Description
The Internet of Things, with its acronym (IoT), is a term that has come to stay since 1999, when it was coined by Kevin Ashton. Prior to this new paradigm, only computing devices such as desktops, laptops, tablets, or smartphones could be connected to the internet and exchange information. With the advent of the IoT, the things that make up our physical world have the possibility of being connected to the internet and exchanging information. In this configuration, humans can remotely monitor and control things from anywhere in the world. Consequently, this research article aims at throwing more light on the most essential concepts hovering around the Internet of Things technology. Therefore, this research article will consist of an introduction to IoT; the concept and evolution of IoT; the architecture of IoT comprising the sensing or perception layer, the network layer, the middleware layer, and the application layer; and the research paper will be finalized with some discussions and a conclusion.
