Abstract :
The future of communication resides in Internet of Things, which is certainly the most sought after technology today. The applications of IoT are diverse, and range from ordinary voice recognition to critical space programmes. Recently, a lot of efforts have been made to design operating systems for IoT devices because neither traditional Windows/Unix, nor the existing Real Time Operating Systems are able to meet the demands of heterogeneous IoT applications. This paper presents a survey of operating systems that have been designed so far for IoT devices and also outlines a generic framework that brings out the essential features desired in an OS tailored for IoT devices.
