Integrated Cloud Internet of Things for Realtime Applications

With the advancement of Internet of Things, the utilization factor has shifted from computers to every gadget used by humans. It is important that the end user services across different applications are required to be offered at one-stop with cost effective solutions. Today sensors are installed in applications that need to be monitored in real-time but it must be taken into consideration with respect to the cost and maintenance involved with physical sensors. Hence there is need to depend on virtual internet of things for real time monitoring of applications with minimal use of physical sensors. Here virtual internet of things is coined as the use of various cloud technologies that control and monitor the applications using API's with minimal use of physical sensors. In this work a plug and play framework is devised based on VIoT (virtual internet of things) and IoT for implementing on applications that are dependent on environmental monitoring. Later based on the defined framework two use cases are illustrated. Here actuation and automation are done based on certain imposed constraints to respond as per inputs and outputs generated by various devices installed in real time applications.
