A Lightweight Platform Implementation for Internet of Things

초록

As the number of IoT devices explodes, we observe numerous IoT platforms which enables us to build applications, manage, and integrate things connected to the Internet. We identify key technologies embedded in contemporary IoT platforms as follows: virtualization, restful API, database for history, visualization, and mashup. Most IoT platforms are heavy-weight in terms of software or hardware and often require proprietary protocols. In this paper, we introduce a lightweight implementation of IoT platform which can be easily built from off-the-shelf components and windows OS, still realizing all the above key technologies as found in most heavy-weight IoT platforms. In addition, we make our IoT platform smart by adding context-awareness.
