Abstract
The recent development of communication devices and wireless network technologies continues to advance the new era of the Internet and the telecommunications. The vision for the Internet of Things (IoT) states that various “things”, which include not only communication devices but also every other physical object on the planet, are going to be connected and will be controlled across the Internet. The concept of the IoT has attracted significantly attention from many investigators in recent years. The incessant scientific improvements make possible to construct smart devices with huge potentials for sensing and connecting, allowing several enhancements based on the IoT paradigm. This chapter presents a review on research on IoT and analyses several IoT projects focused on IoT architectures, elements, Quality of Service (QoS) and currently open issues. The main objective of this chapter is to allow the reader to have an overview on the most important concepts and fundamental knowledge in IoT.
