The Internet of Things (IoT) is a novel paradigm that is
rapidly gaining ground in the scenario of modern wireless
telecommunications. The basic idea of this concept is the
pervasive presence around us of a variety of things or
objects – such as Radio-Frequency IDentification (RFID)
tags, sensors, actuators, mobile phones, etc. – which,
through unique addressing schemes, are able to interact
with each other and cooperate with their neighbors to
reach common goals [1].
