Gestion de contexte multi-échelle pour l'Internet des objets

This article gives an overview of a software architecture able to support the multiscale distribution of context information over the Internet of Things. We first present some specific challenges that must be addressed by this new generation of middleware, like distributed push and pull communications, multiscale awareness, and both quality of information and privacy requirements and guarantees. Then we give the vision of the INCOME project to answer these requirements by providing an ad hoc context distribution infrastructure and a framework for its autonomic deployment.
