Second International Workshop on the Web of Things (WoT 2011)

Published:12 June 2011Publication History

ABSTRACT

The Web of Things community explores how to extend the Internet of Things vision to the World Wide Web. This requires to look beyond establishing mere connectivity, and address the specific issues of loose coupling, massive scalability and heterogeneity in the context of pervasive computing. Specifically, the goal of the second International Workshop on the Web of Things (WoT 2011) is to look at the problems and research issues that can be identified when thinking "out of the box" of most pervasive computing applications, which often assume a homogeneous and centrally managed infrastructure that supports some specific applications scenario. Looking at the Web level, it becomes necessary to consider new constraints and design issues. While certain scenarios might not map well to Web concepts, the opportunities and economies of scale available at Web scale make it very interesting to carefully examine how to eventually build a fully functioning and performant "Web of Things".
