A new development model for the Internet of Things terminal

Terminal plays a key role in Internet of Things that decides the development and deployment of business. At current phase, terminal development has lagged far behind, and shows a small, few and scattered pattern, which the terminal development models have a significant impact on. In this thesis we presented an analysis of three typical models of terminal development and based on these models argued the problems in Internet of Things terminal development. We proposed a new model according to Internet of Things terminal special features and referencing to these three models of some excellent concepts. This new model is based on a concept of a scalable middleware framework and another idea of implementing the middleware framework by a public middleware development platform. The new model is aiming for reducing Internet of Things terminal development cycle and lowering terminal cost. We also described and discussed a possible ecosystem of industry based on the new model.
