Exploring the social Internet of Things concept in a univeristy campus using NFC

The use of characteristics of smart objects that have interactions features with humans, gave rise to the Internet of Things (IoT). Numerous derivations from this concept have been proposed. In this article, we focus on one of those called Social Internet of Things (SIoT). SIoT prioritizes the relationship between smart objects, where the objects can establish a connection among themselves without the interference of their owners. The purpose of this article is to explore the concept of SIoT in a University Campus, offering direct communication between intelligent devices. These devices share information based on an academic criteria and preferences informed by their owners. To evaluate the proposal, we developed a case study. The preliminary results show the viability of the proposal.
