In this context, each thing has its goal and different level of smartness. They autonomously cooperate to achieve their goals through inter-thing communication. This paper proposes the concept of Social Things, with the emphasis on IoT application enabler for autonomous cooperation of networked things. In this paper, the system achieves autonomous cooperation of Social Things by providing them with preset conditional statements, combinations of triggers and action, which are triggered based on information transfer via inter-thing communication. On this system, Social Things shall autonomously exchange information about each other and take action by using this information to execute functions. The system has an advantage in which it enables the possibility to code cooperative functions of Social Things with comparative ease. The biggest contribution is achieving cooperation of mascots and a bench as case studies. They represent cooperation among private and public things. We will report implementation details and an experiment to discuss ways to design autonomous things.","PeriodicalId":235252,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on the Internet of Things","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128337802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our system combines these sound samples into a melodic ambient rhythm that contains information on all the processes or variables that user is monitoring. We focus on continuous rather than binary information (e.g. \"monitoring progress status\" rather then \"new message received\"). We evaluate our system in a machine monitoring scenario focusing on 5 distinct machines/processes to monitor with 6 priority levels for each. 9 participants use our system to monitor these processes with an up to 92.44% detection rate, if several levels are combined. Participants had no previous experience with this or similar systems and had only 5-10 minute training session before the tests.","PeriodicalId":235252,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on the Internet of Things","volume":"112 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130020051","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Personal water consumption contributes significantly to this impact, but remains hard to quantify individually unless digital meters are installed. In this paper, we present a dual-sensing approach to retro-fit common water meters with a wireless sensor unit that is able to capture an individual's water usage, and digitally forward it over the home's WiFi network. Utilizing active infrared distance sensing or sensing magnetic flux, it is possible to measure water consumption with an accuracy below 0.1l on commonly installed meters. With a continuous power consumption (assuming a daily water consumption of 2 hours) of less than 20 mW, the system can be provide real-time feedback to home-owners, office workers and people sharing such a retro-fitted water supply.","PeriodicalId":235252,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on the Internet of Things","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117065849","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The approach brings the collaboration between on-site workers and remote experts to the next level: we do not only capture the on-site situation and visualize it for remote experts, but also enable experts to provide instructions via annotations and 3D-objects which are overlaid onto the on-site workers' screen. These objects are drawn and placed with a mouse cursor, or more intuitively through gesture input.","PeriodicalId":235252,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on the Internet of Things","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129998414","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Already today, mobile and wearable devices allow people to create rich logs of their daily experiences in the form of photos, videos, GPS traces, or even physiological data. This activity is often called \"lifelogging\", and has led to the so-called \"quantified self\" movement where people capture detailed traces of their everyday lives in order to better understand themselves. An interesting avenue to explore in this context is the possibility of capturing lifelog data for the sake of augmenting one's memory. Contemporary psychology theory suggests that captured experiences of daily events can be used to generate cues (hints) which, when reviewed, can improve subsequent long-term recall of these memories. However, limitations of on-body placement of wearable devices can yield poor quality data and restricts capture to a first-person perspective. The focus of this work is to enable the secure and automatic exchange of one's lifelog streams with both co-located peers and any available capture devices in an IoT infrastructure, in order to construct a more comprehensive representation of a previous experience, which can thus help one to create more effective cues. We present a privacy-aware architecture for this exchange and report on a proof-of-concept prototype implementation.","PeriodicalId":235252,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on the Internet of Things","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125404662","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In industrial environments, the optimization of whole production lines based on machine learning algorithms allow to generate huge business value. Still, one of the open challenges is how to process the collected data as close to the data sources as possible. To fill this gap, this paper presents an OpenTOSCA-based toolchain that is capable of automatically provisioning Apache Flink as a holistic analytics environment altogether with specialized machine learning algorithms. This stack can be deployed as close to the production line as possible to enable data driven optimization. Further, we demonstrate how the analytics stack can be modeled based on TOSCA to be automatically provisioned considering specific mock services to simulate machine metering in the development phase of the algorithms.","PeriodicalId":235252,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on the Internet of Things","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127158382","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
