Some experiences in building IoT platform

In this paper we give a short survey of some existing solutions and describe our attempt to build an Internet of Things platform independent of underlying hardware. It is concluded that the best way to do that is to virtualize hardware by using common microkernel-based operating system. Such an operating systems exists as an open source, however porting it to the particular hardware board turned out to be a non-trivial task. The proposed platform was tested in setup with full radio coverage and with star topology by using the standard socket API.
