Architectural and Civil Engineering Applications of IoT

Across their lifetimes, humans predominantly inhabit artificial built environments, as opposed to natural ones. Over the course of history, human curiosity and the pursuit of novelty have driven the continuous transformation of these built environments, a pace that has accelerated significantly in recent times. Each societal innovation leaves its mark on the design of these spaces, and today, humanity is experiencing a rapid surge in technological advancements, particularly in the realm of digital technologies. The ever-evolving landscape of built environments presents an ongoing challenge for individuals, businesses, organizations, and society at large to adapt. This study aims to explore the present-day advancements and potential future applications of the Internet of Things (IoT), a pivotal innovation of our time, and to envision the research agenda necessary for businesses and organizations to navigate these dynamic challenges effectively.
