Abstract
Internet of Things is a platform where every day devices become smarter, every day processing becomes intellectual, and every day communication becomes revealing. While the Internet of Things is still seeking its own platform, its effects have already stared in making unbelievable stride as a universal solution media for the connected scenario. Architecture specific study does always pave the conformation of related field. The insufficient of overall architectural knowledge is presently holds the researchers to get through the scope of Internet of Things centric approaches. This literature surveys Internet of Things oriented architectures that are capable enough to improve the understanding of related technology and methodology they used to facilitate developer’s requirements. Directly or indirectly, the presented architectures propose to solve real-life problems by building and deployment of powerful Internet of Things notions. Further, research challenges have been investigated to incorporate inside the current trends of architectures to motivate the academics and industries get involved into seeking the possible way outs to apt the exact power of Internet of Things. A main contribution of this survey paper is that it summarizes the current state-of-the-art of Internet of Things architectures in various domains analytically.
Description
Evolution of internet began by connecting computers. Later many computers were connected together which created World Wide Web. Then mobile devices were able to connect to the internet which leads to mobile-Internet technique. People started using the internet via social networks. Finally the idea of connecting daily objects to the internet was proposed, which lead to the Internet of Things technology [4]. First time the term ―Internet of Things: word was used by Kevin Ashton in a presentation during 1998. [2]. He has mentioned ―The Internet of Things has the potential to change the world, just as the Internet did May be even more so‖. Later during 2001, MIT AutoID Lab centre presented their view on IoT. Then during 2005, this is formally recognized by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). IoT creates a world where all the objects (also called smart objects) around us are connected to the Internet and communicate with each other with minimum human intervention. The ultimate goal is to create ‗a better world for human beings‘, where objects around us know what we like, what we want, and what we need and act accordingly without explicit instructions.
