Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) has various fields of application including health care, resource management, asset tracking, etc. Depending on the use case, various technologies like RFID, Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) or Smart Objects can be used. With each of these comes a specific vision of what the IoT and connected objects are and-to our knowledge-there is no global picture of the IoT. The issue with this approach is that specific problems have been addressed before global ones: what if something has been missed? We propose a definition and taxonomy for connected objects and the IoT.
