## Abstract (arXiv)

The paper introduces the Internet of Agentic Things (IoAT), an architectural framework that integrates agentic AI, IoT, cyber-physical systems, Physical AI, edge computing, and digital twins into a unified closed-loop orchestration framework. The proposed architecture consists of cloud, edge/fog, and physical IoT layers connected through autonomous AI agents that perceive, reason, coordinate, and actuate across distributed cyber-physical environments. The paper formalizes IoAT as a coupled workflow-control problem with nested strategic and tactical decision making using a hylomorphic dynamic programming framework that links agentic planning with physical execution. Smart-building orchestration is presented as a representative use case, and key research challenges related to safety, security, governance, resilience, and trustworthy deployment are discussed.
