Reading List: Top Resources to Read About IoT

October 2, 2015

Today the Internet of Things is radically changing the way we live and interact with the world around us. This statement does not seem too bold if we look at how much the Internet has already influenced such spheres as education, communication, business, science, government, and the entire human society. And the IoT is the next stage in the development of the Internet, that is characterised with the emergence of “smart” and connected devices, which interact not only with users, but also with each other. And it is expected that in the future, ‘things’ will become active participants of all processes, will interact and communicate with each other by sharing information about the environment, respond to and influence the processes occurring in the environment without human participation. That sounds impressive, but it is even more exciting to know that this future is already happening now.

While every day new technologies open up more and more amazing opportunities, we want to keep abreast of all the news and developments in the field. That is why we made a list of resources that will help you to stay informed and follow all the news happening in the IoT world.
