From today's INTRAnet of things to a future INTERnet of things: a wireless- and mobility-related view

In this article, we present the current status of the Internet of Things, and discuss how the current situation of many "Intranets" of Things should evolve into a much more integrated and heterogeneous system. We also summarize what in our opinion are the main wirelessand mobility-related technical challenges that lie ahead, and outline some initial ideas on how such challenges can be addressed in order to facilitate the IoT's development and acceptance in the next few years. We also describe a case study on the IoT protocol architecture.
