A dress with a RAIN RFID chip embedded in the tag, or an IV pole that sends location data to
monitoring software, or a printer cartridge that triggers an email when your ink is running low:
all of these can be considered a ‘thing’ in the Internet of Things. All of these are objects
sharing data within an ecosystem, allowing a user to build on that data to draw conclusions
and make decisions based on that information
3. Give the evolutionary phases of IoT.
This protocol is also used to expand the flexibility & scope of the automation that can be
executed
1 Define the term Middle ware.
2 Middleware is software that different applications use to communicate with each other. It
provides functionality to connect applications intelligently and efficiently so that you can
innovate faster. Middleware acts as a bridge between diverse technologies, tools, and databases
so that you can integrate them seamlessly into a single system. The single system then provides
a unified service to its users.
For example, a web server is middleware that connects websites to the backend database. When
you submit a form on a website, your computer sends the request in XML or JSON to the web
server. Then, the web server runs the business logic based on the request, retrieves information
from databases, or communicates to other micro services using different protocols.
1 Mention about the salient features of M2M protocol.
3 The main components of an M2M system include sensors, RFID, a Wi-Fi or cellular
communications link, and autonomic computing software programmed to help a network device
interpret data and make decisions. These M2M applications translate the data, which can trigger
preprogrammed, automated actions.
An M2M platform—or machine-to-machine platform—is a software solution that unifies and
simplifies the management of M2M devices and applications.
1 How does the data acquisition works in SCADA?
4 Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) is a system that aims to monitor and
control field devices at your remote sites. SCADA systems are critical as it helps maintain
efficiency by collecting and processing real-time data.
The main goal of this supervisory system is to monitor and control equipment in the industrial
processes for companies in the public and private sectors. As a matter of fact, in today's world,
there are SCADA systems almost everywhere. This includes industrial plants, manufacturing,
transportation, oil and gas, power distribution, water control and etc.
1 Where IEEE. 802.15.4 can be deployed?
5 Networks based on IEEE 802.15.4 can be developed in a star, peer-to-peer, or mesh
topology. Mesh networks connect a large number of nodes. This enables nodes that would
otherwise be out of range to interact with each other to use intermediate nodes to relay data.
IEEE 802.15.4 Applications:
Wireless sensor networks in the industry
Building and home automation
Remote controllers and interacting toys
Automotive networks
1 Analyze the use of ZigBee.
6 ZigBee is a Personal Area Network task group with low rate task group 4. It is a technology
of home networking. ZigBee is a technological standard created for controlling and sensing
the network. As we know that ZigBee is the Personal Area Network of task group 4 so it is
based on IEEE 802.15.4 and is created by Zigbee Alliance.
ZigBee is an open, global, packet-based protocol designed to provide an easy-to-use
architecture for secure, reliable, low power wireless networks. Flow or process control
equipment can be place anywhere and still communicate with the rest of the system. It can
also be moved, since the network doesn’t care about the physical location of a sensor, pump
or valve.
General Characteristics of Zigbee Standard:
Low Power Consumption
Low Data Rate (20- 250 kbps)
Short-Range (75-100 meters)
Network Join Time (~ 30 msec)
Support Small and Large Networks (up to 65000 devices (Theory); 240 devices
(Practically))
Modbus is a serial communication protocol developed by Modicon in 1979 for use with PLCs.
Modbus TCP/IP uses TCP/IP and Ethernet to move Modbus message structure data between
compatible devices. That is, Modbus TCP/IP a physical network (Ethernet), a standard method
of representing data with a network standard (TCP/IP). A Modbus TCP/IP message is simply a
Modbus communication encapsulated in an Ethernet TCP/IP packet.
2 What do you mean by functional model of IOT?
0
The functional model contains:
Two transversal functionality groups (FG): "Management" and "Security"; and
Seven longitudinal functionality groups:
"Application", "Virtual Entity", "IoT Service", "IoT Business Process Management", "Service
Organization", "Communication" and "Device"
