“…BLE, LoRa, and Zigbee are wireless sensor network technologies; meanwhile, to identify and trace products, RFID is used. BLE can transfer data between different mobile devices [ 44 ]. Communication methods can be long in their range (LoRa, SigFox, and Wi-Fi) or short-range (Bluetooth, RFID, and Zigbee) [ 24 ].…”

The Internet of Things (IoT) is essential in innovative applications such as smart cities, smart homes, education, healthcare, transportation, and defense operations. IoT applications are particularly beneficial for providing healthcare because they enable secure and real-time remote patient monitoring to improve the quality of people’s lives. This review paper explores the latest trends in healthcare-monitoring systems by implementing the role of the IoT. The work discusses the benefits of IoT-based healthcare systems with regard to their significance, and the benefits of IoT healthcare. We provide a systematic review on recent studies of IoT-based healthcare-monitoring systems through literature review. The literature review compares various systems’ effectiveness, efficiency, data protection, privacy, security, and monitoring. The paper also explores wireless- and wearable-sensor-based IoT monitoring systems and provides a classification of healthcare-monitoring sensors. We also elaborate, in detail, on the challenges and open issues regarding healthcare security and privacy, and QoS. Finally, suggestions and recommendations for IoT healthcare applications are laid down at the end of the study along with future directions related to various recent technology trends.

“…This includes location-based services (Section 2.1), which originally had a primarily military background but have long since arrived in the private sector, health services (Section 2.2), in which the IoT enables remote health monitoring, voice-controlled digital assistants (Section 2.3), which are an important pillar of any smart home, and surveillance services driven by image analysis (Section 2.4) [16]. Moreover, end-to-end food processing monitoring to ensure food safety is becoming increasingly common, which is enabled by IoT-supported food analysis (Section 2.5) [17]. However, even long-established services, such as recommender systems (Section 2.6) gain new capabilities due to the IoT [18].…”

Protecting Sensitive Data in the Information Age: State of the Art and Future Prospects

The present information age is characterized by an ever-increasing digitalization. Smart devices quantify our entire lives. These collected data provide the foundation for data-driven services called smart services. They are able to adapt to a given context and thus tailor their functionalities to the user’s needs. It is therefore not surprising that their main resource, namely data, is nowadays a valuable commodity that can also be traded. However, this trend does not only have positive sides, as the gathered data reveal a lot of information about various data subjects. To prevent uncontrolled insights into private or confidential matters, data protection laws restrict the processing of sensitive data. One key factor in this regard is user-friendly privacy mechanisms. In this paper, we therefore assess current state-of-the-art privacy mechanisms. To this end, we initially identify forms of data processing applied by smart services. We then discuss privacy mechanisms suited for these use cases. Our findings reveal that current state-of-the-art privacy mechanisms provide good protection in principle, but there is no compelling one-size-fits-all privacy approach. This leads to further questions regarding the practicality of these mechanisms, which we present in the form of seven thought-provoking propositions.

“…The logical consequence of these studies is the implementation of telemetry with the most used communication technologies like ZigBee©, Wi-Fi, radio-frequency identification (RFID) and Bluetooth© low energy (BLE). The implementation of IoT for food quality monitoring has exceptional potential, but the real applications of IoT for food quality monitoring are still rare [ 27 ]. Bluetooth© connection in particular is exceptionally effective for short range wireless communication and has already been proposed for controlling temperature and humidity in food storage systems [ 28 ].…”

This work provides companies in the fresh-cut produce sector with an Ascorbate Bluetooth© Analyzer (ABA), a screen-printed sensor-based device for ascorbic acid (AA) detection, for quality control all along the supply chain. The amperometric detection of AA on fresh and fresh-cut parsley, under correct and incorrect storage temperature, allowed us to investigate the kinetics of AA decay in response to oxidative stress. The role of ascorbate oxidase (AOx) and ascorbate peroxidase (APx) was studied. ABA was used in situ by unskilled personnel. Treatments influenced AA decay kinetics, which were linear in fresh parsley, and non-linear in fresh-cut. Two hours at 28 °C immediately after chopping, the resilience of the fresh-cut parsley was reduced, even though the cold chain was restored. Two hours at −2 °C caused a rapid loss of AA until its complete decay after 72 h. Significant differences between treatments were observed in both the expression and activity of AOx and APx. ABA registered sudden changes of parsley AA following unpredicted variations of temperature during processing or transport. It was useful to remedy the effects of unexpected flaws in the cold chain, which can be proposed for quality preservation of different fresh-cut produce.
