Abstract

The Internet is an evolving entity.  It started as the “Internet of Computers.”  Research studies have forecast an explosive growth in the number of “things” or devices that will be connected to the Internet.  The resulting network is called the “Internet of Things” (IoT).  This paper provides a simple introduction to the IoT, its application and potential benefits to the society.
