects of COVID-19

“…Internet o f Things (IoT) is an interconnection of sensing devices, accumulation and transference of data using the internet without any human intervention for making the remote monitoring system where devices can be connected with machine-to-machine (M2M) communication [12]. Environmental conditions monitoring in homes have been inspected in [13]. The author proposes a structure to monitor temperature, humidity and light intensity, based on a combination of distributed sensing units, information system for data accumulation, and adjudication and context awareness.…”
