Humanizing IoT: Defining the Profile and the Reliability of a Thing in a Multi-IoT Scenario

In the last years, things involved in IoT are becoming more and more complex and intelligent. For this reason, they are increasingly showing a behavior looking like the one of humans in social networks. Therefore, recently, several approaches combining the Internet of Thing (IoT) and social networking have been proposed. Thus, it is not out of place to talk about “humanization” of things, i.e., to assume that they show behaviors similar to the one of humans. In such a scenario, defining the profile of a thing and evaluating its reliability are extremely challenging issues. This paper first introduces the MIoT (Multiple IoT) paradigm, conceived to handle complex scenarios where things are organized in several IoTs cooperating with each other. Then, it defines the profile of a thing in a MIoT. Finally, it presents the concept of reliability of a thing in a MIoT.
