Abstract :

The rapid evolution of information and communication technology (ICT) in recent decades has triggered profound transformations across the global economic landscape. A key driver of this transformation is the Internet of Everything (IoE), which integrates objects, data, people, and processes to create interconnected ecosystems that generate unprecedented value. The rise of IoE has not only revolutionized technological innovation but has also played a critical role in reshaping global economies by fostering competitiveness and unlocking new economic opportunities. This article examines the economic impacts and technological breakthroughs driven by IoE in six selected countries—spanning developed, developing, and neighboring economies. By analyzing their experiences, we highlight how these nations have utilized IoE to achieve sustainable growth, strengthen market positions, and accelerate their technological advancement. Countries venturing into the realm of IoE benefit from two key aspects. Firstly, they gain new value from technological innovation, and secondly, they secure competitive advantages and market shares against nations that have yet to invest and adapt to the IoE market. Studying pioneering and trailblazing countries in the realm of this technology, unveiling their patterns, visions, and key achievements, not only provides clear insights, identifies needs, and fosters advancements, but also critically examines and analyzes the subject matter. The findings offer essential insights for policymakers, business leaders, and innovators, providing a roadmap for leveraging IoE to maximize economic benefits and drive digital transformation on a global scale.

1- Introduction

Today, the world is facing a multitude of changes and challenges, with these transformations manifesting in various social, economic, and technological dimensions [1]. In this era of widespread advancements in communication technologies, humans have become acquainted with novel devices, reshaping our world into a complex ecosystem of objects and data. This interconnection and data exchange among devices are referred to as the Internet of Things (IoT), enabling devices to share data and communicate with each other [2]. However, there emerges a more novel and intriguing concept: the Internet of Everything (IoE). This concept offers a more intricate and comprehensive interpretation of the evolution and expansion of the IoT. In this model, communications extend beyond objects, encompassing interactions among people, devices, data, and even processes. Consequently, the IoE becomes a tool that integrates all aspects of our daily lives, giving rise to profound social, economic, and technological impacts. Countries are actively seeking methods to extract greater business benefits from their investments in information technology, and the demand for IT capabilities (ITC) is on the rise [3]. Hence, they allocate a substantial budget annually to information and communication technology (ICT) without certainty about the expected outcomes [4]! In this article, we will explore how countries entering the realm of the IoE benefit in two main ways. First, it will capture the new value generated through technological innovation, and second, by gaining a competitive advantage and market share against those who cannot adapt and invest in the IoE market. Therefore, in this article, we aim to better comprehend and extensively explore the experiences of prominent countries in the realm of the transition toward the IoE. The United Arab Emirates and Turkey serve as neighboring countries, while China and South Korea represent leading and developed nations. Additionally, India and Malaysia are examples of countries in the process of development. These analyses permit us to carefully examine the challenges and advancements of these nations in achieving the goals of the IoE. Figure 1 provides an overarching glimpse into the key themes and objectives explored in this article.

2- Research Background

The concept of the IoE is introduced by Cisco to represent the broader and evolved form of the Internet of Things, and several prominent technology companies, including Gartner and Qualcomm, have also adopted this term almost simultaneously with Cisco. Figure 2 effectively illustrates the distinctions between the Internet of Everything and the Internet of Things [5].

$E:\اصفهان\IoE\2-.jpg$

Fig. 2 The position of the Internet of Things (IoT) in front of Internet of Everything (IoE)

The distinction between the IoE and IoT can have a significant impact on the current research. These distinctions can assist us in studying issues more comprehensively and yield more valuable results. Some of the effects that these distinctions may have include:

Wider Scope: By focusing on the connectivity and interaction between objects, data, people, environments, services, and machinery, we can examine the impacts of IoE in a broader context. This enables better and more comprehensive research on the communications and mutual effects between objects and other factors.

Increased Complexity: With a higher number of interconnected factors, the complexity of communications and interactions among these factors grows. This approach helps researchers identify weaknesses and challenges related to this complexity and propose better solutions for managing and optimizing communications.

Long-term Perspective: By considering all possible connections and communications between objects and other factors, we can effectively construct a long-term vision for the development of technologies and communication systems. This process aids in designing and implementing innovative and sustainable solutions for IoE-related issues.

Machine Learning: Access to a vast amount of data generated by objects and various components of the IoE allows for the use of machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques to extract patterns, predictions, and valuable analyses. This contributes to a deeper understanding of the relationships and trends within the Internet of Everything.

Focusing on these distinctions, this article can contribute to the development and enhancement of technologies and solutions related to the Internet of Everything, providing a better understanding of its impacts on various communities and industries. According to Cisco's report, the IoE has generated a market value of $14.4 trillion for companies and industries globally by the year 2022, as depicted in Figure 3 [6]. Out of this amount, the potential highest stock value of 66%, equivalent to $9.5 trillion, has been generated through industry-specific transformations such as smart networks and intelligent buildings [7]. The remaining 34%, or $4.9 trillion, comes from cross-industry applications like remote work and travel prevention such as smart healthcare [8].

Fig. 3 Cisco's report on the global revenue of the Internet of Everything (IoE) by 2022

According to the GSMA Intelligence report, as shown in Figure 4, a 21% growth in stock value signifies a favorable opportunity for global companies to increase profits through the adoption of IoE technology. It is predicted that this figure will reach 30% by the year 2025 [9].

Fig. 4 Incremental Growth in Share Value through the Utilization of the Internet of Everything (IoE) [9]

The Internet of Everything encompasses four key elements consisting of all conceivable connections: People, Things, Processes, and Data [10]. In the Internet of Everything business model, people are considered end nodes connected via the Internet for sharing information and activities, as depicted in Figure 5.

$E:\اصفهان\IoE\1-.jpg$

Fig. 5 the Internet of Everything (IoE) Ecosystem

People, as end nodes connected through the internet, contribute to sharing information and activities. Examples include social networks, health and fitness sensors, and other human-related connections. Things encompass physical sensors, devices, actuators, stimulators, and more that generate data or receive data from other sources. Examples include smart thermostats and gadgets. Data refers to raw data that undergo processing and analysis, transforming into useful information. Processes involve using connections between data, things, and people to generate value. Examples include utilizing fitness equipment and social networks to promote health-related offers to customers. The IoE constitutes an end-to-end ecosystem of connections involving various technologies, processes, and concepts. Other categories such as the Internet of Humans, Digital Internet, IoT, communication technologies, and even the traditional Internet are subsets of the IoE.
