Nawel Kortas . IoT and the Autonomy of Communicating Objects Lead toward an Adapted Future. International Journal of Computer Applications. 185, 4 ( Apr 2023), 18-24. DOI=10.5120/ijca2023922692
Communicating objects have today become a truth and there is no doubt that they operate a prominent place in our lives. This bridge between the physical world and the virtual world corresponds to the natural evolution of the Internet. The Internet of Things (IoT) describes the network of physical terminals, "objects", which integrate sensors, software and other technologies in order to connect to other terminals and systems on the Internet and to exchange data with them. These terminals can range from simple domestic appliances to highly complex industrial tools. In this review, we consult on the representation of communicating objects, their autonomy, their purpose and their limits. We proceed to an overview of the communicating applications of the Internet of Things (IoT). We also explain how and for which applications, wireless sensors and other connected objects can take advantage of energy harvesting devices in order to gain autonomy.
