A Short Literature Review on the Internet of Things: Research and Development Projects

There have been cases, where projects implemented the technological innovation early upon after introduction, while the technology field was still new and knowledge was not matured. The projects were predicted to fail, since the technology was still undeveloped, and that prediction came true. The same downfall has been suspected to happen to the field of IoT as well. This paper carries information on measures that have been taken in the areas of research, innovation and deployment IoT Solutions, an overview of projects funded by the European commission such as the iCORE project, COMPOSE project, the SmartSantader project and the Open IoT project, and how the Thing Commandment principles can be implemented to ensure better deployment of IoT solutions leading to the success of IoT projects.
