Technical Report: Rapid Reviews on Engineering of Internet of Things Software Systems
This work addresses the challenge of systematically reviewing IoT engineering facets for researchers and practitioners, but it is incremental as it applies existing review methods to IoT.
The authors conducted rapid reviews to characterize six facets of Internet of Things software systems, including connectivity and security, and developed a generic meta-protocol to guide these reviews.
We conducted a set of Rapid Reviews to characterize Internet of Things facets. We formatted a generic meta-protocol that was instantiated for each of the six facets presented (Connectivity, Things, Behavior, Smartness, Interactivity, and Environment)and considering the issue of Security, one of the most important and frequent challenges in the context of IoT. The meta-protocol is detailed and the results of each review are presented.
