Learning objectives
At the end of this chapter, student should be able to:
1.Define what is Internet of Things
2.State the lifecycle of IoT
3.Explain how the IoT works
What is IoT?
❑Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of devices connected to the Internetwith
the ability to collect and exchange data from users or environment with no
human intervention.
❑The device or the ‘thing’ in IoT could be any device embedded with
electronics, software and sensor like a smart refrigerator, a smart air
conditioner, lights in household, connected security systems or even a person
with a heart monitor or an automobile.

➢Is itpossible to assign addresses to all the devices in the world?
➢Yes, IPv6 has a huge address space of 2^128
➢Tons of data are collected from
devices all over the world.
➢Where could we store this huge
sum of data?
➢The data collected from devices is quite large and complex that becomes
difficult to analyse using traditional data processing techniques, we call
those data “Big Data”

Challenges in
IoT
➢ Sensing a complex environment
➢ Innovative ways to sense and deliver information
from physical world to the cloud.
➢ Connectivity
➢ Variety of wired and wireless standards are
required to enable different application needs.
➢ Power
➢ Many IoT applications need to run for years over
battery and reduce the overall energy consumption.
Challenges in
IoT
➢ Security
➢ Protecting user’s privacy, manufacturer’s IP
and blocking malicious activity.
➢ Complexity
➢ IoT application development needs to be easy
for all developers not just to experts.
➢Cloud
➢ IoT applications require end-to-end solutions
including cloud services.
Conclusion
➢ While IoT is complex and poses some risks and is
still evolving, many pioneers have started adopting
this technology.
➢ IoT can help innovate new process and initiatives
that could transform businesses, lives and the
world.
➢ We are also trying to understand what the many
opportunities and challenges are going to be as
more and more devices start to join the IoT.
➢ The best thing that we can do is educate
ourselves about what the IoT is and the potential
impacts that can be seen on how we work and live.
Group discussion
In group, please discuss among team members any applications
that can be done the data analysis.
Present your idea including the title, objective and what are the
data that you want to analyze.
