Abstract
Internet of things (IOT) is an emerging branch in computer science, which is finding widespread application in a large number of places. In this chapter we will discuss how Internet of things can be used to make infrastructures like home and cities smart. In building infrastructures like smart home and smart cities IOT can be used extensively to achieve automation. Smart home is an Infrastructure in which various electronic devices can communicate with each other and achieve a certain level of automation. Internet of things can be used to achieve this automation in homes using a centralized internet network, sensors and identifiers (like RFID tags etc). An even better implementation of IOT can be done by adding a system to collect and analyse the data generated by sensors on a regular interval and hence improve the performance of overall system. Unlike home which is just a single unit, a city is a collection of many small infrastructures like smart lighting which can automatically adjust its illumination based on the lighting conditions, connected streets which helps in reducing traffic and improve mobility within the city, smart parking management to provide hassle free parking etc. All these infrastructures can be implemented using Internet of things.
