Abstract
We propose a software platform which pairs context awareness with over-the-top (OTT) service deployment. By augmenting OTT services with local context information, we allow them to react upon various types of changes in the environment in which they are being deployed. This lets service providers offer more personalized and fine-grained applications, while making use of a third-party infrastructure, via the OTT paradigm. Through UML diagrams, we describe the architecture of the proposed service platform. By means of a detailed illustrative scenario, the components involved are further clarified. In addition, in order to prove the feasibility of the architecture, a prototype implementation was developed and deployed on a large wireless sensor network test bed. Using a set of benchmarks, we identified the strengths and weaknesses of both test bed and prototype.
