DataTweet: An architecture enabling data-centric IoT services

Abstract

This work proposes a data driven IoT architecture to mitigate the fragmentation and data silos in consumer IoT ecosystem. IoT data cycle is explored to understand data transformation from generation to processing, storage and dissemination. We have developed a framework called DataTweet focusing on data cycle based IoT services. The DataTweet architecture is presented along with its subsystems, services, requirements and common service functions necessary to implement the services. The main novelty of DataTweet is in creating a ubiquitous consumer data service for transmitting short messages to any computing platforms to generate actionable intelligence that is disseminated to consumers.
