Abstract

Although Internet of Things (IoT) has got lots of attention especially during recent years, its origin gets back to older times. IoT is all about connecting different entities in systems, equipped with sensors and actuators by means of internet technology. It has various applications in a wide range of industries from healthcare and agriculture to automotive, manufacturing and supply chain. Looking at the huge amount of money, invested by all big players in different industries to provide the necessary technological infrastructure, shows the strategic importance of implementing this game-changing technology. IoT is not a future paradigm; it is all about the present. It has changed the business models, caused new businesses to be introduced and has revolutionized the way that industries perform. This article reviews Internet of Things, its different applications in several industries as well as its opportunities and challenges.
