This book serves as a showcase of the breadth of Internet of Things (IoT) research conducted in recent years for people who, while not experts in the field, do have prior knowledge of the IoT. The book also serves curious, non-technical readers, enabling them to understand necessary concepts and terminologies associated with the IoT.

The Internet of Things (IoT) has emerged as a popular area of research and has piqued the interest of academics and scholars worldwide. As such, many works have been done on IoT in a variety of application areas.

The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the process of connecting everyday physical objects to the internet, from common household objects (lighting, appliances, etc.) to healthcare assets (such as medical devices), as well as wearables, smart devices and even smart cities. These IoT-connected physical objects are visible within the created network itself, allowing them to be consulted and/or acted upon. The great advantage of the IoT, which leads to its enormous importance today, centres on the ease of connecting new objects to this network. The interest in this technology is being increased year by year. A few years ago, in order to connect a device to the network, it was necessary to deploy a multi-layered infrastructure to access its information. Nowadays, however, there are open-access projects that present a free and extensive network where end users can directly connect their objects (only needing a connection modem in the object itself). With multiple connected objects over a large area, there is great potential for projects that focus on the population’s well-being when applied to smart cities. This opens up endless possibilities, but not without challenges and concerns. Many of the latter focus on the devices and network’s security and devices and how a malicious user can alter the information or undermine privacy. All these issues and possibilities are addressed in the various chapters of this book, which attempt to cover all areas of the IoT.
