Title : Tools, Languages, Methodologies for Representing Semantics on the Web of Things

Shikha Mehta, Sanju Tiwari, Patrick Siarry, M.A Jabbar

Aim of the book                   

The convergence of information and communication technologies has led to the exponential proliferation of data in the last few years. It is expected to escalate further with the growing usage of IoT devices. The Internet of Things involves integration of a huge number of distributed and heterogeneous entities.Th e main problem with the prevailing IoT applications is that devices have limited interoperability with each other as their data is based on proprietary formats and there are no standards to report interoperable IoT data. To enable the interoperability between heterogeneous devices, there is a need to develop supporting formal semantic representations and technologies with suitable levels of abstractions. This problem can be tackled using the technologies of Semantic web such as ontologies, semantic web services, annotations etc. Semantic web technologies are well suited to deal with the issue of interoperability of data generated by the devices already employed in real-life.

The integration of the Semantic Web with the Internet of Things has given a new vision that is Semantic web of Things(SWoT). Semantic web technologies have already shown their benefits in other domains than IoT. IoT interoperability is still in its early stages. It is expected that concepts, tools and technologies of semantic web may contribute in overcoming the limitations of IoT applications. The new paradigm of SWoT would provide knowledge based systems with great autonomic capability for information storage, management and discovery along with transparent access to information resources in various applications. The Semantic Web community plays a vital role when data interoperability and results integration are required. Semantic analytics is presented as an emerging trend to provide reasoning, derive relevant information from IoT data that helps to deduce new facts.

This book will focus on tools, technologies, frameworks, architectures and applications of semantic Web of Things(SWoT) to handle the issues and challenges posed in varied environments. The goal is to emphasize the usability and performance of these techniques in dealing with problems of emerging areas. The book aims to include submissions that present innovative techniques, cutting-edge systems and novel applications supported by experimental results that reflect the current advances in these domains.
