- The Internet of Things or IoT constitutes an ecosystem of interconnected devices that collect, process, and transmit data, enabling heightened intelligence and real-time responses. It forms the nervous system of cognitive cities, integrating urban systems, and driving efficiency. According to Gartner, the enterprise and automotive IoT markets will grow to $5.8 billion in 2023, a 21% increase from 2020. This exponential growth highlights the expanding role of IoT in shaping digitally advanced urban ecosystems like cognitive cities. IoT devices in cognitive cities collect comprehensive real-time data across diverse city domains. From environmental sensors measuring air quality to smart meters gauging energy consumption, and traffic detectors optimizing vehicular flow, these devices generate the critical data that underpin the city's cognitive capabilities. Moreover, IoT enables automation and remote control of city…
