Internet of Things is a paradigm referring to the pervasive presence of networked
things and objects that are able to interact and cooperate with each other.
This paradigm also suggests that in the future these objects also produce
large amounts of data to the internet and other network applications. Predictions
say that the amount of data produced by things proceeds human produced
data in the near future. These visions are grounded in the assumption
that the advances in microelectronics, communications and information technology
added with diminishing prices of these technologies will bring networking
and cooperation capabilities to more and more every day things.
This thesis reviews what the Internet of Things means as a phenomenon, how
standards form in this field and challenges for Internet of Things standardization.
Since IoT is a global phenomenon standardization plays a key role in the
development of IoT. For this reason this thesis focuses to the standardization
activities and not only to introducing technologies associated with IoT. First
two chapters deal with the phenomenon and technology. But chapters three
and four focus on challenges on IoT standardization and some of the IoT standards
that already exist.
