ABOUT THE BOOK

Internet of Things (IoT): Architecture and Design Principles (2nd Edition), authored by the eminent academician Dr. Raj Kamal, is a thoroughly updated, core textbook tailored for engineering, computer science, and IT students. Published by McGraw Hill, this comprehensive guide delves into the foundational architecture, communication protocols, and complex design models that define modern interconnected environments. The core philosophy of this text is to provide a smooth transition from basic embedded systems to global cloud-integrated networks, teaching readers how to collect, securely process, and exchange data across billions of physical devices.

The second edition has been heavily revised to align with the latest AICTE undergraduate engineering curriculum. It covers a massive breadth of advanced technology, including edge computing, wireless sensor networks, and crucial Industry 4.0 paradigms like machine-to-machine (M2M) communication, Digital Twins, and TinyML. Meticulously organized, the textbook breaks down complex protocols (such as MQTT and CoAP) alongside hands-on application frameworks using Arduino and Raspberry Pi. By integrating real-world case studies spanning automated manufacturing, smart grids, connected healthcare, and modern agriculture, the book provides students and hardware-software professionals with a practical blueprint for engineering resilient, scalable IoT solutions.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Dr. Raj Kamal is a highly distinguished Indian professor, researcher, and author with over four decades of academic and industrial experience. He earned his PhD from the prestigious IIT Delhi at the young age of 22 and has since dedicated his career to advancing engineering and computer science education. Widely regarded as a trusted authority on microprocessor architecture and embedded frameworks, his books are primary staples across higher education institutions.

Dr. Kamal’s writing style is famously systematic, pedagogical, and highly reader-friendly. He bypasses dense, ungrounded abstractions by anchoring every structural model with clear, illustrative figures, laboratory exercises, and step-by-step design frameworks. His extensive bibliography—which includes market-leading titles on Embedded Systems and Computer Architecture—reflects his dedication to providing accessible, high-tier technical literature for the next generation of global system developers.
