Internet of Things: A Hardware Development Perspective

The book deals with the conceptual and practical knowledge of the latest tools and methodologies of hardware development for Internet of Things (IoT) and variety of real-world challenges. The topics cover the state-of-the-art and future perspectives of IoT technologies, where industry experts, researchers, and academics had shared ideas and experiences surrounding frontier technologies, breakthrough, and innovative solutions and applications. Several aspects of various hardware technologies, methodologies, and communication protocol such as formal design flow for IoT hardware, design approaches for IoT hardware, IoT solution reference architectures and Instances, simulation, modelling and programming framework, hardware basics of sensors for IoT, configurable processor and technology for IoT and real-life examples and studies are critically examined in this book. It also identifies key technological facet that supports the relevance of hardware perspective of IoT and discusses the benefits and challenges to dominate the next decades. The book serves as an excellent reference for senior undergraduates and graduates in electrical and computer engineering, research scholars, mobile and wireless communications engineers, IT engineers, and electronics engineers who need to understand IoT at an in-depth level to build and manage IoT solutions.
