This book provides an overview of the current Internet of Things
(IoT) landscape, ranging from the research, innovation and
development priorities to enabling technologies in a global
context. A successful deployment of IoT technologies requires
integration on all layers, be it cognitive and semantic aspects,
middleware components, services, edge devices/machines and
infrastructures. It is intended to be a standalone book in a series
that covers the Internet of Things activities of the IERC -
Internet of Things European Research Cluster from research to
technological innovation, validation and deployment. The book
builds on the ideas put forward by the European Research Cluster
and the IoT European Platform Initiative (IoT-EPI) and presents
global views and state of the art results on the challenges facing
the research, innovation, development and deployment of IoT in the
next years. The IoT is bridging the physical world with virtual
world and requires sound information processing capabilities for
the "digital shadows" of these real things. The research and
innovation in nanoelectronics, semiconductor, sensors/actuators,
communication, analytics technologies, cyber-physical systems,
software, swarm intelligent and deep learning systems are essential
for the successful deployment of IoT applications. The emergence of
IoT platforms with multiple functionalities enables rapid
development and lower costs by offering standardised components
that can be shared across multiple solutions in many industry
verticals. The IoT applications will gradually move from vertical,
single purpose solutions to multi-purpose and collaborative
applications interacting across industry verticals, organisations
and people, being one of the essential paradigms of the digital
economy. Many of those applications still have to be identified and
involvement of end-users including the creative sector in this
innovation is crucial. The IoT applications and deployments as
integrated building blocks of the new digital economy are part of
the accompanying IoT policy framework to address issues of
horizontal nature and common interest (i.e. privacy, end-to-end
security, user acceptance, societal, ethical aspects and legal
issues) for providing trusted IoT solutions in a coordinated and
consolidated manner across the IoT activities and pilots. In this,
context IoT ecosystems offer solutions beyond a platform and solve
important technical challenges in the different verticals and
across verticals. These IoT technology ecosystems are instrumental
for the deployment of large pilots and can easily be connected to
or build upon the core IoT solutions for different applications in
order to expand the system of use and allow new and even
unanticipated IoT end uses. Technical topics discussed in the book
include: * Introduction* Digitising industry and IoT as key enabler
in the new era of Digital Economy* IoT Strategic Research and
Innovation Agenda* IoT in the digital industrial context: Digital
Single Market* Integration of heterogeneous systems and bridging
the virtual, digital and physical worlds* Federated IoT platforms
and interoperability* Evolution from intelligent devices to
connected systems of systems by adding new layers of cognitive
behaviour, artificial intelligence and user interfaces.* Innovation
through IoT ecosystems* Trust-based IoT end-to-end security,
privacy framework* User acceptance, societal, ethical aspects and
legal issues* Internet of Things Applications
