In the Institute of Tropical Geography (IGT), and in the rest of the centers that develop the Environmental Information System of the country, environmental measurements are not obtained in real-time. This is because the technology used to communicate this information, from the sensors that capture it to the center where it is processed, is obsolete. The objective of this work is to provide a solution to the problems raised above using Machine to Machine communication (M2M), as part of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology. To achieve the above, the M2M architecture defined by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute was revised and, based on it, the one that should be used to obtain environmental data in real-time was specified. Then, a geographical area with special characteristics was selected, located in a difficult-to-access pre-mountain zone on the outskirts of the Consolación del Sur municipality, in the Pinar del Río province of Cuba, where environmental factors of interest for the country are currently monitored using archaic methods. In the M2M area of this scenario, several alternatives were analyzed to obtain the data, which allowed selecting the most appropriate one, which is the one explained in this work

The internet of things is nothing but the interconnection of a number of systems or objects in which the internal circuit consists of a number of sensors and connectors. The main aim of the internet of things is to transfer information and to make an interaction between the systems. Through IoT, all the systems can be sensed and all the home appliances will be controlled remotely through a mobile device. It creates an integration of more and more networks in the future. The IoT is a very important emerging technology nowadays in which the main applications of IoT are smart grids, smart homes, etc. As the number of devices was increasing nowadays IoT plays a very significant role in present society. So, the challenges were increasing and there will be a machine to machine communication and also with the user. It reduces human efforts as it is machine-dependent. It acts according to the instructions given by the user.


Constrained devices are commonly used in the Internet of Things systems. Since these devices have limited communication and computation resources, communication protocols which are lightweight are needed. A lightweight protocol called Message Queue Telemetry Transport, which is a publish/subscribe messaging protocol, is utilized with the constrained devices. Hence, this paper is aimed at monitoring data by using machine-to-machine communication protocol with the help of an IoT device, Raspberry Pi.

AbstractAdvancements within the Internet of Things are leading to a pervasive integration of different domains including also building automation systems. As a result, device functionality becomes available to a wide range of applications and users outside of the building automation domain. In this context, Web services are identified as suitable solution for machine-to-machine communication. However, a major requirement to provide necessary interoperability is the consideration of underlying semantics. Thus, this work presents a universal framework for tag-based semantic modeling and seamless integration of building automation systems via Web service-based technologies. Using the example of the KNX Web services specification, the applicability of this approach is pointed out.

The case method can be classified as a type of experiential learning because students treat the problem in the case as if it were real and immediate. Until the Internet there was no practical way for cases to actually be real and immediate. The Internet makes possible instantaneous distribution of cases, and it makes possible their creation in real time. This article describes a recent attempt to use the Internet to bring business reality to business courses, and to facilitate communication among instructors, students, and the case company. It explores the challenges and difficulties involved in producing a new type of case study, and it assesses the feasibility of doing so on a regular basis. The goal of the author is to stimulate a dialog about how the Internet can be used to move forward all of our teaching methods, but especially the one that is prominent in schools of business: the case method.
