Communication Models in IoT

Communication Models

The IoT Communication model aims at defining the main communication paradigm for connecting elements, as defined in the IoT Domain Model. We provide a reference set of communication rules to build interoperable stacks together with insights. We propose a communication model that leverages on the ISO OSI 7 layer model for networks and aims at highlighting those peculiar aspects inherent to the inter-operation among different stacks, which we will call in what follows, interoperability features.

Further, the application of communication schemes, such as application gateways, transparent proxy, network virtualization, etc. The IoT Communication model can be used to model how the monitoring Sensors of the truck can seamlessly interact with Ted’s phone and how it can communicate with the store enterprise system.
