3. How to build interoperable IoT applications?
3
Innovative
applications
=> Interoperability on data rather than protocols

4. • NeON:
– Lifecycle Support for Networked Ontologies
– Ontology Methodology
• Methontology
• DILIGENT
• On-To-Knowledge
• Etc.
=> Take inspiration to build methodologies
for semantic interoperability
State of the Art: Ontology methodologies

5. State of the Art: IERC AC4 Semantic Interoperability
for IoT
• Syntactical Interoperability
 Heterogeneity of data formats (e.g, JSON, XML, RDF)
• Technical Interoperability
 Heterogeneity of devices
• Semantic Interoperability
 Meaning of the information exchanged (e.g., t, temp,
temperature, heterogeneity among ontologies)
• Organizational Interoperability
 Structure of the knowledge (e.g., web services)

6. State of the Art: Main Challenges
=> How to provide a methodology to
ensure semantic interoperability for
IoT and smart cities?

7. SEG.3 Methodology: Functional framework

8. SEG.3 Methodology: Conceptual Framework

9. SEG.3 Methodology:
Semantic Interoperability for IoT and Smart Cities

10. Interoperable
semantic-based
IoT applications
Interoperable
IoT knowledge
base
Interoperable
reasoning
Use Case 1: Machine-to-Machine
Measurement (M3) Framework
