A Novel Cognitive IoT Gateway Framework: Towards a Holistic Approach to IoT Interoperability

摘要

While IoT devices and networks continue to scale in volume and heterogeneity across multiple application domains, they remain unconnected and the data generated from them remain largely inaccessible across the multiple application domains. This is due to a lack of holistic interoperability in the IoT enterprise. Various approaches have been used to address IoT interoperability but each approach only addresses different levels of interoperability in isolation. This paper presents a novel, hybrid approach to IoT interoperability that introduces cognition into the IoT gateway. Thus, the gateway, as a cognitive dynamic system, provides for holistic interoperability in an integrated manner.
