Web of Things Interoperability for the Arrowhead Framework

Defined as the ability for a system to exchange data with another system and consume data from another system, interoperability is a property that most distributed system developers tend to satisfy when designing new systems. In the IoT domain, the WoT W3C standard has been proposed to enable interoperability between devices and platforms. The Arrowhead framework has been implemented to ease IoT automation with the objective to enable IoT interoperability in this domain. This paper discusses how the W3C Web of Things standard can help the IoT automation framework Arrowhead in achieving the interoperability.
