We evaluate the results of this prototyping activity, and assess the strengths and weaknesses of this approach, and the benefits of using the FIAM approaches with IoT and Machine to Machine (M2M) scenarios.

+# Summary
+
+Mosquitto provides standards compliant server and client implementations of the
+[MQTT](http://mqtt.org/) messaging protocol. MQTT uses a publish/subscribe
+model, has low network overhead and can be implemented on low power devices
+such microcontrollers that might be used in remote Internet of Things sensors.
+As such, Mosquitto is intended for use in all situations where there is a need
+for lightweight messaging, particularly on constrained devices with limited
+resources.
+
+The Mosquitto project is a member of the [Eclipse Foundation](http://eclipse.org/)
+
+There are three parts to the project.
+
+* The main `mosquitto` server
+* The `mosquitto_pub` and `mosquitto_sub` client utilities that are one method of communicating with an MQTT server
+* An MQTT client library written in C, with a C++ wrapper
+
+Mosquitto allows research directly related to the MQTT protocol itself, such as
+comparing the performance of MQTT and the Constrained Application Protocol
+(CoAP) [@Thangavel_2014] or investigating the use of OAuth in MQTT
+[@Fremantle_2014].  Mosquitto supports other research activities as a useful
+block for building larger systems and has been used to evaluate MQTT for use in
+Smart City Services [@Antonic_2015], and in the development of an environmental
+monitoring system [@Bellavista_2017]. Mosquitto has also been used to support
+research less directly as part of a scheme for remote control of an experiment
+[@Schulz_2014]. 
+
+Outside of academia, Mosquitto is used in other open source projects such as
+the [openHAB](http://www.openhab.org/) home automation project and
+[OwnTracks](http://owntracks.org/), the personal location tracking project, and
+has been integrated into commercial products.
