Standardization of Web technologies and its solution for IoT interoperability 講者: Atsushi Shimono 語言: English

World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) is an international community to lead the Web to its full potential by creating technical standards and guidelines, that undergrid the infrastructure for modern businesses leveraging the Web, in the open, provided for free, and under a Royalty-Free basis W3C Patent Policy.

W3C announced two Web of Things (WoT) specifications as new official Recommendations in April 2020, enabling easy integration across Internet of Things (IoT) platforms and applications. The WoT specifications have been developed to define an abstract architecture, a common data format for describing IoT devices and services, and several building blocks that increase interoperability for IoT applications and reduce integration efforts and costs, and two baseline specifications were published as Recommendation. "WoT Architecture" describes the overall Web of Things conceptual framework, and "WoT Thing Description (TD)" is the descriptive model of Thing and can be considered as the entry point of Thing (or device). There are already several reference implementations available, such as Eclipse Thingweb node-wot as a reference of WoT in Node.js, WoT Thing Description support in Node Generator project of Node-RED to simplify the development of Node-RED nodes as WoT capable devices, WoTPy in Python, and so on.

Also, W3C having recently renewed the WoT working group charter for the second generation to expand the scope and depth, such as to cover minimum-effort onboarding of Things in a secure way, vocabulary support for new protocols and additional standard metadata such as location or device manufacturer, and so on.

In this talk, overview of Web standardization activities and WoT, simple sample of WoT, and the future are covered.
