IoT Middleware for Water Management

An IoT Middleware Framework for Industrial Applications

Starting from the RFID and the wireless sensor networks, the Internet of connected things has attracted the attention of major IT companies and later, of the industrial environment that recognized the concept as one of their key axes for future growth and development. The implementation of IoT in the industrial environment raises some significant issues related to the diversity of fieldbuses, t...

An IoT based reference architecture for smart water management processes

Water is a vital resource for life, and its management is a key issue nowadays. Information and communications technology systems for water control are currently facing interoperability problems due to the lack of support of standardization in monitory and control equipment. This problem affects various processes in water management, such as water consumption, distribution, system identificatio...

A Context-Driven IoT Middleware Architecture

The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to an environment of ubiquitous sensing and actuation from devices connected to the web backend. IoT applications leverage contextual information about entities in the system for reasoning and actuation. These context-aware applications are difficult to scale to the large amount of heterogeneous data in the IoT, as the current state-of-the-art is black-box, m...

Revisiting Service-Oriented Architecture for the IoT: A Middleware Perspective

CHARIOT: Goal-driven Orchestration Middleware for Resilient IoT Systems

An emerging trend in Internet of Things (IoT) applications is to move the computation (cyber) closer to the source of the data (physical). This paradigm is often referred to as edge computing. If edge resources are pooled together they can be used as decentralized shared resources for IoT applications, providing increased capacity to scale up computations and minimize end-to-end latency. Managi...
