A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE INTERNET OF THINGS

The Internet of Things term is coined by Kevin Ashton in 1999.executive director of the Auto-ID Center to describe a system where the Internet isconnected to the physical world via ubiquitous sensors

The problem is, people have limited time, attention and accuracy -- all of which means they are not very good at capturing data about things in the real world. If we had computers that knew everything there was to know about things -- using data they gathered without any help from us -- we would be able to track and count everything and greatly reduce waste, loss and cost. We would know when things needed replacing, repairing or recalling and whether they were fresh or past their best.”

A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE INTERNET OF THINGS

DEFINITIONThe Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical objects or "things" embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity, which enables these objects to collect and exchange data. .The Internet of Things allows objects to be sensed and controlled remotely across existing network infrastructure

DEFINITION

BENEFITS OF IOT

There are many advantages of incorporating IoT into our lives, which can help individuals, businesses, and society on a daily basis.   For individuals this new concept can come in many forms including health, safety, financially, and every day planning.Transportation Inventory managementPromotionsAssessing web user intelligence

BENEFITS OF IOT

ISSUES (CHALLENGES AND BARRIERS ) TO IOT

1- Privacy2- Security

3- Deployment of IPv6.4- Sensor energy5- Standards.

It is important to note that while barriers and challenges exist, they are not insurmountable.Given the benefits of IoT, these issues will get worked out. It is only a matter of time.

ISSUES (CHALLENGES AND BARRIERS ) TO IOT

TECHNOLOGIES IOT

• RFID• WiFi IEEE 802.11• Barcode e QR Code• ZigBee IEEE 802.15.4• Sensors and smartphones

RFID stands for Radio-Frequency IDentification

TECHNOLOGIES IOT

WiFi IEEE 802.11Very commonWidely used both in indoor and outdoor environmentsGeneral purposeLow costHighly interoperableMaybe not a good solution in some special conditions

TECHNOLOGIES IOT

Barcode e QR Code

combining the use of RFID tags with both barcodes and QR codes allows the consumer to connect to the IoT with the simple scan of a smartphone or tablet.• Low cost• No technological difficulties• Several devices can read a barcode• Starting point for more complex systems• Example: price comparison, credit card

TECHNOLOGIES IOT

Barcode QR Code

TECHNOLOGIES IOT

ZigBee IEEE 802.15.4• Low cost• Very long battery life• Easy to deploy• Can be used globally• Secure• Ideal for WPAN and mesh networks• Support for multiple network topologies

TOP APPLICATIONS IOT

• Traffic monitoring• Health• Security• Transport and Logistics• Daily life and domotics

TOP APPLICATIONS IOT

As often happens, history is repeating itself. Just as in the early days when Cisco’s tagline was “The Science of Networking Networks,” IoT is at a stage where disparate networks and a multitude of sensors must come together and interoperate under a common set of standards. This effort will require businesses, governments, standards organizations, and academia to work together toward a common goal.Next, for IoT to gain acceptance among the general populace, service providers and others must deliver applications that bring tangible value to peoples’ lives. IoT must not represent the advancement of technology for technology’s sake; the industry needs to demonstrate value in human terms.

THE FUTURE OF IOT

THE FUTURE OF IOT

• World sensor networks• Home automation and domotics• Daily life (traffic monitoring, shopping, etc.)• Tracking and shipping of goods• Health• Unpredictable developments...

CONCLUSIONS

1- The IoT links smart objects to the Internet. It can enable an exchange of data never available before

2- Machine-to-machine (M2M) communication is at the heart of what is identified as the “Internet of Things” (IoT)

3-Enablers of the IoT (Cheap sensors, Cheap bandwidth, Cheap processing, Smartphones, Ubiquitous wireless coverage , Big data,IPv6 )
