Internet of Things Fundamentals: Architecture, Protocols, and Lifecycle
IoT Device Lifecycle
The IoT device lifecycle comprises the sequential phases that an IoT device goes through, from deployment to decommissioning. The key phases are:
- Deploy: The device is physically installed and configured in its working environment.
- Monitor: The device’s status, performance, and data output are continuously observed to detect anomalies or failures.
- Service: Maintenance operations are performed, such as firmware updates, repairs, or calibration, to ensure optimal functioning.
- Manage:

Important Risk Factors in Asset Pricing
Industry Factor
- FIndustry = RIndustry – RStocks: Stocks in the same industry are all exposed to industry-specific shocks (demand, prices, technology).
- This implies stocks in the same industry tend to have higher correlations with each other.
- Stocks in an industry will have a large beta with respect to that industry’s factor (BIndustry). Stocks in nearby industries will have moderate BIndustry, and stocks in unrelated industries will have zero BIndustry.

Animals are characterized by their ability to move (motility).
Stages of Animal Embryonic Development
The formation of tissues and organs begins with three primary germ layers:
- Endoderm: The inner layer, which forms the digestive organs.
- Ectoderm: The external layer, which forms the nervous system and external coatings (skin).
- Mesoderm: The intermediate layer, which forms muscles, bones, and circulatory systems.

Q.Explain the construction and working of Ruby laser with the help of energy level diagram
Ruby is a crystal of aluminum oxide Al2O3 in which chromium Cr3+ ions are added as impurity (0.5%).So its colour is pink. Ruby rod of 4cm in length and 0.5 cm in diameter is generally used. The end faces of rod are strictly made parallel, grounded and silver polished. The one end face is fully reflecting and other end is partially reflecting. A helical Xenon flash tube is surrounded the ruby rod with high voltage
