A global infrastructure for the information society,
enabling advanced services by interconnecting (physical
and virtual) Things based on, existing and evolving,
interoperable information and communication
technologies.
 Through the exploitation of identification, data capture,
processing and communication capabilities, the IoT makes
full use of things to offer services to all kinds of
applications, whilst ensuring that security and privacy
requirements are fulfilled.
 In a broad perspective, the IoT can be perceived as a vision
with technological and societal implications.

Editor's Notes

  • #7: During last 4 years, we have seen an explosion in terms of numbers of new platforms. At the beginning of 2015, our counting went over 200, but we have discovered many others during the second part of 2015.
  • #12: Motivation and opportunities: a multitude of highly-specialised IoT solutions which target niche markets A promising landscape can easily turn into a deployment and management nightmare especially for small stakeholders! Clear separation of concerns between stakeholders focus on their specific solutions and business models
  • #13: Virtual Personal Assistants (across platforms)
  • #15: Cross-layer approach IoT platforms as black boxes, closed platforms contributed by SMEs. Will be ehnaced by additional symbIoTe service (e.g. bartering and trading of resources) otherwise noti provided by native platforms.
