Description
Summary:The Internet of Things (IoT) is still in its stages of infancy as of now but quickly gaining traction. Researchers in the industry across the world are trying to come up with solutions to overcome the huge challenges which the IoT will pose in the future. With IoT solutions which are optimized for intentions of usage in the industry, we would be taking a closer step towards becoming a smart nation. The goal of this project is to be able to understand how a runtime scripting container would work out in an IoT based network. There are some challenges with working with such networks since the devices usually are low powered and are usually resource constrained. Therefore, the networks of such devices demand additional supports of, including both compile and run time as well as deployment process, from the framework to overcome the afore mentioned constraints in achieving effective functioning. This study will look at Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP), which is catered for such devices. It also looks at Actinium, the only existing runtime container framework for CoAP as of now. Actinium will be a good basis for studying on how we should approach in creating such a runtime scripting container. Throughout the course of this study, we tried to set-up, understand and analyse how the framework works with existing technologies. Potential issues with the framework were also pointed out and solved where possible. In overall, it is observed that the framework still has room for improvement in terms of usability and robustness.
