Web intent based service mashups for IoT platform

Abstract

This paper demonstrates service control for IoT gadget platform by using web intent. The difference from legacy device-connected service is that it follows the Web's virtue loose coupling of service components. For loose coupling of these components based on the web technologies, it requires light-weight service logic for limited devices like sensor. To support loose coupling service components, proposed method manipulates Web intent which is a framework for web-based inter-application communication and service discovery. In order to show the web intent based service mashups, a meeting room reservation scenario using Google Calendar is demonstrated.
