CLOUD COMPUTING AND INTERNET OF THINGS FOR SMART CITY DEPLOYMENTS
Journal Title: Challenges of the Knowledge Society - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 0
Abstract
Cloud Computing represents the new method of delivering hardware and software resources to the users, Internet of Things (IoT) is currently one of the most popular ICT paradigms. Both concepts can have a major impact on how we build smart or/and smarter cities. Cloud computing represents the delivery of hardware and software resources on-demand over the Internet as a Service. At the same time, the IoT concept envisions a new generation of devices (sensors, both virtual and physical) that are connected to the Internet and provide different services for value-added applications. In this paper we present our view on how to deploy Cloud computing and IoT for smart or/and smarter cities. We demonstrate that data gathered from heterogeneous and distributed IoT devices can be automatically managed, handled and reused with decentralized cloud services.
