The Internet Of Things

The emergence of the internet of things in the smart homes has given rise to many services to meet the user's expectations. It is possible to control the temperature, the brightness, the sound system, and even the security of the house via a smartphone, at the request of the inhabitant or by scheduling it. This growing number of “things” must deal with material constraints such as home network infrastructure, but also applicative due to the number of proposed services. The heterogeneity of users' preferences often creates conflicts between them like turn on and off light or using a heater and an air conditioner in the same time. To manage these conflicts, the authors proposed a solution based on linked open data (LOD). The LOD allows defining the relation between the different services and things in the house and a better exploitation of the attributes of the inhabitant's profile and services. It consists to find inconsistency relation between the equipment using the antonym thesaurus.

Game Changer

In this era of explosive growth in technology, the internet of things (IoT) has become the game changer when we consider technologies like smart homes and cities, smart energy, security and surveillance, and healthcare. The numerous benefits provided by IoT have become attractive technologies for users and cybercriminals. Cybercriminals of today have the tools and the technology to deploy millions of sophisticated attacks. These attacks need to be investigated; this is where digital forensics comes into play. However, it is not easy to conduct a forensic investigation in IoT systems because of the heterogeneous nature of the IoT environment. Additionally, forensic investigators mostly rely on evidence from service providers, a situation that can lead to evidence contamination. To solve this problem, the authors proposed a blockchain-based IoT forensic model that prevents the admissibility of tampered logs into evidence.

Smart home is one of the most promising applications of the Internet of Things. Although there have been studies about this technology in recent years, the adoption rate of smart homes is still low. One of the largest barriers is technological fragmentation within the smart home ecosystem. Currently, there are many protocols used in a connected home, increasing the confusion of consumers when choosing a product for their house. One possible solution for this fragmentation is to make a gateway to handle the diverse protocols as a central hub in the home. However, this solution brings about another issue for manufacturers: compatibility. Because of the various smart devices on the market, supporting all possible devices in one gateway is also an enormous challenge. In this paper, we propose a software architecture for a gateway in a smart home system to solve the compatibility problem. By creating a mechanism to dynamically download and update a device profile from a server, the gateway can easily handle new devices. Moreover, the proposed gateway also supports unified control over heterogeneous networks. We implemented a prototype to prove the feasibility of the proposed gateway architecture and evaluated its performance from the viewpoint of message execution time over heterogeneous networks, as well as the latency for device profile downloads and updates, and the overhead needed for handling unknown commands.

The internet of Things (IOT) is always giving unprecedented answers for the customary issues looked by man.One of the real obstacles in city is we are spending huge expenses on street light.  To control the street lights based on detection of sunlight by implemented with smart embedded system. The paper is mainly utilized for smart and climate adaptive lighting in street lights. The street lights are automatically ON during the evening time and automatically OFF during day time.The street light can be accessed to turn ON or OFF at anyplace and anytime through web.In addition to that On top of the street light we are placing camera to track the activities performed on the street and where the recordings are stored in a server. Furthermore a panic button is placed on the pole, If there is any emergency situations like harassment, robbery there is a panic button is available at the reachable height any person can press it if he is in danger. If people are unable to press the panic button, they should use voice recognition which is connected to panic button, when it recognises some commands like help, it automatically press the panic button. Whenever the panic button is pressed, the footages at that time recorded by the camera is sent straightforwardly to the cloud account. The near specific police headquarters can have access of the account by which they can see the incident’s spot. Every region's street lights are associated with the specific area's police headquarters and cloud account can be accessible by each of them. Here GSMTechnology is eliminated completely.Safety and energy consumptions can be ensured by this idea.

The future of Internet of Things (IoT) is already upon us. The Internet of Things (IoT) is the ability to provide everyday devices with a way of identification and another way for communication with each other. The spectrum of IoT application domains is very large including smart homes, smart cities, wearables, e-health, etc. Consequently, tens and even hundreds of billions of devices will be connected. Such devices will have smart capabilities to collect, analyze and even make decisions without any human interaction. Security is a supreme requirement in such circumstances, and in particular authentication is of high interest given the damage that could happen from a malicious unauthenticated device in an IoT system. While enjoying the convenience and efficiency that IoT brings to us, new threats from IoT also have emerged. There are increasing research works to ease these threats, but many problems remain open. To better understand the essential reasons of new threats and the challenges in current research, this survey first proposes the concept of “IoT features”. Then, the security and privacy effects of eight IoT new features were discussed including the threats they cause, existing solutions and challenges yet to be solved.

This article reviewed the state-of-the-art applications of the Internet of things (IoT) technology applied in homes for making them smart, automated, and digitalized in many respects. The literature presented various applications, systems, or methods and reported the results of using IoT, artificial intelligence (AI), and geographic information system (GIS) at homes. Because the technology has been advancing and users are experiencing IoT boom for smart built environment applications, especially smart homes and smart energy systems, it is necessary to identify the gaps, relation between current methods, and provide a coherent instruction of the whole process of designing smart homes. This article reviewed relevant papers within databases, such as Scopus, including journal papers published in between 2010 and 2019. These papers were then analyzed in terms of bibliography and content to identify more related systems, practices, and contributors. A designed systematic review method was used to identify and select the relevant papers, which were then reviewed for their content by means of coding. The presented systematic critical review focuses on systems developed and technologies used for smart homes. The main question is ”What has been learned from a decade trailing smart system developments in different fields?”. We found that there is a considerable gap in the integration of AI and IoT and the use of geospatial data in smart home development. It was also found that there is a large gap in the literature in terms of limited integrated systems for energy efficiency and aged care system development. This article would enable researchers and professionals to fully understand those gaps in IoT-based environments and suggest ways to fill the gaps while designing smart homes where users have a higher level of thermal comfort while saving energy and greenhouse gas emissions. This article also raised new challenging questions on how IoT and existing developed systems could be improved and be further developed to address other issues of energy saving, which can steer the research direction to full smart systems. This would significantly help to design fully automated assistive systems to improve quality of life and decrease energy consumption.
