Overview

Key facts

The concept of an ‘Internet of Things’ (which is often discussed within the framework of ‘Pervasive’ and ‘Ubiquitous’ forms of computing) relates to the development, deployment and operation of a broad spectrum of Internet connected devices which are able to communicate with applications, with each other, and with the environment.The pervasive use of interconnected and intercommunicating sensory technologies offers great opportunities for business, for governmental agencies and for the individual. However, there are a number of ongoing challenges which include reliability, data handling, security and impact on personal privacy.
