Internet of Things
Solomon Walker & David JerkovicSlide2
What is the Internet of Things (IOT)?
The Internet of Things is the idea that everyday objects can be embedded with electronics that connect them to the internet or local networks creating a network inhabited by objects releasing and sharing data.
The Global Standards Initiative on Internet of Things defines it as “a global infrastructure for the information society, enabling advanced services by interconnecting things based on existing and evolving interoperable information and communication technologies.
“Things” could be anything from cars, to smart cities, to medical biochips, to the lamps in your home.
Experts believe that the IOT could grow to 30 billion “things” by 2020Slide3Slide4
How did the IOT begin?
The first internet-connected appliance (shown to the left) was a modified Coke machine at Carnegie Mellon University that could report its inventory and temperature of sodas!
Various ID techniques such as the Auto-ID center at MIT and Radio-frequency identification helped beckon larger IOT networks.Slide5
What industry says about IoT?Slide6
How does IOT work?
The system architecture will largely be event-driven, as certain parameters, when reached by sensors, would send an event prompting some response in another system.
For example, if your house using a smart thermometer system to heat it in the Winter, when the temperature falls below the threshold set by the user, digital sensors will trigger an event when the temperature they sense falls too low, turning the heating system on
IOT will rely heavily on IPv6 as the extra address space will be necessary to hold the enormous amount of extra devices connecting to the internet.Slide7
Architecture Layers of IoT InfrastructureSlide8
What can IOT be used for?Slide9
Diversity of IoT systemsSlide10
Applications: Media
It’s obvious that several media devices are becoming a huge part of the IOT
Every modern device that people use these days is connected to the internet
How the IOT benefits is the capture and categorization of the data collected from these devices
The data capture from these media devices via the IOT allows media industries to target consumers for advertising
In this example, Big Data and IOT work in conjunctionSlide11
Environmental Monitoring
When IOT is used with the environment, it is usually used to protect it
Water, soil, atmosphere conditions can continually be checked and recorded using sensors connected to the IOT
Wildlife monitoring can find the behavior and habitats of animals to further aid in protecting and conserving them
Natural emergency sensors can detect occurrences such as earthquakes and tsunamis and provide an early-warning system to protect people in disaster-prone areasSlide12
Infrastructure Management
Sensors imbedded in infrastructure such as roads, bridges, railway tracks, or power lines could be used to monitor those structures and determine if they are in need of repair or in danger of failureSlide13
Manufacturing
IOT is used extensively in manufacturing not only to sensor machines for repair and such, but to do incredibly detailed and high-level data collection and analysis including, but not limited to maintenance prediction, process control, asset management, and statistical evaluation for maximum reliability
To the left is a pyramid showing the design architecture of cyber-physical systems-enabled manufacturing system.Slide14
Medical and Healthcare
IOT can allow sensors in hospitals and even in human bodies to connect to the internet and share data.
This allows doctors to see and act on data without intrusion (barring the initial insertion)
Also, these sensors can send signals for emergencies, hopefully allowing responders to act on the emergency quickly and efficiently to help the patient
“Smart beds” in hospitals can send out signals to keep nurses up to date with current patient status and alert them if anything goes wrongSlide15
Metropolitan Deployment
Cars connected to the IOT could report traffic data and help GPS navigation alter itself to help traffic decongest on the fly
Along with cars, several traffic controllers, such as stop lights and speed limit signs, could change their values and functions on the fly to help with current traffic
Sensors in cities could link up with people’s smartphones to help them with finding parking, environmental monitoring, and even to see an agenda for any city events
To the left, we see a digital speed limit sign that can change its value based on vehicle congestionSlide16
What are the issues with IOT?
At the moment, there is no technical standardization to help standardize the creation and connection to the IOT. This hinders the connection of new technologies to technologies already in place
As so many devices grow more connected to the IOT, many people are beginning to worry about a breach of their privacy.
Technology, such as chips and transmitters, in more and more objects means more of an environmental hazard if the objects are disposed of improperlySlide17
Operational aspects of IoT systems
Rapidly collects the data (requires capable back end, most likely Cloud-based with technology/database that can support big-data, e.g. Hadoop)
Visualization of the data is a challenge
Security is the challenge:
Security of the sensor
Security of the transport to gateway
Security of the gateway
Security of the transport to the database
Security of the databaseSlide18
Protocols
Service oriented approach – Device Profile for Web Services (DPWS)
Resource oriented approach – The Constrained Application Protocol (
CoAP
)
Message oriented approach – The MQ Telemetry Transport ProtocolSlide19
Device Profile for Web Services (DPWS) Slide20
The Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP)Slide21
The MQ Telemetry Transport ProtocolSlide22
Protocols comparison
CoAP uses UDP
MQTT uses TCP
DPWS uses both TCP and UDP (TCP for device interactions, UDP for discovery)
MQTT and DPWS support TLS
CoAP supports DTLS
MQTT supports
QoS
, with 3 modes of delivery:
Fire and forget
Deliver at least once
Deliver exactly onceSlide23
C-CASP: Primer on IoT design
C-CASP

Purpose:
A cloud-controlled system allowing users to monitor and view reports of the data generated by a network of wireless microcontrollers affixed with various environmental sensors.
Uses:
Multi-Platform Potential – Agriculture, Irrigation, Small Scale Mechanical, and anything else users that can think of within the scope of the Arduino peripherals and attachmentsSlide24
C-CASP: Technology used
Web Application
Front-end uses Bootstrap, CSS, HTML, JavaScript, and jQuery
Back-end uses Amazon Web Services for web server, application deployment, database hosting, and media storage; Python and Django framework
