IoT and WSN integration for Data Acquisition and Supervisory Control

Abstract

There is an increased use of WSN (Wireless Sensor Networks) in our daily lives with WSN finding application in different areas like maintaining health, better quality of life scenarios, production monitoring in industries, traffic control and various other fields. WSNs have a scope for being incorporated in IoT (Internet of Things). IoT is beneficial foe Web based applications having specific requirements of storage and computation. This paper gives a flexible and extensible architecture to integrate WSN and IoT. REST based internet services as used as a layer interoperating as an application layer which has a possibility of being integrated directly into the other domains of application to remotely monitor smart homes, VAN (Vehicular area networks) or healthcare services.
