BUILDING AN ARCHITECTURE

1. When creating a model for the reference architecture,

2. one needs to establish overall objectives for the

architecture as well as design principles that come
from understanding some of the desired major
features of the resulting system solution.

3. Problem to solution

4. The problem domain establishes the foundation for

the subsequent solutions.

DESIGN PRINCIPLES
Main design principles and needed capabilities (design
objective and principles) main desired characteristics of an
M2M or IoT solution

The overall design objective of IoT architecture shall be to

target a horizontal system of real-world services that are
open, service-oriented, secure, and offer trust.

DESIGN PRINCIPLES
1. Design for reuse of deployed IoT resources across application
domains.
2. Design for a set of support services that provide open service-
oriented capabilities and can be used for application
development and execution.

• To access iot resources

• How to publish and discover resources,
• Tools for modeling contextual information

DESIGN PRINCIPLES
4. Design for ensuring trust, security, and privacy.

Reliability, availability of services, security and privacy

5. Design for scalability, performance, and effectiveness.

• Scalability aspects: large number of devices and amounts of data

produced
• Performance: Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA)

6. Design for evolvability, heterogeneity, and simplicity of integration.

7. Design for simplicity of management.
8. Design for different service delivery models (CLOUD SERVICES)

for instance, connected vehicles, and Software as a Service (SaaS) as a

delivery model

An IoT architecture outline

we use IoT as a collective term to include both M2M and IoT.

An IoT architecture outline

Asset Layer. This layer is, strictly speaking, not providing any
functionality within a target solution, but represents the raison d’eˆtre
reason or justification for existence for any IoT application

The Resource Layer provides the main functional capabilities of

sensing, actuation, and embedded identities. Sensors and actuators
in various devices that may be smartphones or Wireless Sensor
Actuator Networks (WSANs), M2M devices like smart meters.

The purpose of the Communication Layer is to provide the means

for connectivity between the resources on one end and the different
computing infrastructures that host and execute service support logic
and application logic on the other end. Different types of networks
realize the connectivity, and it is customary to differentiate between
the notion of a Local Area Network (LAN) and a Wide Area Network
(WAN). <SELO:

An IoT architecture outline

IoT applications benefit from simplification by relying on support
services that perform common and routine tasks. These support
services are provided by the Service Support Layer and are typically
executing in data centers or server farms inside organizations or in a
cloud environment.

Where the Resource, Communication, and Service Support layers

have concrete realizations in terms of devices and tags, networks and
network nodes, and computer servers,

the Data and Information Layer provided set of functions that

capture knowledge and provide advanced control logic support.
Key concepts here include data and information models and
knowledge representation in general, and the focus is on the
organization of information.

include data, information, domain-specific

The Application Layer in turn provides the specific IoT applications:
Smart Grid, vehicle tracking, building automation, or participatory
sensing (PS)

The final layer in our architecture outline is the Business Layer,

which focuses on supporting the core business or operations of any
enterprise, organization, or individual that is interested in IoT
applications.
Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Enterprise Resource
Planning (ERP), or other Business Support Systems (BSS).

In addition to the functional layers, three functional groups cross the

different layers, namely Management, Security, and IoT Data and
Services.

An IoT architecture outline

Management, related to system solution related to its operation,
maintenance, administration, and provisioning.

This includes management of devices, communications networks, and

the general Information Technology (IT) infrastructure as well as
configuration and provisioning data, performance of services
delivered, etc.

Security is about protection of the system, its information and

services, from external threats or any other harm.

Security measures are usually required across all layers, for instance,
providing communication security and information security.

An IoT architecture outline

Data and Service processing can,

Basic event filtering and simpler aggregation,

such as data averaging, can take place in individual sensor nodes in
WSANs, contextual metadata such as location and temporal
information can be added to sensor readings, and further aggregation
can take place higher up in the network topology.

More advanced processing is, for instance, data mining and data
analytics that can be done in near real-time.

This functional group thus represents the vertical flow of data into
knowledge,

Connected World With IOT

We live in a
connected world, not
only in a social
context, but also in a
data context. We live
in a sea of connected
devices which
communicate and
share information
about and with us.
