Internet of People (IoP)
 A hyper-connected society, in which the option to communicate
with others will be not only permanent and universal, but also
available through different kinds of media and by using
numerous devices. Telefónica
 Communication services will support one-to-one, one-to-many
and many-to-many forms of communication, combining voice,
text, images, video, telepresence, 3D video and even holograms,
and allowing the above methods to complement one another.

 the connection and communication that happens between the
people
 key characteristics of the IoP paradigm; IoP is:
 human-centric, and, as a consequence, is multi-disciplinary,
as IoP algorithms should be based on quantitative models of
the human individual and social behavior derived and
validated in various research communities, such as sociology,
anthropology, cognitive psychology, micro-economics,
physics of complex systems, etc.
 device-centric, as users’ devices are seen as ‘‘core IoP
nodes’’, which are proxies of the humans in the cyber world,
and host a significant part of the logic of the IoP algorithms.
 key characteristics of the IoP paradigm; IoP is:
 data- and computing-oriented, as IoP will naturally
include primitives dealing with data management and data
centric computing, because data access, rather than
connection to specific devices, is what humans will use the
Internet for, most of the time.
 self-organizing, as in IoP users’ devices can establish
spontaneous, infrastructure-less, networks with nearby
devices, if local communications are the most effective ways
to achieve a given task, e.g., exchanging data with the
devices of other people that share the same location.
