Guardião Cloud - plataforma de apoio para internet das coisas

Abstract

The IoT(Internet of Things) proposes that computer systems are formed by several information producers and/or consumer devices, allowing the development of various solutions based on data collection and analysis. However, in addition to data collection and analysis, it is also necessary to make decisions and act on them. This work’s proposal is to develop a support platform for IoT applications, not only allowing data collection and analysis, but also their use for decision making and action. The platform will allow any device with Internet access to send information in various formats, supporting real-time monitoring of the collected data, as well as the definition of decision-making mechanisms, such as the activation of a particular device or the generation of alerts. As a case study, the platform was applied to monitor a hospital style environment. Some controlled experiments were conducted to evaluate the platform, providing the means for the definition of some design parameters for its deployment.
