IoT Important Topics - Last Minute Notes

1. OIC Definition, Architecture & Design

OIC (Open Interconnect Consortium) aims to ensure secure and reliable device interoperability in

IoT.

- Architecture: Based on resource-based RESTful APIs.

- Design: Focuses on discovery, data transmission, and device management.

2. Resource Abstraction

Resource abstraction hides hardware complexity and presents a simplified interface to developers,

ensuring devices can interact uniformly despite differences in hardware or platforms.

3. Key Features of IoTivity with Real-life Example

IoTivity is a framework developed by OIC.

- Features: Device discovery, data transmission, device management, security.

- Example: A smart home system where lights, thermostats, and locks are controlled via a mobile

app using IoTivity.

4. Challenges, Advantages & Disadvantages of IoTivity

- Challenges: Compatibility, scalability, and data security.

- Advantages: Open-source, supports RESTful APIs, secure communication.

- Disadvantages: High resource consumption on low-end devices, limited support on non-OIC

devices.

5. IoT Stack (Layer-wise)

1. Perception Layer - Sensors/actuators

2. Network Layer - Communication (Wi-Fi, 5G, etc.)

3. Middleware Layer - Data processing, device management

4. Application Layer - Smart services (healthcare, smart city)

6. OIC Framework & IoT Framework

- OIC Framework: Ensures interoperability across different manufacturers. Uses IoTivity as its
reference implementation.

- IoT Framework: General model for IoT including sensing, network, data processing, and

application layers.
