| * **Transport Layer (Internet Core Network):** This layer transmits data between the perception and fog layers and the cloud data centre. It is the backbone of IoT communication, leveraging various networking technologies such as wireless networks (e.g., Wi-Fi, LTE, 5G), wired connections (e.g., Ethernet), and even optical networks for high-speed data transfer. The transport layer ensures reliable and secure data flow, using protocols that safeguard data integrity and reduce transmission errors. This layer's efficiency directly impacts the overall responsiveness and performance of the IoT network. | * **Transport Layer (Internet Core Network):** This layer transmits data between the perception and fog layers and the cloud data centre.

| * **Cloud Data Center layer:** The cloud data centre layer represents the centralised processing hub where advanced data analytics, complex computation, and long-term data storage occur. It can handle vast amounts of data from IoT devices across the network. The cloud layer employs powerful data analytics tools, machine learning algorithms, and big data technologies to extract insights and generate actionable outcomes. For instance, data collected from smart grids can be analysed to optimise energy distribution, while data from medical sensors can support remote patient monitoring and predictive healthcare interventions. The processed information is returned to users or devices to facilitate informed decision-making or automated physical responses (control of physical systems). | * **Cloud Data Center layer:** The cloud data centre layer represents the centralised processing hub where advanced data analytics, complex computation, and long-term data storage occur.
