*Theme***
The technology of Internet of Things (IoT) enables smart interconnection among devices through the Internet. Nowadays, IoT devices are used in manufacturing, logistics, transportation, retail, healthcare, agriculture, automotive and industrial markets. Presently, the IoT is flourishing in home electronics, from entertainment to smart home control. Electronics manufacturers have been connecting devices and appliances for years – now massive availability of massive availability of in-home Wi-Fi, 5G wireless network and connectivity points are creating an environment that enables devices to constantly be connected into the cloud to send operational, warranty and service data.
For the networking among businesses and/or consumers*, *IoT promises new business applications that attach with physical objects like machines and devices. In recent years, the advancements in internet protocols, smart sensors, communication technologies and embedded systems are used to increase the business profits, manufacturing, and quality of service.
