Abstract
The Linked Data Platform (LDP) W3C Recommendation defined resource management primitives for HTTP only, pushing into the background not-negligible use cases related to Web of Things (WoT) scenarios where HTTP-based communication and infras- tructures are unfeasible. This paper proposes a mapping of the LDP specification for Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) in order to publish Linked Data on the WoT. A general translation of LDP-HTTP requests and responses is provided, as well as a fully comprehensive framework for HTTP-to-CoAP proxying. The theoretical work is corroborated by an experimental campaign using the W3C Test Suite for LDPI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
