Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) is an emerging paradigm that aims to represent the physical world, change the way we interact with the things around us. IoT describes every system through uniquely identifiable and interconnected objects (things). Things have the capacity for sensing, processing or actuating information about entities available from within the real world. Thus, information travels along heterogeneous systems, such as routers, databases, information systems and the Internet, leading in the generation and movement of enormous amounts of data which have to be stored, processed and presented in a seamless, efficient and easily interpretable form. At the same time, Cloud Computing is quickly becoming a pervasive technology, able to offer several types of services according to different business models.
