Abstract
The Semantic Web of Things (SWoT) integrates knowledge representation and reasoning techniques originally devised for the Semantic Web into Internet of Things architectures, in order to provide more advanced service/resource management and discovery. This paper proposes a novel SWoT framework, enabling collaborative discovery of sensors and actuators in pervasive contexts. It is based on a backward-compatible extension of the Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP), supporting advanced semantic matchmaking via non-standard inference services. The proposed mobile agent is able to discover devices and share smartphone embedded sensors in a peer-to-peer fashion. Efficient data stream mining is also integrated to analyze raw data gathered from the environment and detect high-level events, annotating them with machineunderstandable metadata. Finally, a case study about cooperative environmental risk monitoring and prevention in Hybrid Sensor and Vehicular Networks is presented. Experimental performance results on a real testbed assess the approach.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
