An enterprise IoT concentrator can receive, from a first community IoT concentrator, first data corresponding to a security issue detected by at least one of a first plurality of devices located within a first physical environment, wherein the first plurality of devices are communicatively linked to one another within a first device domain that is a member of a first device community which includes the first community IoT concentrator. Responsive to receiving the first data, the enterprise IoT concentrator can process the first data to generate second data corresponding to the security issue. The second data can be configured to be processed by a second community IoT concentrator to initiate at least one device located within a second physical environment to perform a specific act that enhances security in the second physical environment. The enterprise IoT concentrator can communicate the second data to the second community IoT concentrator.

Leveraging an internet of things to initiate a physical object to perform a specific act that enhances security

Monitoring oral intake of consumable items may include aggregating, using a processor, oral intake information for a user from a plurality of devices belonging to a same device domain of the user in real time and comparing, using the processor, the oral intake information with a user profile of the user. An instruction for a selected device of the plurality of devices may be generated, using the processor, according to the comparing. The instruction may be sent to the selected device, using the processor. The selected device may execute the instruction.

Monitoring and status detection for consumable items

Natural language processing is performed on social media system posts by a plurality of users of a reading community. Corresponding analytical data is generated. Respective interests of the plurality of users can be determined by processing the analytical data. A present location of at least two users of the reading community can be monitored. Responsive to determining that the users are presently located within a pre-determined distance of each other, respective alerts can be presented to those users. Each alert can indicate that the users are presently located within the pre-determined distance of each other, indicate a listing of content being read by the reading community, and indicate a shared interest of the users.

Enhanced content interest and consumption communities

Embodiments of the present invention provide methods, computer program products, and systems for enriching and customizing one or more portions of textual content. Embodiments of the present invention analyze one or more portions of the textual content and customize the textual content based on preferences of a user interacting with the textual content. Embodiments of the present invention can present customized or original textual content to users requesting textual content.

A first community Internet of Things (IoT) concentrator can receive first data corresponding to an interaction of a user with at least one of a first plurality of physical objects, the first plurality of physical objects communicatively linked to one another within a first device domain. Responsive to receiving the first data corresponding to the interaction of the user with the at least one of the first of the plurality of physical objects, the first community IoT concentrator or a second IoT concentrator can initiate, based at least in part on the first data, at least one of a second plurality of physical objects to perform a specific act that enhances an interaction of the user with the at least one of the second plurality of physical objects. The second plurality of physical objects can be communicatively linked to one another within a second device domain.

Leveraging an internet of things to initiate a physical object to perform a specific act that enhances an interaction of a user with the physical object

Embodiments of the present invention provide methods, computer program products, and systems for leveraging social networks in physical gatherings. Embodiments of the present invention generate profiles for participants at the physical gathering. Embodiments of the present invention can enrich the participants experience at the physical gathering by providing information to the participant, based on the profile for the participant.
