Abstract

The proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) logistics applications necessitates the availability of new generation 'brokers' to bridge the smart objects to each other and to the enterprise world (IT systems). Such brokers need to be able to cope with the diversity of the IoT objects in their environment, in terms of intelligence and communication capabilities. More specifically, the brokers should employ trust computation mechanisms and publish-subscribe architectures. This paper proposes the architecture and functionality of IoT brokers and illustrates their use in logistics environments.
