This blog post would be the last blog of my research program.

So, coming on the topic as i have concluded that, With uses of appropriate and valid technologies, efficiency of the system could be achieved and all the different factors can be controlled by switching the techniques and using different combination for different types of the scenarios.

Through this subject ITC571 I have learnt very important insights like:

• Able to conduct a research by following well structured research plan.
• Depth and the evolution of IoT.
• Upcoming technologies.
• Implementation of successful wireless networks.
• Architecture of the wireless sensor system using cluster topology.
• Importance of SWORD algorithm.
• Zigbee and other technologies usability.

I would like to thank Dr Mansoor Raza for guiding me through the time of the research and teaching me ways of conducting a high quality and rich methodologies of conducting a research.

I am about to wrap up the research so i thought sharing my finding out of the whole research.

Interestingly, I have explored the flaws and major successful platforms that could actually contribute to increase or monitor the efficiency of the IoT in farming.

Findings for the efficiency of the system has,

Zigbee being most widely and most compatible technology network that is used with sensor typologies or infusion with other technologies to give out the best results. As seen from the analysis, it has proven to be the most secure technology with high encryption of the data that reduce the security cost of the system overall. And Wi-Fi with medium efficiency and low accuracy proved to be the less used and non-reliable technology used for precision farming. On the other hand Bluetooth being low cost technology with very low energy consumption could be used for very short distance communication of sensor nodes. And WiMAX being very expensive technology also limits its use as it cannot prove to be efficient is terms of cost.
