The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the evolution of the internet as the interconnection not just of computers, but also uniquely identifiable, pervasive embedded devices such as smart thermostats and wearable technology. Research has estimated there will be nearly 30 billion devices on the Internet of Things by 2020. The implementation and deployment of the IoT brings with it management challenges around seamless integration, heterogeneity, scalability, mobility, security, and many other issues. This comprehensive book explores these challenges and looks at possible solutions. Topics covered include system architectures for the IoT in pervasive scenarios; sustainable design and solutions for the IoT; middleware and service platforms for IoT applications; security and privacy in IoT scenarios; machine-to-machine (M2M) paradigms in the IoT; context awareness in the IoT; mobility management in the IoT and in M2M communications; security, trust, privacy and identity in the IoT; modelling and evaluating quality in IoT; interworking with cloud computing; adaptive architectures and application for IoT; IoT big data analysis. With contributions from an international team of leading experts in this interdisciplinary field, researchers in academia and industry, working in telecommunications, sensor networks, computing and security, and developing IoT technologies will find this book of interest.
