Opis

This textbook provides introductory concepts of the Internet of Things (IoT) in a concise and clear format. It presents in-depth information on the technological transformations and attributes of IoT. It also presents various examples of the applications of IoT in the field of civil engineering, both in laboratories and in the field. Various self-explanatory illustrations, figures, photographs and numerical details are included for a better understanding of concepts. A summary of contents and a list of review questions are provided at the end of each section for self-evaluation of the learnings from each chapter. A dedicated chapter for teachers is also provided which discusses pedagogy and curriculum development for the emerging field of IoT with reference to civil engineering education. The book also suggests methods of utilisation and integration of IoT concepts in education through assignments, tutorials, project works and research topics.This book is a valuable learning resource for undergraduate civil engineering students with limited exposure to computer science and engineering. It also functions as a reference resource for postgraduate students and scholars dealing with the application of IoT in civil engineering.
