“…The Internet of Things (IoT) has been considered one of the major technological revolutions of this century capable of offering all sorts of services [1]. The IoT devices envision a large-scale data collection without human intervention by communicating of various smart, integrated, miniaturised devices (sensors, computing, and networking technologies) [2]. The IoT has the capability to improve the quality of human life by applications in transportation [3], human health [4], manufacturing maintenance [5], and education [6].…”

Mg–Si thin films (23 ≤ at.% Si ≤ 43) were deposited by co-sputtering of Mg and Si targets in an argon atmosphere. Two groups of samples were prepared with respect to sputtering parameters. The first Group I was synthesized while residual pressure in the reactor was lower than 7 × 10−4 Pa and the second Group II when reactor was pumped down to pressure higher than 7 × 10−4 Pa. The Mg2Si phase appeared for all as-deposited films of Group I around the stoichiometric composition region (29 ≤ at.% Si ≤ 37) and in the Mg-rich region (at.% Si < 29) the Mg2Si and Mg phases coexisted. An amorphous structure was obtained for all as-deposited films of Group II no matter their composition (34 ≤ at.% Si ≤ 38) and the Mg2Si structure was achieved after post annealing under air at temperature ≥140 °C. Thermal stability of Mg2Si thin films was investigated by annealing treatments under air. Superficial Mg2Si structural decomposition began at T > 500 °C and layer morphology and structure damaged while annealing temperature increased up to 700 °C. The films’ electrical resistivity, free carrier concentration and mobility as well as Seebeck coefficient were measured and thermoelectric power factors were discussed vs. composition.

“…This study is unique in that it uses the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method as a selection and comparison review technique. In another review presented in [81], the current IoT services were investigated and the article focused on explaining how quality of service (QoS) needs and essentials might be satisfied to guarantee a smart ecosystem. The study presented a detailed analysis regarding the various applications and the threat that the shortage of cross-domain integration may pose.…”

“…Los actuales avances en las tecnologías de la información y comunicación han permitido la expansión del llamado Internet de las Cosas (IoT, Internet of Things) [4], y su variante industrial IIoT (Industrial IoT) [6]: un paradigma basado en la interconexión universal de "objetos" o "cosas" dotadas de identidad digital, y con la habilidad de medir, interpretar/procesar y reaccionar a su entorno, pudiendo colaborar entre ellos para lograr objetivos comunes. Estas aplicaciones se encuentran en ámbitos de aplicación muy diversos, que abarcan desde la monitorización remota para la detección de catástrofes naturales o supervisión médica, hasta ciudades inteligentes o entornos de fabricación flexibles.…”
