Middleware architecture towards higher-level descriptions of (genuine) internet-of-things applications
Thomás Marques Brandão Reis, MARCELO FERREIRA MORENO · 2019
The growing evolution of mobile devices and the variety of new sensors and actuactors allow applications to achieve higher potential in an Internet-of-Things environment. However, IoT application developers faces up to market fragmentation, proprietary solutions and lack of interoperability, not only in hardware, but also in development tools. With a vision that IoT resources should be seen as single machine, independently of their nature, underlying technologies and geographical distribution, in this paper we propose a distributed middleware architecture for IoT applications. Introducing concepts not yet found in similar proposals, this effort represents a step towards the conception of higher-level descriptions of (genuine) IoT applications.
