Abstract:
In this paper, we present the main concepts of the Internet of Things (IoT), which consists of a mix of smart devices,sensors and the Internet itself. In this research, we also address the concept of middleware, which is a platform that links both sensors and devices on IoT. In addition, we analyze selected research on IoT in order to gather information to construct a synopsis of the main facts in these articles. We identified paramount facts studied in each of these articles, so that we could perform a comparative analysis to highlight similarities with broader relevance.
