ABSTRACT
Internet of Things (IoT) is fast becoming a disruptive technology business opportunity, with standards emerging primarily for wireless communication between sensors, actuators and gadgets in day-to-day human life, all in general being referred to as “Things”. Its adoption has proven well suited for sectors that manage a large number of assets and coordinate complex and distributed processes. Although the IoT may encounter little changes in areas like it's standard, security, regulation, privacy amongst a few, it is undeniably transforming the way that organizations communicate and organize everyday businesses and industrial procedures. This survey analyzes the great potential for applying IoT technologies (i.e., data-driven applications or embedded automation and intelligent adaptive systems) to revolutionize modern warfare and provide benefits similar to those in industry. It identifies scenarios where Defense and Public Safety (PS) could leverage better commercial IoT capabilities to deliver greater survivability to the warfighter or first responders and the public while reducing costs and increasing operation efficiency and effectiveness.
