Title: Internet of
Things: Enabling Cross-domain Convergence and Innovation
Internet of Things (IoT) is a
facilitating technology that helps bridge legacy, present, and
futuristic technologies towardsachievinga universal, uniform,
faster, and deeper technological penetration in the modern day
society. Besides bridging technological divides, IoT has
resulted in the development of innovative schemes, solutions,
and even technologies, which fill-in the gaps arising as a
result of the convergence of numerous technologies and devices
into a unified platform. From a networking perspective,
innovation and developments in hardware, and algorithmic
schemes for addressing, device management, topology
management, energy optimization, and forecasting in various
cross-domain areas have resulted in the huge popularity of
IoT-based systems. Domains such as healthcare, agriculture,
home automation, transportation, logistics, surveillance,
defence, traffic management, power distribution, and others
are some of the biggest consumers of IoT and IoT-based
services.As a result of the need for convergence of a wide
variety of information towards a common goal, technologies
such as Cloud Computing, Sensor Cloud, Big Data, Software
Defined Radios and Networks, Machine Learning, Deep Learning,
Social Sensing, and Smartphone Computing have witnessed major
developments in the recent few years.This talk will have
special focus on showcasing some of the research works done by
the Speaker on IoT at the SWAN Lab
(http://cse.iitkgp.ac.in/~smisra/swan/) of IIT Kharagpur.
