Abstract

The revolution of the Internet of Things (IoT) will change our perception of computing moving into the next decade, simplifying everyday tasks, to a simple tap on a smart device. This paper will primarily look at a Smart University utilising automation and IoT to improve its sustainability and use for Students and Staff. Research areas to be considered; students count, environment management i.e. lights, blinds, and temperature, this paper will identify some currently available products and software available on the market which could make this possible. A consideration towards the future scalability of the smart university and to the potential of automating other areas will also be discussed. In addition to the research, a model of a smart university will be demonstrated using network simulation software known as QualNet. This will show how the network performs under simulation conditions.
