International audienceIn the era of Industry 4.0, digital manufacturing is evolving into smart manufacturing. This evolution impacts companies in three main areas: organization, people, and technologies. This chapter analyzes the Internet of Things (IoT) and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS)—key technologies transforming the physical world into a digitalized physical world. IoT and CPS provide factories with sensing capabilities, perform data and context capture and allow them to act/react to optimize the value chain. We survey the recent state-of-the-art development of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)—also known as IoT and CPS in the context of Industry 4.0, from a protocol, architecture, and standard point-of-view. We also explore key challenges and future research directions for extensive industrial adoption of these technologies
