This book provides an overview of the next generation Internet of
Things (IoT), ranging from research, innovation, development
priorities, to enabling technologies in a global context. It is
intended as a standalone in a series covering the activities of the
Internet of Things European Research Cluster (IERC), including
research, technological innovation, validation, and deployment. The
text builds on the ideas put forward by the European Research
Cluster, the IoT European Platform Initiative (IoT-EPI), the IoT
European Large-Scale Pilots Programme and the IoT European Security
and Privacy Projects, presenting global views and state-of-the-art
results regarding the next generation of IoT research, innovation,
development, and deployment. The IoT and Industrial Internet of
Things (IIoT) are evolving towards the next generation of Tactile
IoT/IIoT, bringing together hyperconnectivity (5G and beyond), edge
computing, Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLTs), virtual /
augmented reality (VR/AR), and Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Following the wider adoption of consumer IoT, the next generation
of IoT/IIoT innovation for business is driven by industries,
addressing interoperability issues and providing new end-to-end
security solutions to face continuous treats. The advances of AI
technology in vision, speech recognition, natural language
processing and dialog are enabling the development of end-to-end
intelligent systems encapsulating multiple technologies, delivering
services in real-time using limited resources. These developments
are focusing on designing and delivering embedded and hierarchical
AI solutions in IoT/IIoT, edge computing, using distributed
architectures, DLTs platforms and distributed end-to-end security,
which provide real-time decisions using less data and computational
resources, while accessing each type of resource in a way that
enhances the accuracy and performance of models in the various
IoT/IIoT applications. The convergence and combination of IoT, AI
and other related technologies to derive insights, decisions and
revenue from sensor data provide new business models and sources of
monetization. Meanwhile, scalable, IoT-enabled applications have
become part of larger business objectives, enabling digital
transformation with a focus on new services and applications.
Serving the next generation of Tactile IoT/IIoT real-time use cases
over 5G and Network Slicing technology is essential for consumer
and industrial applications and support reducing operational costs,
increasing efficiency and leveraging additional capabilities for
real-time autonomous systems. New IoT distributed architectures,
combined with system-level architectures for edge/fog computing,
are evolving IoT platforms, including AI and DLTs, with embedded
intelligence into the hyperconnectivity infrastructure. The next
generation of IoT/IIoT technologies are highly transformational,
enabling innovation at scale, and autonomous decision-making in
various application domains such as healthcare, smart homes, smart
buildings, smart cities, energy, agriculture, transportation and
autonomous vehicles, the military, logistics and supply chain,
retail and wholesale, manufacturing, mining and oil and gas.
