Presented by:
So What *IS* the Internet of Things
• A collection of unique objects gathered in an Internet-like-like structure
• Term coined by Kevin Ashton in 1999– Proctor and Gamble, later MIT
• Started primarily as tracking – was basis for RFID
• Outgrowth in tagging: bar codes, QR, digital watermarks, etc

Presented by:
Ashton’s take on the IoT
“If we had computers that knew everything there was to know about things—using data they gathered without any help from us—we would be able to track and count everything, and greatly reduce waste, loss and cost. We would know when things needed replacing, repairing or recalling, and whether they were fresh or past their best. The Internet of Things has the potential to change the world, just as the Internet did. Maybe even more so.“ (2009)

Presented by:
Everything about Everything
• IoT quickly grew from simply tracking some objects to the concept of tracking ‘everything of interest’
• Depending on the definition, you can then monitor ‘parameters of interest’ associated with each object – not just location (and sometimes location is not of interest)
• There are more than a dozen DIFFERENT definitions of IoT – and growing!

Presented by:
Ericsson:
• “We have a vision of 50 billion connected devices by 2020”
• “Anything that benefits from being connected will be connected”
- IoT Devcon, 2014

Presented by:
What “Flavor” of IoT?
• The IoT is now being thought of as two types of network, coined the Human IoT and the Industrial IoT
• The “Human IoT” is characterized as having human interaction and low failure impact.
• The “Industrial IoT” is characterized as operating without direct human interaction and oversight, sometimes with potential catastrophic failure impact.

Presented by:
Human IoT (HIoT)
• Human-controlled or at least monitored• Can include a person using a device (phone, tablet,
computer, etc.• Includes most consumer and wellness devices,
although there is crossover. For example:– If your connected home thermostat fails, in most cases you
will detect this and it becomes a nuisance issue– A thermostat in an unoccupied dwelling, or in an industrial
process, or in an area that must be kept at a certain temperature range for safety can cause a catastrophic failure
10
Presented by:
Industrial IoT (IIoT)
• Primarily devices that work with one another without human interaction or intervention (M2M)
• Robustness, controlled failure modes, security become primary issues
• “Consumer” items can quickly cross over, as a phone app can control your home or even your car. Or monitor life-critical health issues.
11
Presented by:
Research versus Market
• There are many diverse research efforts into the future of IoT, taking the concept in different directions
• Many of these increase scope of object count and parameter type and number greatly into the realm of Big Data (TB and beyond)
• Cloud computing and cloud storage will be KEY!
13
Presented by:
Communications
• Optical – bar code, QR, OCR, bio• Passive transponder – RFID• PAN – ZigBee, BTLE, Z-wave, 6LoPAN, etc• WiFi (802.11x)• ISM• Cell (4G, 5G, 3GPP, CDMA, etc)• Wired xxbaseT, CAN, others• Others, “all of the above”
14
Presented by:
What to do with all this data??
• “to the Cloud!!”• Big Data principles• Privacy, security will be huge areas for
development• Regulatory issues that must be met today and
in the future• Sampling and Monte Carlo • Trends, patterns
15
Presented by:
Reliability
• Failure can be catastrophic• Known failure modes or “fail-safe”• Toyota gas pedal
16
Presented by:
Our Challenges
• How to we interface to “the cloud” – and what cloud?
• What interfaces and what protocols?• First we need to understand cloud computing
and cloud storage• Tune in tomorrow!
