Towards A Taxonomy for Ranking Knowledge in Internet of Everything
Viviane Cunha Farias da Costa, Luiz Felipe Oliveira, Jano de Souza · 2021
The paradigm of the Internet of Everything (IoE) adds value to Internet of Things (IoT) in connections among people, processes, data, and things. However, knowledge creation process in IoE context still requires concerns to what extent connected sensors and actuators collaborates in value created and outcomes of IoE applications. This study focuses on the requirement and design approach for identification of critical knowledge within IoE domain though a knowledge ranking approach. Existing solutions for semantic definitions and taxonomies in IoE are reviewed for this purpose. In addition, this work proposes the use of a knowledge-based taxonomy as the main driver for ranking knowledge in smart sensors as IoE enablers with a qualitative approach of its dimensions. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work that comprehensively integrate a taxonomy concerning ranking knowledge in IoE applications.
