The traditional view of Internet of Things (IoT) attempts to connect all the physical objects to build a global, infrastructure-based IoT. In this paper, however, we will present opportunistic IoT, which is formed based on the ad hoc, opportunistic networking of devices (e.g., mobile phones, smart vehicles) using short-range radio techniques (e.g., Bluetooth, Wi-Fi). The opportunistic IoT demon...

Internet of Medical Things (IOMT) is playing vital role in healthcare industry to increase the accuracy, reliability and productivity of electronic devices. Researchers are contributing towards a digitized healthcare system by interconnecting the available medical resources and healthcare services. As IOT converge various domains but our focus is related to research contribution of IOT in healt...

The Internet of things (IoT) is a network of smart objects that bridges the gap between the physical and the digital world. The prevalence of IoT leads towards a new digital ecosystem for building novel applications and services. However, heterogeneity in devices, technologies and standards are causing to impede the widespread adoption of IoT. Advances in embedded service oriented architecture ...

In this paper, we give a framework for integration of patients’ Body Area Network with IoT. We also discuss the enabling technologies that may help with the proliferation of the IoT in health care, besides mitigating various interoperability challenges in a health care IoT. We use a health care use-case of an artificial pancreas for diabetic patients to discuss our framework. We describe the fr...

In the era of the Internet of Things (IoT), an enormous amount of sensing devices collect and/or generate various sensory data over time for a wide range of fields and applications. Based on the nature of the application, these devices will result in big or fast/real-time data streams. Applying analytics over such data streams to discover new information, predict future insights, and make contr...

Due to the rapid advancements in the sensor technologies and IoT, we are witnessing a rapid growth in the use of sensors and relevant IoT applications. A very large number of sensors and IoT devices are in place in our surroundings which keep sensing dynamic contextual information. A true potential of the wide-spread of IoT devices can only be realized by designing and deploying a large number ...

Research on Internet of Things (IoT) has been booming for past couple of years due to technological advances and its potential for application. Nonetheless, the rapid growth of IoT articles as well as the heterogeneous nature of IoT pose challenges in synthesizing prior research on the phenomenon. Based on quantitative citation analysis, this Research-in-Progress (RIP) study seeks to tackle the...

Application development in the Internet of Things (IoT) is challenging because it involves dealing with issues that attribute to different life-cycle phases. First, the application logic has to be analyzed and then separated into a set of distributed tasks for an underlying network. Then, the tasks have to be implemented for the specific hardware. Moreover, we take different IoT applications an...

The Internet of Things (IoT) realizes a vision where billions of interconnected devices are deployed just about everywhere, from inside our bodies to the most remote areas of the globe. As the IoT will soon pervade every aspect of our lives and will be accessible from anywhere, addressing critical IoT security threats is now more important than ever. Traditional approaches where security is app...
