M3 Spaces in Internet of Things Environments

As we showed in the previous chapter, the M3 architecture supports the Smart Spaces concept with localization and interconnection of available resources, their semantics, and information-driven programming over this dynamic knowledge corpus (in the form of a semantic network). In this chapter, we consider the settings of IoT environments. The settings play an essential practical role, influencing the way how an M3 space and its applications are deployed on the existing networked equipment of a given IoT environment. Basically, IoT refers to the connection of physical objects. IoT technologies make all the devices of a spatial-limited physical computing environment interconnected as well as connected to the Internet. This ability leads to the consideration of notion of localized IoT-environments which now appears in many places of everyday life. Software agents running on devices turn the latter into “smart objects” that are visible in our daily lives as real participating entities. As a result, the next generation of software applications (smart applications) can be deployed in localized IoT-environments in the form of M3 spaces.

Technologies of the Internet of Things (IoT) and of smart spaces support creating smart museums based on digitized infrastructures and information systems already deployed in modern museums. Cultural heritage knowledge in such a museum is used by interested visitors as well as by personnel. This work continues the authors' research on the smart museum concept and its case study of everyday life history in the History Museum of Petrozavodsk State University (PetrSU). The authors develop an ontological model for the needs of studying the everyday life history. The ontology supports integrating descriptions of collected exhibits into a semantic network, where the links reflect meaningful relations between exhibits and other historical objects. They apply the wiki technology within the smart spaces-based architecture of a smart museum. The wiki implements an ontology-enabled system that experts use to extract and represent knowledge hidden in the museum collection. The authors discuss possible semantic algorithms for data mining in the museum semantic network.

This article focuses on the analysis of promising technologies for long-range traffic transmission for the implementation of the Internet of Things. The result of the review of technical features of technologies, their advantages and disadvantages is given. A comparative analysis was performed. An analysis is made that in the future heterogeneous structures based on the integration of many used radio technologies will play a crucial role in the implementation of fifth generation networks and systems. The Internet of Things (IoT) is heavily affecting our daily lives in many domains, ranging from tiny wearable devices to large industrial systems. Consequently, a wide variety of IoT applications have been developed and deployed using different IoT frameworks. An IoT framework is a set of guiding rules, protocols, and standards which simplify the implementation of IoT applications. The success of these applications mainly depends on the ecosystem characteristics of the IoT framework, with the emphasis on the security mechanisms employed in it, where issues related to security and privacy are pivotal. In this paper, we survey the security of the main IoT frameworks, a total of 8 frameworks are considered. For each framework, we clarify the proposed architecture, the essentials of developing third-party smart apps, the compatible hardware, and the security features. Comparing security architectures shows that the same standards used for securing communications, whereas different methodologies followed for providing other security properties.

The Internet of Things continues to set the pace of many aspects of the scientific and technological development worldwide. Moreover, it is expected to do so, at least, for the next ten years, according to forecasts that predict trillions of devices connected to the Internet [1]. In addition to influencing different factors of people’s daily lives, this new vision of the world poses a series of challenges and opportunities that have an effect on general aspects of the economy and politics.


Road Safety is the most crucial aspect in this modern world as the reckless use of the developed technology i.e. vehicles, is leading to human loss. Safety concerns while driving is of utmost importance in our daily lives. It might lead to the loss of lives of even innocent people and loss of property. The evolution of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the continuing increase in the number of sensors connected to the Internet has led to development of various application in our day to day life. Thus, automation in road safety using IoT can help to reduction as well as prevention of accidents. Accuracy is important when it comes to road safety and one must always strive to achieve the highest accuracy, provided there is no trade off’ with inexcusable time. Most of the road accidents are caused due to drowsiness or drunk driving. This paper deals with the design and testing of drunk and sleep-deprived driver detection device. This paper presents a low-cost effective method for drowsiness detection and proposes a method to detect whether the driver is drunk or not. Finally, it lays off a way to communicate with emergency help services. It deals with the design and testing of drunk and drowsy driver detection device.

Analyzing the evolution of new generation peripherals can affirm that the next decade will be characterized by the exponential increase in the number of “objects” interconnected to the internet that will be more able to communicate with each other independently and will lead to the affirmation of the paradigm internet of things (IoT), which will revolutionize everyday life on a global level. This evolution will concern not only the business realities, interested in the development of applications and systems necessary to emerge and be competitive on the market but also the ordinary citizens who will be surrounded by interconnected objects able to facilitate their everyday life. This aspect implies particular attention to the implementation of solutions oriented to cyber security necessary to guarantee an efficient and effective level of protection against the threats coming from the “world” internet, known by the term cyber space.
