Chapter 1 Homework Problems:
1 What are the main differences between IoT and Wearable Technology?
A Communication is IP based in IoT, while it’s not necessary in wearables.
B Most wearables rely on a gateway device, such as a smartphone, for con -
figuration and connectivity, and in most cases to enable features and pro -
cess data. This is not always true in IoT devices.
C IoT devices are mainly stationary, wearables on the other hand are mobile
since they are worn/ integrated within the user’s body or clothing.
2 What is it meant by “things” in Internet of Things?
The core functionality of IoT and wearable devices starts with data acquired
or an action performed by a device. These devices are called endpoints, and
they are the “Things” in Internet of Things. The value of IoT and wearable
devices is in the data collected by these endpoints, so it is important to under-
stand how they acquire, process, transmit, and receive data.
3 What are the main differences between IoT and M2M?
A Communication is IP based in IoT, while it’s usually not in M2M.
B M2M is mainly point to point while this is not true when it comes IoT.
C M2M devices are stationary, IoT could be stationary, or portable/mobile.
4 Can you think of other potential challenges found in IoT and wearable tech-
nology other than the ones mentioned in this chapter?
A There are several other challenges besides the ones mentioned in the
chapter which include: Design based challenges, safety, longevity, compat-
ibility, etc.
