Internet of Things (IoT) has become a fascinating word now a days and has sought the attention of the world entirely. IoT is a network of networks, containing physical objects(things) that are connected to the Internet and can be identified and globally queried. IoT can also be thought of as an advanced Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), where the networked sensor nodes sense the data and transmit continuously. So, it becomes an ultimate challenge to deal with the large amount of data that is being gathered. In this article, we have proposed an intelligent scheme for information gathering in IoT through agent based approach. The main contribution of our proposed research work is to design and develop an intelligent solution for information gathering in IoT. The proposed agent based information gathering scheme operational sequence is as follows: (1) Information sensing; (2) Information fetching from each (node) at device environment; (3) Information fetching from each (node) at user environment; (4) Storing the information into the Knowledge base(KB) avoiding redundant data. The proposed scheme validated by simulation. The scheme proposed performs better as compared to EDCMS (Efficient Data Collection using Mobile Sink) scheme in terms of information acquisition delay, gathering delay, packet delivery ratio, end-to-end delay and bandwidth utilization.
