Internet of Things

• Internet of Things

• Mobile devices

• P2P

• Clouds

• Supercomputers

• MANETs / VANETs / Opnets / DTNs /…

• SOA

• … But a single user!

• The frontier: integrating separate digital ecosystems into a single user-centric digital ecosystem

Mobility / Ubiquity of the user

• Mobility / Ubiquity of the user

• Collaborative distributed systems (clouds, grids, P2P…)

• Things, smart objects and the Internet of Things

• Heavy data and processing loads

• Need for semantics

• Open environments

• User-centricity, context-awareness, and content adaptation

• Security and privacy

Ubiquity is provided by mobile devices and mobile networks

• Ubiquity is provided by mobile devices and mobile networks

• Grids and clouds bring their infrastructure and their resources

• Things bring the context

• Recipe: mix all these ingredients

• Approaches to mixing

• standards
• collaboration protocols
• services and SOA
• autonomous organization
• focus on user intention!

• Examples of candidate applications

• Personal healthcare: sensors at home + medical records at a health center + smart devices (phone, TV…) + a private cloud to process the data
• Crisis management: sensors + GIS + (gridified - cloudified) DBs/data stores + computing grid/cloud + mobile devices
• Patient care: a physician (at his office, during visits, at the hospital) just needs the information, wherever she/he is, wherever the requested information is stored, whoever the patient is => local health network grid + distributed patient data + (inter-)national health grids interconnection (with secure access) + data adaptation (e.g. PDA, laptop) + medical sensors + adaptive HMI…
