    Study Notes

    Internet-of-Things (IoT) Systems

    • The book covers architectures, algorithms, and methodologies of IoT systems
    • The authors are Dimitrios Serpanos and Marilyn Wolf
    • The book is published by Springer
    • It describes the evolution of the Internet to create a worldwide infrastructure interconnecting machines and humans
    • The first wave of IoT exploitation focused on digitizing financial transactions, shopping, news, and information sharing
    • The advances in communication technology have enabled the development of sophisticated interconnections among machines, contrasting operational technology (OT) with information technology (IT)
    • IoT systems emphasize technologies like embedded processors, memory, sensors, actuators, cloud servers, and network systems
    • These systems often use event-driven or aperiodic sampling rather than time-series data in traditional signal processing.
    • Event-driven systems are becoming a key method of structuring IoT systems
    • IoT devices may be relatively simple due to the need for low power operation
    • Wireless network connections simplify installation and operation but present challenges such as higher power consumption for radio communication
    • Security and privacy are becoming essential for all types of computer systems, including IoT systems
    • IoT systems are often less secure than typical computer systems because of a lack of security features in hardware, poorly developed software, default passwords, and other design errors
    • Insecure IoT devices create problems for the overall system security
    • IoT devices are often used in critical infrastructure (such as industrial controls) and demand security and safety
    • IoT requires efficient communication in a machine-to-machine (M2M) environment and appropriate protocols to address constraints
    • Many IoT systems require global time synchronization, and the Network Time Protocol (RFC 1305) is commonly used for this reason
    • Specific applications include industrial systems, vehicles, medical systems, and smart cities
    • The book covers architectures, applications, IoT devices, and event-driven system analysis
    • The book discusses various protocols like IoT-oriented protocols, Zigbee, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), LoRa, MQTT, and REST
    • The book identifies several challenges in developing and deploying robust and secure IoT systems, including safety, security, and interoperability
    • Chapters cover industrial IoT (IIoT) and related issues in the context of the larger IoT ecosystem

    Topic Subtitle

    • There has been a 900-2.3 trillion USD economic impact projected for IoT applications by 2025
    • IoT applications are growing to many sectors like agriculture, health, security and safety, smart cities.
    • There is growing need for integrated strategies and technologies in IIoT, such as smart factories and the industry 4.0 initiative
    • It is important to identify the differences between IoT and IIoT.
    • IIoT demands continuous operation and safety, and employs operational technology (OT), contrasted with IoT's information technology (IT).

    Topic Subtitle

    • This chapter focuses on different ways of modelling interaction between IoT systems and their environments, examining three methods
    • A simplest model treats both users and devices as timed finite state machines and generates an event population trace
    • A more complex model uses a continuous time Markov decision process (CTMDP), including timing of state transitions modeled with a poisson process
