TheIoTecosystemishardtodefine.Itiscomplex,anditisdifficulttocaptureduetothevastnessof possibilityandtherapiditywithwhichitisexpanding.however,thereisnodoubtthatiotischanging the world. It is shaping the evolution of the Internet. IoT is creating numerous challenges and opportunitiesforengineeringandscience.inresponsetothesechallengesandopportunities,theieee created an IoT Initiative to coordinate its IoT efforts in publications, conferences, education, and standardization. The success of IoT depends strongly on standardization, which provides interoperability,compatibility,reliability,andeffectiveoperationsonaglobalscale. Recognizing the value of IoT to industry and the benefits this technological innovation brings to the public,theieeestandardsassociation(ieee$sa)hasanumberofstandards,projects,andevents(see0) thataredirectlyrelatedtocreatingtheenvironmentneededforavibrantiot. AsapartoftheIEEEIoTInitiative,theIEEESA developedthis IoT ecosystem study. IEEESAengaged stakeholdersinkeyregionsoftheworldtoobtaintheinputthatshapedthisstudy.thisengagement was in the form of a series of roundtable discussions held by IEEE$SA.

9 IEEE$SAIoTEcosystemStudy WhatisIoT? Theprimarydifferentiatorbetweenthetraditional(legacy)InternetandtheInternetofThings(IoT)is theproliferationofuniquelyidentifiabledeviceswithembeddedsensorsandactuators. Thereisno official definitionofiot.manyoftheorganizationsworkinginiothavecreateddefinitions; thesedefinitionsdifferwidely.thesecurrentdefinitionsvarysomuchthattheyarereminiscentofthe taleoftheblindmenandtheelephant.withoutacommondefinitionofiot,itwillbedifficulttoput togethersolutionsorevendefineproblemareas. Some people think of IoT as a new add$on to the traditional Internet; others think of IoT as the ongoingevolutionoftheinternet.underbothdefinitions,theendresultwillbetheinterconnectionof all things.thedistinctionbetweenthetwoclassesofdefinitionsisthatthe evolutionary definition ofiotincludestraditionalcomputingandnetworkingdevices,aswellassmartphones,tablets,point$of$ sale(pos)terminalsandthemyriadnewsensorsandsmartobjectsthatarebeginningtoappear.while there is merit to both conceptualizations, the evolutionary interpretation is adopted for this study because it is inclusive and avoids the need to identify individual devices and services as being either traditional or IoT. Thus, for the purpose of this study: IoT$ refers$ to$ any$ systems$ of$ interconnected$ people,$ physical$ objects,$ and$ IT$ platforms,$ as$ well$ as$ any$ technology$ to$ better$ build,$ operate,$ and$ manage$the$physical$world$via$pervasive$data$collection,$smart$networking,$predictive$analytics,$and$ deep$optimization. NotethattherearemanyIoTs.ThereistheglobalIoT(evolvingfromtheglobalInternet)aswellaslocal andprivateiots.theterm IoT encompassesallofthese.

IoTproductsincludedevices,apps,andservices(e.g.,smartphones,tablets,intelligentnetworks,big$ dataanalytics,andcloudstorage).akeyaspectofiotistheintelligentconnectivityoftheseproducts. For the most part, IoT devices will be self$configuring and adaptive to reduce the need for human interaction (e.g., network discovery, self$description of devices, auto$configuration of device and networkparameters).however,itislikelythattherewillbesituationswheredeviceswillbemorerigidly constrainedtosatisfysafety,legal,andregulatoryobligations. IoTisthesubjectofagreatdealofhypeandmanyboldpredictionsaboutwhereitwilleventuallytake us. However, there is no question that IoT is changing the world. In addition to connecting people, anytime and everywhere, it is connecting IoT products to humans and other IoT products, and it is puttingtheseproductsattheserviceofhumanity.thistransformationhasalreadybegun;itwillonly continuetoaccelerate. 3

Manyplayersparticipateinboth categories;theyareclassifiedhereinbasedontheirprincipalparticipation. Players in the off$line world are the thing manufacturers. They are producing smart appliances, home automation devices, personal appliances (smart phones, wearables, etc.), smartautomobiles,etc. Players in the on$line world generally provide IoT$enabling services although many also provide things. Players include Amazon, Apple, Google, and Microsoft. On$line players are pioneeringinmanyservicesandapplications,e.g.,microsoft Azure,AmazonWebServices, GoogleGlass(athing),smartphones,etc. Researchandacademia Researchandacademiaarebusycreatingthetheories,newproducts,andmaterialsthatwillfuelthe growthofiot.academiaisalsoeducatingthenewgenerationoftechnologistsandbusinesspeoplewho willexpandiot.forfurtherdiscussion,see RoleofAcademiaandResearch. 4
11 IEEE$SAIoTEcosystemStudy Governmentsandutilities Governmentsandutilitiesarecreatingsmartcities,thesmartgrid,etc.SpecificexamplesofIoTdevices beingdeployedincludetrafficcameras,securitycameras,smartmeters,adaptivetrafficcontrollers,etc. Governments also play a key role in shaping technology through funding (defense, energy, transportation, etc.) and setting regulatory frameworks and policies (security, interoperability, etc.). GovernmentsarealreadyinvestinginIoTdomains. Otherplayers In addition to established players, entrepreneurs will also play a role, creating new markets and disrupting existing markets with novel new products. In areas of high unemployment, one path that talented and ambitious individuals are taking as an alternative to being unemployed is to become entrepreneurs. Arguably,consumersthemselvesareplayerswhowillshapeIoTbytheirpurchases.Examplesofthese choices include wearables (Google Glass, smart watches, etc.) and crowdfunding support for entrepreneurs.forfurtherdiscussion,see UserAcceptanceisKey. Finally, regulatory agencies cannot be overlooked. Nearly every nation has one or more regulatory organizationsthatwillgovernsomeaspectofiot(e.g.,privacy,health,wirelesstechnology),andtheir impactwillbefelt.

Industrialandmanufacturing Activities in this market segment include such diverse activities as industrial automation (e.g., automatedassemblylines)andmaterialflowtraceabilitysystems. Automation of production already plays an important role in manufacturing. IoT is increasing automation and providing more flexibility and efficiency to the production process. IoT allows localizationofindividualproductsintheproductionlinesandtheautomaticselectionoftherequired production steps.

There are also concerns regarding how IoT sensor and actuator modules that have relatively short lifespans can be integrated with long$lived products like automobiles and appliances.
