 IoT definition

• It is a new buzzword!

“IoT is a dynamic global network infrastructure with self-configuring capabilities based on

standard and interoperable communication protocols where physical and virtual ‘Things’
have identities, physical attributes, and virtual personalities and use intelligent interfaces,
and are seamlessly integrated into the information network.”

• We have some examples. But which one is IoT?

• Fire detection and alarm systems?
• Train signaling?
• Wireless telecom systems?

 Recent developments

• Miniaturization ( Small and cheap)

• Being part of a global network
• Distributed computing power
• Expect to be self-healing
