Discover how the Internet of Things will change the information and communication technology industry in the next decade 

The Intelligent Internet of Things explores a unique type of Internet of Things (IoT) architecture, for example, the Web of Things (WoT) with its open character that breaks the barriers among various IoT vertical applications. The authors—noted experts on the topic—examine and compare key technologies from physical to platform level, especially the Narrow Band Internet of Things (NB-IoT) technology. They discuss applications with different data transmission requirements that are typical to IoT. The text also describes the requirements of WoT applications on 5G and includes detailed information on WoT technologies.  

The Intelligent Internet of Things examines three typical WoT applications: the monitoring application of south-to-north water diversion projects; smart driving applications; and network optimization applications. In addition, the text explores testing and authentication of IoT key technologies, with the required equipment, platform, and outdoor environment development. This important book:

• Provides information on what IoT/WoT is, when to use it, how to provide IoT services with certain technologies, and more 
• Discusses restful architecture, main protocols (ZigBee, 6lowpan, CoAP, HTML5)
• Explores key technologies on different layers (sensing, gathering, application) 
• Examines how IoT will change the information and communication technology industry

Written for professionals working in IoT development, management and big data analytics, Intelligent Internet of Things offers an overview of IoT architecture, key technology, current applications and future development of the technology.

DISCOVER HOW THE INTELLIGENT INTERNET OF THINGS WILL CHANGE THE INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY INDUSTRY IN THE NEXT DECADE

In the digital world, most data and Internet of Things (IoT) services need to be efficiently processed and executed by intelligent algorithms using local or regional computing resources, thus greatly saving and reducing communication bandwidth, end-to-end service delay, long-distance data transmissions, and potential privacy breaches. This book proposes a pyramid model, where data, computing and algorithm jointly constitute the triangular base to support a variety of user-centric intelligent IoT services at the spire by using different kinds of smart terminals or devices.

This book provides a state-of-the-art review of intelligent IoT technologies and applications, discusses the key challenges and opportunities facing the digital world, and answers the following five critical questions:

• What is the most feasible network architecture to effectively provide sufficient resources anywhere anytime for intelligent IoT application scenarios?
• How do we efficiently discover, allocate and manage computing, communication and caching resources in heterogeneous networks across multiple domains and operators?
• How do we agilely achieve adaptive service orchestration and reliable service provisioning to meet dynamic user requirements in real time?
• How do we effectively protect data privacy in IoT applications, where IoT devices and edge/fog computing nodes only have limited resources and capabilities?
• How do we continuously guarantee and maintain the synchronization and reliability of wide-area IoT systems and applications?

Written for professionals working in 5G/IoT technology development, service management and big data analytics, this book offers an overview of intelligent IoT service architecture, key technologies, important applications and future technological trends.
