Study Notes
Linked Data and RDF(S)
- Large-scale IoT applications face challenges related to data overload, lack of interoperability, and poor real-time resource awareness.
- The Sensor Web Enablement initiative defines standard interfaces.
- The initiative aims to make sensors and their data discoverable, accessible, and usable over the Web.
- Sensor Web aims to support real-time situation awareness for timely responses to events.
- Semantic Sensor Web uses ontologies to allow automated reasoning about sensor data.
- Examples of automated reasoning include understanding terms like "soon" or "dangerously high."
- Ontologies enable knowledge sharing and reuse by formally representing relationships and concepts.
RDF (Resource Description Framework)
- RDF represents resources and their relationships as triples.
- RDF is visualized as a graph, with subjects in ovals, objects/literals in rectangles, and predicates as directed edges.
- RDF lacks support for constraints or advanced relations.
OWL (Web Ontology Language)
- OWL extends RDF to support richer semantics, such as domain/range constraints and transitive/inverse properties.
- Protege is a tool for creating ontologies.
- OpenSesame is a tool for storing/querying RDF/OWL data.
- These tools support semantic web development.
SSN (Semantic Sensor Network) Ontology
- SSN is based on OWL and describes sensors, their capabilities, observations, and deployments.
- SSN is organized into ten modules with 41 concepts and 39 object properties.
- SSN covers aspects like accuracy, operating ranges, and deployment lifetimes of sensors.
Linked Data
- Automatic IoT data processing requires common semantic agreements and descriptive frameworks for data, devices, and environments.
- Semantic annotations should exist at multiple layers, including device ("Things"), network (e.g., SSN ontology), and business process levels.
- Semantic Web technologies (e.g., RDF, OWL) are essential for describing sensors, actuators, and network components.
- Managing and updating these semantic descriptions is challenging due to the dynamic nature of IoT environments.
- Linked Data connects individual data items to enable semantic queries and inference across platforms.
Linked Data Principles
- Use URIs to name data.
- Enable HTTP access to URIs.
- Provide meaningful information via standards like RDF and SPARQL.
- Include links to other URIs for connectivity.
- Linked data fosters interoperability, reuse, and integration of diverse datasets.
DBpedia
- DBpedia extracts structured data from Wikipedia
- DBpedia supports semantic navigation.
- Linking sensor data to Web resources allows integration of physical and virtual worlds.
- Integration of physical and virtual worlds enables smarter environments, business intelligence, and automated decision-making.
