Internet of Things: The Vision

Internet of Things: A vision by Mark Weiser to extend Internet

of computers to include objects or things in the real world and

to access them to enable Ubiquitous Computing. It is called as

the Internet of Things.

Enablers for Internet of Things:

�Everyday gadgets have turned into Smart objects

empowered by microelectronics and having embedded

computing and communications capabilities, they can

computing and communications capabilities, they can

revolutionize their utility .

�Developments in Internet technology and wireless

communications have enabled to form a network of smart

objects in which they can communicate with each other to

provide new useful services for different domains like

transport, healthcare, home automation and so on.

Characteristics Of Internet Of Things

�Network of very large no. of smart physical objects mostly

using wireless communication and with a local Server for overall

control.

�Each smart object has intelligence to read data from sensors

and to drive the actuators as per the programmed logic.

�Smart objects may not be stationary and the network must be

self-configuring.

�Data from smart objects is heterogeneous and unstructured

IoT Applications for Connected Vehicle and Intelligent Transport Systems

�Data from smart objects is heterogeneous and unstructured

since it comes from diverse sources.

�The required response time for the smart object is critical to

implement Real Time control. The object needs to be supported

with information and processing power by the Server.

�Information security of the network is important to guard

privacy and to protect the smart objects from unauthorized

access.

Page 7: IoT applications for connected vehicle and ITS

Cloud Computing For Internet Of Things

Cloud Computing:

Internet of computer workstations shares resources for storage and

computing. The resources are located in a central Data Center away from the

workstation and are said to a form a Cloud. Cloud provides services to meet

computing needs of all client workstations and the paradigm is called as Cloud

computing.

Challenges in application of Cloud Computing for Internet of Things:

�The limited communication and computing resources of smart objects

IoT Applications for Connected Vehicle and Intelligent Transport Systems

�The limited communication and computing resources of smart objects

do not permit direct connection to Cloud Server.

�The latency in response from Cloud Server may not be adequate for

Real Time analysis and control applications in Internet of Things.

Solution:

�Introducing small Servers as clients of main cloud Server and locate

these very near to the smart objects forming Internet of Things.

�In contrast to main server in Cloud, these small servers are near edge or

ground level of network (like a fog); hence they are called Fog servers and

the paradigm is called as Fog Computing.

Page 8: IoT applications for connected vehicle and ITS

Need For Fog Computing

Fog Computing:

Fog Computing extends storage and computing services of Cloud to the Edge of

the network to serve Smart objects in Internet of Things.

Advantages of Fog Computing:

�Fog Server uses IPv6 protocol to handle very large no of Smart Objects

(The 128 bit address can handle 3.4x 1038 objects)

�Fog Server reduces latency to few milliseconds by acting at three levels:

�Data latency is reduced by taking snapshot of data in memory just

IoT Applications for Connected Vehicle and Intelligent Transport Systems

�Data latency is reduced by taking snapshot of data in memory just

when it is required.

�Analysis latency is reduced by using Real Time Analytics which uses in-

memory techniques to use snapshots of data from multiple smart

objects.

�Action latency is reduced by direct connection with the smart object.

�Use of GPS and similar technologies enables Fog Server to use location

based context while computing and providing required results for the

application.

and speed) using wireless links with other vehicles on road (V2V). Also it can

communicate with infrastructures like signal, road sign, bus stop, toll

stations, fuel pumps etc using vehicle to infrastructure (V2I) communication.

�The wireless communication technologies used by a connected vehicle

IoT Applications for Connected Vehicle and Intelligent Transport Systems

�The wireless communication technologies used by a connected vehicle

include GSM, Bluetooth, ZigBee, Wi-Fi & Wi-Max and DSRC(Dedicated

Short Range Communication).

�Communication technologies in Connected Vehicle have a larger range of

up to 1000 meters and have a higher potential to protect the vehicle from

crashes with obstacles and other vehicles on road as compared to on-vehicle

Radars, Cameras and LIDAR systems.

�While safety systems like Air Bag help to survive the occupant after a crash,

the V2V and V2I communications help to prevent the accident itself.

�The effective implementation of ITS is hampered in many cases due to lack of

connectivity between various stakeholders and systems in transport domain

domains under one umbrella of communication to provide a Common

Operating Picture for easier visualization of new services to benefit individuals

and to protect the environment.
