Abstract

There is a general consensus that the Internet of things (IoT) is set to change how we work and interacts with the world in every possible manner. IoT will create opportunities for more direct integration of the physical world with computer-based systems, thus producing new and improved services. The possibility to collect and analyze a large quantity of data, and communicate in various ways (such as Device-to-Device, Device-to-Cloud, Device-to-Gateway, and Back-End Data-Sharing) open up new challenging scenarios. Smart cities are an example of how to exploit IoT and Big Data analysis coming from various sources, e.g. transportation, weather, building status, energy consumption, etc. This paper illustrates how the Smart and Connected Communities (SCC) that are an emerging concept which aims to exploit state-of-the-art technologies, such as Big Data and IoT, can promote sustainable development of rural and urban communities. The aim of this paper is to provide an exploratory analysis of the use, efficacy and contribution of SCC to an eco-compatible development. The major challenges in SCC are also discussed.
