Sensor Ontology as a Basis for Generating Sensors Code in a Semi-Automatic Way

With advances in technology, more and more smart devices emerge. With the increasing number of smart devices, problems would show up gradually. Most devices in the market are not interoperable. It’s not easy to create powerful services based on various non-interoperable devices. That’s time- consuming. In addition to the interoperability, there are many protocols and every protocol would have their own advantage in the specific domain. Thus, it’s not easy to emerge a dominant protocol which most manufacturers would follow. To solve these problems, we develop the Interoperation system. Interoperation system leverages the code generator to generate the adapter code of device and provide the common interface for accessing the functionalities of the device. Thus, a client could control different kinds of devices with the same interface. Besides, Interoperation system supports various mainstream protocols. That is to say, a client can use our system to control devices of different protocols with the same interface. This makes client easier to create powerful services through device service composition.
