The Internet of Things (IoT) has evolved from Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) to connect smart devices to each other. IoT is the next big leap in information and communication technology and is estimated to reach a 1.7 trillion dollar (US) market size with over 50 billion IoT devices by the year 2020. IoT is likely to have an astonishing impact in areas such as energy management, transportation, industrial control, and healthcare; all of which are essential to have a sustainable development and utilization of the Earth’s scarce resources. IoT is currently still in its early stages for delivering the promised impact. The challenges that remain to be resolved are in real-time and reliable communications, quality of service provisions, and interoperability among different communication technologies. For example, it is extremely difficult to achieve ubiquitous coverage with a single network technology. Therefore, interoperability among different architectures and technologies must be provided. IoT is expected to operate reliably for a number of years with batteries, which require balanced energy consumption. The protocol stacks of heterogeneous IoT networks must be able to translate the requirements between different standards to reach desirable objectives. Vehicular Networks (VNs) are essential in providing active safety and emergency applications to reduce and possibly eliminate vehicle accidents. That is why automotive and communication industries are cooperating together to develop Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I) communication technologies. IEEE 802.11p also known as Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) standard for safety messaging was a result of this cooperation. DSRC allows message exchanges among vehicles to inform their vital mobility information such as heading, location, and speed for collision avoidance and emergency applications. However, V2V and V2I communications are still not reliable since a large packet generation rate in a relatively busy network can cause congestion, interference and processing load. There is also no provision in DSRC for multi-hop networking, where the utilization and effectiveness of the system will be significantly enhanced if V2V allows networking to extend the range of the information dissemination. Content based networking is important and will be explored for the V2V communications. Developing a research tool (middleware) to increase pace of the research in IoT is extremely important. This tool will bridge the gap between high level algorithm development environment and hardware platforms and be developed as part of this proposed research in order to verify the completeness of IoT protocols. Provided funding will enable to solve above mentioned problems related to IoT and VNs, contribute to Canada’s competitiveness by developing intellectual property and contributing HQP training.

物联网 (IoT) 从无线传感器网络 (WSN) 发展而来，将智能设备相互连接起来，是信息和通信技术的下一个重大飞跃，预计将达到 1.7 万亿美元的市场规模。到2020年，物联网设备数量将超过500亿。物联网可能会对能源管理、交通、工业控制和医疗保健等领域产生惊人的影响，所有这些对于地球稀缺资源的可持续开发和利用至关重要； 。 物联网目前仍处于实现预期影响的早期阶段，仍有待解决的挑战包括实时可靠的通信、服务质量以及不同通信技术之间的互操作性。因此，物联网必须提供不同架构和技术之间的互操作性，才能使用电池可靠运行数年，这需要平衡异构物联网网络的协议栈。能够翻译不同标准之间的要求以达到理想的目标。 车载网络 (VN) 对于提供主动安全和应急应用以减少甚至消除车辆事故至关重要，这就是汽车和通信行业共同合作开发车辆对车辆 (V2V) 和车辆对基础设施 (V2I) 通信技术的原因。 IEEE 802.11p 也称为安全消息传送专用短程通信 (DSRC) 标准，DSRC 允许车辆之间进行消息交换，以告知其重要的移动信息，例如航向、位置和信息。然而，V2V 和 V2I 通信仍然不可靠，因为繁忙网络中相对较大的数据包生成率可能会导致拥塞、干扰和处理负载。 DSRC 中也没有提供多跳网络。 ，如果V2V允许网络扩展信息传播的范围，系统的利用率和有效性将显着提高，基于内容的网络非常重要，并将针对V2V通信进行探索。 开发一种研究工具（中间件）来加快物联网研究的步伐非常重要，该工具将弥合高级算法开发环境和硬件平台之间的差距，并作为本拟议研究的一部分进行开发，以验证物联网的完整性。物联网协议。 所提供的资金将能够解决上述与物联网和虚拟网络相关的问题，通过开发知识产权和提供 HQP 培训来提高加拿大的竞争力。
