Emerging Paradigm of IoT Enabled Smart Villages
Abstract
Smart-village is an emerging paradigm that tries to digitize various aspects of rural activities using various IoT technologies. Different activities like smart-agriculture, waste-management, irrigation-management, livestock management, smart energy, smart-healthcare, and smart-education fall under its purview. However, infrastructure and cost are two major barriers towards a smart-village implementation and sustainability, that differentiates it from a smart-city. Considering this we present the current state-of-art of smart-villages by creating a detailed taxonomy. A collaborative edge-computing model is proposed keeping in mind the resource constrains in a smart-village. Finally, the open research issues and challenges are discussed.
