For simplifying and speeding up the development of Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem, there has been a proliferation of IoT Platforms, built up according to different design principles, computing paradigms, technologies, and targets. This paper proposes a review of main examples populating the wide landscape of IoT Platforms and their comparison on the basis of the IoT-A Reference Architecture. In such a way, heterogeneous IoT Platforms (both current and future) can be analyzed regardless of their low-level specifications but exclusively through the lens of those key functionalities and architectural building blocks that enable the interplay among devices, data flow, software, and stakeholders within the IoT ecosystem.

Abstract
For simplifying and speeding up the development of Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem, there has been a proliferation of IoT Platforms, built up according to different design principles, computing paradigms, technologies, and targets. This paper proposes a review of main examples populating the wide landscape of IoT Platforms and their comparison on the basis of the IoT-A Reference Architecture. In such a way, heterogeneous IoT Platforms (both current and future) can be analyzed regardless of their low-level specifications but exclusively through the lens of those key functionalities and architectural building blocks that enable the interplay among devices, data flow, software, and stakeholders within the IoT ecosystem.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
