Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) refer to a broad spectrum of data, information, knowledge, products, devices, resources and services about whom descriptions of sufficient depth and precision should be published and made available in geographically distributed business networks in order maximize the benefits to industry and business. The stakeholders of IoT should have access to a user-centric, and service-centric framework so that they may query, discover, share, allocate, and exchange the IoTs, in order to achieve their business goals and maximize the economic value. This is possible if the IoTs are available, reliable, secure, and safe in all contexts. An added efficiency is achieved by introducing context-awareness for the IoTs in order that the IoTs for which accurate descriptions are available can be obtained at the right time, for the right price, and at the right location. In this paper, a framework meeting these objectives is proposed. Contexts and context-awareness, and trustworthiness issues are rigorously discussed and integrated with IoT descriptions.
