This Third International Workshop on the Web of Things (WoT 2012) will be held in conjunction with the tenth international conference on pervasive computing (Pervasive 2012) in Newcastle, UK, on June 19th.
Description:
Continuing the successful Web of Things workshop series, this workshop aims at further exploring the use of technologies and principles at the core of the Web to provide methods for a seamless integration of physical devices. In particular, our goal is to foster discussion on systems towards a real-time Web of Things and the discovery, search, and composition of services provided by Web-enabled things. The "Web of Things" workshop solicits contributions in all areas related to the Web of Things, and we invite application designers to think beyond sensor networks and Web applications, and to imagine, design, build, evaluate and share their thoughts and visions on what the future of the Web and networked devices will be.
The Web of Things workshop solicits contributions in all areas related to the Web of Things. It aims at exploring the use of principles and technologies at the core of the Web such as Representational State Transfer (REST), syndication (e.g., Atom), and real-time Web technologies (e.g., HTML5 Web Sockets) for providing access to pervasive and ubiquitous computing services and also solicits contributions related to the Web-based composition of things and physical mashups. We invite application designers to think beyond sensor networks and Web applications, and to imagine, design, build, evaluate, and share their thoughts and visions on what the future of the Web and networked devices will be.
Relevant topics include - but are not limited to - the following:
- Discovery and look-up for things and their services on the Web
- Web-based things composition and physical mashups
- Real-time communication with physical objects (e.g., syndication, streaming, instant messaging, Web push)
- Human-things interaction models and paradigms
- Security, access control, and sharing of physical things on the Web
- Application of Web tools and techniques for the physical world (e.g., REST, HTML5, caching, cloud services, social networks)
- Applications of the Web of Things (smart homes/cities/factories)
- Deployments and evaluations of Web of things systems
- Business opportunities for the Web of Things
