An Approach to Integrate IoT Systems with No-Web Interfaces

The introduction of new technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) raises important problems that must be solved. One of these problems is the interoperability caused by the heterogeneity of the protocols and platforms. In this context, the web of Things is an architectural solution to this problem, because it takes advantage of Web technologies as a means to guarantee interoperability. Another significant challenge is developing and maintaining multiple variants of the applications to support different platforms. For this, Model Driven Engineering (MDE) can help in solving the current problem of developing and maintaining separate application variants. This is because MDE makes use of models to raise the level of abstraction in order to avoid addressing the details of the platforms and speed up the software development process by allowing the design and reuse of the code, and increasing the software quality. In this sense, this document describes a methodology based on models and services for the interoperability of emerging technologies that have a fundamental role in the emergence of the IoT. The result of this research is a concrete and abstract syntax along with a Model-to-Text transformation, to automatically generate software artifacts for IoT systems, thereby achieving the interoperability of mobile technologies, DTV, controllers, REST services and service coordination.
