物联网中间件研究的系统综述
Towards Web of Things Middleware: A Systematic Review
摘要:
Web技术的进步为物联网(IoT)提供了向物联网(WoT)迈进的机会。通过重用Web技术来创建一个整体环境来控制、监视和组合智能对象的趋势越来越明显,一个成熟的WoT架构最终在四个层中出现,成为物联网中间件的解决方案。虽然WoT架构有助于解决物联网在架构或服务方面的需求,但这种解决方案的有效性不确定,以满足物联网中间件的目标。在这一领域的大多数调查和相关评论只是单独调查物联网中间件和WoT,从而报告了各种中间件或WoT模型上的一些新技术或协议。本文以系统文献综述(SLR)为研究方法论,对物联网与物联网学科的共同领域进行了全面的综述。该调查对不同类型的物联网中间件和物联网架构进行了分类,以分别说明其需求和特征。因此,WoT需求可以通过比较和分析物联网中间件需求和WoT特征来分类。这项研究大量回顾了现有的学术和工业贡献,以选择潜在的平台(或框架),并根据拟议的WoT要求对其进行评估。作为这项调查的结果,WoT架构的优点和缺点,作为物联网中间件,提出。最后,本研究试图为WoT架构开辟新的视野,使研究人员能够挖掘WoT技术在物联网中的作用。
英文摘要:
Advancements of the Web technology provide this opportunity for Internet of Things (IoT) to take steps towards Web of Things (WoT). By increasing trend of reusing Web techniques to create a monolithic environment to control, monitor, and compose the smart objects, a mature WoT architecture is finally emerged in four layers to be a solution for IoT-middleware. Although WoT architecture facilitates addressing requirements of IoT in architectural or service aspects, but the effectiveness of this solution is indeterminate to meet IoT-middleware objectives. The most surveys and related reviews in this field just investigate IoT-middleware and WoT separately and thereby, report some new technologies or protocols on various middlewares or WoT models. In this paper a comprehensive survey is proposed on common area of IoT and WoT disciplines by leveraging Systematic Literature Review (SLR) as research methodology. This survey classifies variant types of IoT-middleware and WoT architecture to specifies their requirements and characteristics, respectively. Hence, WoT requirements could be categorized by comparing and analyzing IoT-middleware requirements and WoT characteristics. This research heavily reviews existing academic and industrial contributions to select potential platforms (or frameworks) and assess them against proposed WoT requirements. As a result of this survey, strengths and weaknesses of WoT architecture, as a IoT-middleware, are presented. Finally, this research attempts to open new horizon for the WoT architecture to enable researchers to dig role of WoT technologies in the IoT.
