An ever growing interest and wide adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) and Web technologies are unleashing a true potential of designing a broad range of high-quality consumer applications. Smart cities, smart buildings, and e-health are among various application domains which are currently benefiting and will continue to benefit from IoT and Web technologies in a foreseeable future. Similarly,...

The Internet of Things (IoT) concept is evolving rapidly and influencing new developments in various application domains, such as the Internet of Mobile Things (IoMT), Autonomous Internet of Things (A-IoT), Autonomous System of Things (ASoT), Internet of Autonomous Things (IoAT), Internet of Things Clouds (IoT-C) and the Internet of Robotic Things (IoRT) etc. that are progressing/advancing by u...

The modern era has seen a speedy growth in the Internet of Things (IoT). As per statistics of 2020, twenty billion devices will be connected to the Internet. This massive increase in Internet connected devices will lead to a lot of efforts to execute critical concurrent applications such fire detection, health care based system, disaster management, high energy physics, automobiles, and medical...

The application of the two trending and popular technologies, Cloud Computing (CC) and the Internet of Things (IoT) are current hot discussions in the field of agriculture and healthcare applications. Motivated by achieving a sustainable world, this paper discusses various technologies and issues regarding green cloud computing and green Internet of Things, further improves the discussion with ...

The Internet-of-Things (IoT) is unanimously identified as one of the main pillars of future smart scenarios. The potential of IoT technologies and deployments has been already demonstrated in a number of different application areas, including transport, energy, safety and healthcare. However, despite the growing number of IoT deployments, the majority of IoT applications tend to be self-contain...

The Internet of Things (IoT) emerged with the potential to change our daily lives and the way we interact and operate with our environment. However, in practice, IoT mixes a multitude of devices and subsystems, which are required to work together to provide the user with the expected quality of service. This leads to considerable development challenges, which are exacerbated by the speed of dev...

Agriculture is one of the most important aspects of human civilization. The usages of information and communication technologies (ICT) have significantly contributed in the area in last two decades. Internet of things (IOT) is a technology, where real life physical objects (e.g. sensor nodes) can work collaboratively to create an information based and technology driven system to maximize the be...

Internet of Things (IoT) is a heterogeneous, mixed and uncertain ubiquitous network, the application prospect of which is extensive in the field of modern intelligent service. Having done a deep investigation on the discrepancies between service offering and application requirement, we believed that current IoT lacks enough intelligence and cannot achieve the expected increasing applications’ p...

The Internet of Things (IoT) is about inter-networking real word objects in order to foster data exchange and communication among things. In this work we present the IoT Application Profile (IoT-AP) ontology with a particular focus on the pattern-based design methodology used for modelling the ontology.
