Internet of Things, Wearable, and Cloud Computing – A Survey

The recent spurt in consumerization, especially due to the introduction of smartphones and now wearables, has made technology an inseparable entity of human life. Thousands of applications are being developed and used on a regular basis all across the globe; say to improve the lifestyle, for healthcare, for time saving, for data security, etc; the list goes on endlessly.

But as they say, every new innovation accompanies with a lot of new challenges and in turn, churns new ideas/methodologies to sort them out.

Avinash Magdum, GM- Quality, Harbinger Systems, recently wrote a research paper highlighting the applications of cloud computing, IoT and wearables in software development and in day-to-day lifestyle. The paper accentuates the problems and challenges faced by the researchers in building applications with these technologies followed  with the inferences to solve them. A glance of the synopsis below acknowledges the efficacy it provides-
