Over the past few years, protocols, implementations, and optimal uses and the use of internet of things have grown dramatically. Among the communication protocols, the COAP is the most distinctive one. The protocol, has the ability of better and lighter performance in restricted resource networks and devices. There are a lot of implementations about COAP each has its own features and supplies. So, selecting the factors having effects on improvement of COAP protocol and also the implementation method suitable for the features of each of these supplies is important. So, optimal communication protocol which reduces traffic load is highly important and is now, of the main challenges in the IOT industry and smart houses which, in recent years, has attracted many researchers’ attention. This study provides some features and an analytical comparison of many variables influencing the optimal performance of COAP. The present study has been conducted to answer the main question of the study: does the use of COAP have any effects on reducing energy consumption in the smart houses? The study has been conducted in the Uromieh Culture House and while studying the effective factors or important variables in improving the COAP performance, has tested the accuracy or inaccuracy of the hypotheses such as the main hypothesis of the study that there is a meaningful and positive relationship between using the COAP protocol and reducing energy consumption in organizations. Finally, a new approach will be introduced in this research causing improvement in the COAP efficiency. Then, its performance will be analyzed regarding reducing in energy consumption, delay in sending data, reducing memory and CPU consumption, the amount of information transmitted in each communication, firmness in failure and technological innovation. The present study aims at identifying the effect of using the COAP protocol on reducing energy consumption in the smart houses, Uromieh Culture House and ranking the factors influencing the implementation of performance improvement based on the smart houses. The paradigm of the present study is interpretive. In terms of purpose, the present study is of applied kind, in terms of data collection is of pluralistic one, in terms of procedure is of field and library one, in terms of data analysis method is a descriptive study and finally, in terms of time is a cross-sectional one. The statistical sample of the present study’s statistical society includes 49 people of the staff of the Uromieh Culture House who participate in the study as experts and professionals in IOT and new and emerging technologies of the smart houses fields. The results of data analysis show that the most effective factor in implementing the COAP protocol successfully on reducing energy consumption in the smart houses is to reduce energy consumption and the innovative technology factor has the least effect on successful implementation of the protocol.
