By 2020, it is expected that more than 50 billion devices will be connected to
systems. the cloud and each other1 in what is commonly called the Internet of Things
(IoT). This technological revolution is likely to have a tremendous impact on the
smart building and home industry because of the possibility to greatly lower
the cost and effort to instrument buildings with sensors, and to take advantage
of powerful cloud-based data analytics.
