Abstract
Internet of things has gathered significance within the latest technology domain and trends. As a result, it offers greater ways of accessing data and utilizing intelligent systems. IoT applications are developed for specific scenarios (i.e., smart home, smart transportation, smart agriculture, e-health, etc.). Such IoT applications are inefficient for sharing data and knowledge through services. This results in an inefficient exploitation of different IoT service applications. Social internet of things (SIoT) has efficient and effective ways to support these kinds of services. A concept of social internet of things has been proposed in this chapter in order to support efficient data sharing. This chapter explores related work and literature study on social internet of things, concentrates on mapping IoT with SIoT, and describes a possible architecture for SIoT, components, layers and processes of SIoT. It also illustrates applications, where SIoT can be used, and at the end, the authors provide a few challenges related to SIoT.
