Abstract
Although Internet of Things (IoT) brings significant advantages over traditional
communication technologies for smart grid and smart home applications, these
implementations are still very rare. Relying on a comprehensive literature review, this paper
aims to contribute towards narrowing the gap between the existing state-of-the-art smart home
applications and the prospect of their integration into an IoT enabled environment. We
propose a holistic framework which incorporates different components from IoT
architectures/frameworks proposed in the literature, in order to efficiently integrate smart
home objects in a cloud-centric IoT based solution. We identify a smart home management
model for the proposed framework and the main tasks that should be performed at each
level. We additionally discuss practical design challenges with emphasis on data processing,
as well as smart home communication protocols and their interoperability. We believe that the
holistic framework ascertained in this paper can be used as a solid base for the future
developers of Internet of Things based smart home solutions.
