Interoperability in Smart Living Network—A Survey

Abstract

Embedded systems or embedded devices are the basic hardware needed for Internet of things (IoT). The “Internet” and “Things” are merged together to make them work as a powerful technology called the Internet of Things (IoT). The IoT is the bombardment of the real-world objects into Internet-based things that can exchange massive amount of data with minimal human interventions. However, the security and privacy concepts of infrastructural engineering are highly critical. Smart IoT projects with smart devices are worldwide known. Smart living is a residence filled with technology that processes the information expected to respond to the needs of the occupants. It promotes the locator comfort, convenience, and security through the technology. Smart devices with the IoT services convert the raw data, read from the home sensors and the actuators, and respond with operational commands to control the home network or home appliances technology from anywhere with the help of Internet. Devices such as smartphones, tablets, and personal computers are used to communicate with these technologies. The home technology highly depends on the interoperability among the communication system architecture to achieve security. In this paper, a survey is done on how the interoperability is built with the efficient use of power energy in the existing smart living.
