Abstract When the Future Internet is defined as a dynamic global network infrastructure, the Internet of Things (IoT), an integrated part of it, is viewed as one of the most important technologies. Distinct from former definition and applications of IoT and the IoT based on Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID), the current IoT means the interconnection of devices and appliances via the Internet. However, because the development of the IoT technologies varies, there is neither an unified standard nor a standardized interoperability to provide an unified network software architecture for the IoT. In this paper, we propose a method for integrating the data detected by sensors in the IoT-IMS communication platform with specifications, including Zigbee, Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), RFID and IEEE 1451, and converting the data to Sensor Be One Code (SBO Code), a coding format that supports all kinds of sensors. Through this system, the data gathered by different sensors can be unified to meet the IoT requirement. Keywords IoT

becomes very important. To meet user demand for network services, the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) keep making efforts in presenting a novel integrated infrastructure in response to future broadband services. Moreover, this demand has initiated the idea of the Next Generation Network (NGN) and the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) under the NGN framework [1]. In addition to the solutions for the next generation core networks, the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT) takes shape: RFID tags, sensors or QR code embedded in the objects are linked via the Internet to endow the objects with the intelligence or ability to communicate with human beings and other objects. Therefore, the IoT enables not only machine/ device/employee management/control, but also remote monitoring of home appliances and vehicles. To cope with such a trend, this paper focuses on the IoT-IMS based data sensing and communication technology. Based on the IoT-IMS communication platform, the Smart Client Platform gathers the data detected by different sensors (QRCode, RFID, Barcode and RuBee, for example), converts the data to Unique IDentifiers (UID) by EPC coding scheme, and writes the UID on smart tags. By this method, objects and devices can be easily interconnected v
