Latency Issues in Internet of Things: A Review of Literature and Solution

Abstract

© 2020, World Academy of Research in Science and Engineering. All rights reserved. Currently the issues of latency in resource discovery is still being analyzed and verified. This paper offers a comparison of studies and solutions on the latency issues of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the resources discovery. The purpose is to review resources discovery in terms of how latency could be minimize or remove properly with different IoT solution. We compared and reviewed all latency related literature and solution of the IoT, categorizing all 32 research papers and related commercial results in two different comparison tables. Through this, we are able to provide a general view of the categories of latency, main objectives of the research, techniques, finding and solutions. It has also revealed any trends, gaps and opportunities for how the current IoT issues should be tackled when engaging with the IoT latency problems. Finally we hope this review can provides insight result for every IoT latency sources, suggesting suitable and relevance approaches that can be used to ensure a stable IoT resources discovery in future.
