With the aim of providing designer guidelines for choosing the most suitable solution, according to the given design specifications, in this paper a review of charge pump (CP) topologies for the power management of Internet of Things (IoT) nodes is presented. Power management of IoT nodes represents a challenging task, especially when the output of the energy harvester is in the order of few hundreds of millivolts. In these applications, the power management section can be profitably implemented, exploiting CPs. Indeed, presently, many different CP topologies have been presented in literature. Finally, a data-driven comparison is also provided, allowing for quantitative insight into the state-of-the-art of integrated CPs.

In many ways the Internet of Things will change everything, as devices and software mesh and become part of the connected fabric of the Internet. This article explores the context and potential offered by the growth of the Internet of Things (IoT). It provides an overview of this next phase of the digital revolution that is underpinned by the growth of the social web, web 2.0, and the convergence of technologies such as mobile and ubiquitous broadband. This article also attempts to provide some insight into the potential value of the Internet of Things market in the future. The opportunities offered by the Internet of Things also raise serious questions about privacy and security in a connected world. As Umair Haque noted recently: “At some point, we should all question the value of an internet that objectifies you, tracks you, and polices you...without your consent.” (Haque 2014)


This article explores how municipalities plan and utilize Internet of Things (IoT) for smart city development, as well as how they collaborate with actors in the IoT-ecosystem. To do so, in-depth interviews and secondary information are collected from municipalities in Norway. Overall, the empirical findings confirm that IoT has the potential to make municipalities smarter by improving public services, efficiency of internal management and service delivery. The findings form this study is novel and can help executives to gain practical insight into the theory-heavy subject of smart city development in small and medium sized municipalities

The paper provides insight into various swarm intelligence based routing protocols for Internet of Things (IoT), which are currently available for the Mobile Ad-hoc networks (MANETs) and wireless sensor networks (WSNs). There are several issues which are limiting the growth of Internet of Things. These include the reliability, link failures, routing, heterogeneity etc. The MANETs and WSNs routing issues impose almost same requirements for IoT routing mechanism. The recent work of the worldwide researchers is focused on this area. protocols are based on the principles of swarm intelligence. The swarm intelligence is applied to achieve the optimality and the efficiency in solving the complex, multi-hop and dynamic requirements of the wireless networks. The application of the ACO technique tries to provide answers to many routing issues. Using the swarm intelligence and ant colony optimization principles, it has been seen that, the protocols’ efficiency definitely increases and also provides more scope for the development of more robust, reliable and efficient routing protocols for the IoT. As the various standard protocols available for MANETs and WSNs are not reliable enough, the paper finds the need of some efficient routing algorithms for IoT.

Bluetooth technology started off as a wireless, short-range cable replacement technology but it has undergone significant developments over the last two decades. Bluetooth radios are currently embedded in almost all computing devices including personal computers, smart phones, smart watches, and even micro-controllers. For many of us, Bluetooth is an essential technology that we use every day. We provide an insight into the history of Bluetooth and its significant design developments over the last 25 years. We also discuss related issues (including security) and Bluetooth as a driving technology for the Internet of Things (IoT). Finally, we also present recent research results obtained with Bluetooth technology in various application areas.

AbstractThe Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of embedded devices that are uniquely identifiable and have embedded software required to communicate between the transient states. The purpose of this study is to explore discrete IoT security challenges pertaining to currently deployed IoT standards and protocols. We have presented a detailed review in this study that focuses on IoT's imminent security aspects, covering identification of risks pertaining to the current IoT system, novel security protocols, and security projects proffered in recent years. This work presents an updated review of the IoT architecture in the protocols and standards that are proffered for the next-gen IoT systems. A security-specific comparative analysis of protocols, standards, and proffered security models are presented as per IoT security requirements. This study elicits the need for standardization at the communication and data audit level, which exposes the hardware, software, and data to various threats and attacks. Our study reveals a need for protocols that are competent enough to be accorded for over one threat vector. This paper provides an insight into the latest security research trends, which will prove beneficial in the development of IoT security. The research outcomes can benefit the research community in IoT by integrating IoT-based devices' best security aspects.

Internet of Things (IoT) is defined as a convergence of multiple technologies that interconnect physical and virtual objects over a network to improve our quality of life. These services deal with numerous interactions between devices, each having its own functionality and user flows. A large emphasis has always been placed on the technical aspects of IoT but very little importance has been given to researching factors that could have a significant effect on a user’s intention to use and adopt these services. Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Value-based Adoption Model (VAM) are two of the most widely used models to discovering the potential user’s intention to use a new technology. This paper examines these models to provide insight into determining factors that directly affect IoT service adoption by users and applies it to developing a coherent and engaging user interface for an existing IoT system.

Internet of Things (IoT) is a novel approach of connecting things/objects and thus transmitting information between various entities of the physical world or to the control centers where this information can be interpreted. IoT has been poised as the next evolution of internet promising to change our lives by involving a seamless access to people and devices in a ubiquitous way leading to a smart world. These devices, often referred to as smart items or intelligent things can be home appliances, healthcare devices, vehicles, buildings, factories and almost anything networked and fitted with sensors, actuators, and/or embedded computers. IoT promises to make the world smarter and proactive by enabling things to talk and others to understand. This work first presents an insight into the origin of IoT and its network as well as data centric architecture while listing the major possibilities. The seemingly important role and challenges of using Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) which acts as the base in sensing and monitoring has been discussed. Since, the future lies in utility computing, best realized in the form of cloud computing, a cloud centric view of IoT is also presented.

<p>Internet of Things (IoT) is the expansion of web administrations. Employments of new advancements in IoT condition are expanding quickly. A Smart Home is additionally one of the uses of IoT. A Smart Switchboard constrains customer’s execution in watching home settings and controlling home machines. This paper shows an approach to manage the progression of Smart Home applications by consolidating IoT with Web server and Cloud organize. The approach concentrates on: (1) implanting insight into sensors utilizing Energia stage [7]; (2) Creating collaborations with brilliant things utilizing Blynk-Cloud stage; (3) expanding information trade proficiency. At the point when these family unit gadgets in brilliant homes interface with the web utilizing legitimate design, then entire framework can be called as Smart Home in IoT condition or IoT based Smart Homes. Keen Homes contains family unit gadgets/home apparatuses could screen and control remotely. In addition, we execute three cases to show the approach's possibility and productivity, i.e., measuring home conditions, observing electrical machines, and controlling home robotization. </p>
