This course looks at the Internet of Things (IoT)
as the general theme of physical/real-world things becoming increasingly visible and actionable via Internet and Web technologies. The goal of the course is to look top-down as well as bottom-up, to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the IoT.
This course is taught by a team of researchers from the Siemens Silicon Valley Web of Things
Research Group. The lectures as well as the lab will be based on experience and research projects from our lab. The sources for this web site are available on GitHub.

Overview and Introduction: In this introductory lecture we give a brief overview of the course's subject and organization. We discuss the course content by presenting the syllabus, and structuring it into the three main topics of technical, business, and societal themes. Organizational issues about the course include lectures, readings, lab time, assignments, and grading.

Internet of Things (IoT) and Web of Things (WoT): What's WoT?: Internet of Things (IoT) and Web of Things (WoT) have become very popular terms, but with great fame comes great fuzziness. In this lecture we are putting things into perspective, and give one possible definition of the terms IoT and WoT. Understanding the big pictureand how IoT/WoT fit in with other popular topics (such as Big Data) is another goal of this lecture.

Internet and Web Layering: Layering is one of the fundamental abstractions of IT systems and models. One important area where this concept is applied is computer communication networks. As one way how the terms IoT and WoT can be defined and distinguished, it is possible to look at how the Internet and the web are layered, how they are related, and how this can be translated into scenarios where resources are real-world resources.

Business Aspects of the Internet of Things: In the previous lectures we have discussed the technical foundations and drivers of the Internet of Things. The purpose of this lecture is to give a brief overview about the business drivers providing the rational of why corporations invest into IoT. We will take a look at some of the business opportunities of the IoT in the industrial domain and within domestic environments.

Representational State Transfer (REST) and Activity Streams: The Web's architectural style, Representational State Transfer (REST), is one promising candidate for building open, extensible, and extensible ecosystems of services on the Web. In this picture, Web's fundamental role is that of a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), where resources can be accessed as a way to achieve application goals, but their implementation is of no concern to the users of the resources. Activity Streams (AS) are a developing standard that allows the sharing of activities across a variety of application domain. In this lecture the standard is discussed, and we look at specific applications of it in IoT/WoT scenarios.

Making Things Smart: Getting Things onto the Internet: The purpose of this lecture is to give an overview of key technologies for connecting (smart) devices to the Internet (and the Web). We will talk about specific classes of capabilities of devices that we want to bring to the IoT and discuss a few technologies that bring formerly dumb devices to "life."

IoT Communication Protocols: In this lecture we are looking at both lower layer (CoAP) and specific communication protocols (XMPP, WebSocket, AMQP, MQTT, WebRTC, PuSH), as examples of how specific requirements in application areas have resulted in a variety of protocols. The main challenge in this space is to not compare protocols feature-by-feature, but to understand what they do and do not cover, and what they have been designed for.
