  The world strives to exploit the fourth revolution in technology, including the great developments such as the Internet of Things (IoT) to improve life. IoT technology is used in many areas of life from industry health and environment to personal life. Agriculture is, therefore, one of the key sectors of life that have benefited from modern technology such as the use of drones for crop assessment, irrigation, monitoring and mapping, big data in crop analysis for companies and countries. The Internet of Things was not far off as it was introduced to monitor plant irrigation. Increased awareness of the environment and the exploitation of small and semi-enclosed areas in agriculture and turning them into green areas. The IoT technology converts this process into intelligent and dynamic based on wireless sensing with the help of the device programmed by the Arduino. This data is collected in Power BI what to help in the future development of the device and analysis of the data. The device senses soil moisture and temperature and connects it to its cloud platform for optimal management of future planting. The device senses soil moisture and temperature and connects it to its cloud power BI platform for optimal management of future planting. This technology helps reduce agricultural costs and labor. Therefore, this paper proposes an intelligent system with the help of the Internet of Things in the management of smart farming in apartment building with the help of Arduino.

Internet of Things (IoT) conception has become a popular trend among industries. Many have already adopted the technology and put it into practice. IoT can incentive and change the way people conduct business in the construction industry. The objective of the research is to figure out the impact factors that influence practitioners’ willingness to adopt IoT in Taiwan’s construction industry. The hypothesis was developed based on a comprehensive literature review and the concept of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTUAT). The UTUAT framework and hypotheses developed included 5 main hypotheses, 6 aspects and 33 stems. A pilot study aimed at experienced practitioners in the industry was carried out before the full-scale survey to adjust the stems. The adjusted questionnaire including 31 stems belonging to 7 aspects was then distributed to practitioners. A total of 282 valid questionnaires distributed were collected and 6 types of analysis (descriptive statistics, reliability, validity, t-test, one-way of variance, and structural equation modelling). The findings including (1) anticipated benefits significantly affect the users’ willingness to adopt IoT; (2) anticipated efforts significantly affect the users’ willingness to adopt IoT; (3) societal expectations significantly affect the users’ willingness to adopt IoT.

India is a country that depends on agriculture, where about half the population relies heavily on agriculture for their livelihood. However, most of the practices undertaken in the agricultural process are not for profit and yield favorable. It should upgrade with current technologies to boost seed quality, check soil infertility, check the water level, environmental changes, and market price prediction, and achieve in agriculture sensitivity of faults and background understanding. The advancement in technology and developments is seen as a significant aspect in their financial development and agricultural production growth. The Internet of Things (IoT), Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), and data analytics accomplish these upgrades. These technologies help in providing solutions to agricultural issues such as resource optimization, agricultural land monitoring, and decision-making support, awareness of the crop, land, weather, and market conditions for farmers. Smart agriculture is based on data from sensors, data from cloud platform storage and data from databases, all three concepts need to be implemented. The data are collected from different sensors and stored in a cloud-based back end support, which is then analyzed using proper analytics techniques, and then the relevant information is transferred to a user interface, which naturally supported the decision to conclude. The IoT applications mainly use sensors to monitor the situation, which collects a large size of data every time, so in the case of the Internet of Things (IoT) application, sensors contribute more. Data analytics requires data storage, data aggregation, data processing and data extraction. To retrieve data and information from database, we must use data mining techniques. It acts a significant position in the selection-making process on several agricultural issues. The eventual objective of data mining is to acquire information form data transform it for some advanced use into a unique human-comprehensible format. Big data's role in Agriculture affords prospect to increase the farmers' economic gain by undergoing a digital revolution in this aspect that we examine with precision. This paper includes reviewing a summary of some of the conference papers, journals, and books that have been going in favor of smart agriculture. The type of data required for smart farming system are analyzed and the architecture and schematic diagram of a proposed intelligent farming system are included. It also involves implementing different components of the smart farming system and integrating IoT and data analytics in the smart farming system. Based on the review, research gap, research agendas to carry out further research are identified.

2267 Acceptance of IoT Learning Among University Students at Pakistan Humaiz Shaikh1, Zulfikar Ahmed Maher2, Ali Raza3, Muhammad Yaqoob Koondhar4, Saajid Hussain5, Asadullah Shah6 1,6Kulliyyah of Information and Communication Technology, International Islamic University Malaysia, Malaysia, [email protected], [email protected] 2,4Information Technology Centre, Sindh Agriculture University Tandojam, Pakistan, [email protected], [email protected] 3,5Department of Information Technology, University of Sufism and Modern Sciences, Pakistan, [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT The Internet of Things abbreviated as an IoT is considered the most recent innovative and fastest-developing field that is to be applied in all aspects of life, in particular higher education. It has sparked interest as well as challenges among academics; the current research will concentrate on acceptance and adoption of IoT in the higher educational institutions of Pakistan. IoT supports educators in environment of learning and can have an impact on how we interact, connect, and work. In this study, we will look at two different aspects. The first one is how to teach students, and secondly how IoT can be used in educational institutions to enhance learning. This study looks at the factors that affect acceptance of IoT and use in an academic setting in Pakistan's higher education institutions. The current research establishes foundation for a comprehensive framework based on trusted technology and social psychology models, such as the Use of Technology 2 and Unified Theory of Acceptance (UTAUT2). The method proposed in this study is network analysis method to observe users' actions in relation to several IoT applications in higher education. An in-depth analysis and consideration of key deliverables which have a major impact on the Internet of Things (IoT) adoption in Pakistani educational institutions of higher level, revealed that only a few applications are heavily used in comparison to all other applications. This research lays the groundwork for developed countries to grow adoption and IoT technologies use in higher education, which will support both students and faculty.
