Web Services for the Internet of Things - A feasibility study

Applications interoperability for the Internet of Things is one of the major research challenges today. This Ph.D. work proposes a methodology for the adaptation of web services for applications interoperability in the Internet of Things domain. The challenge of using web services in the IoT is analyzed and a solution is proposed in the form of an open, standards based methodology advocating the suitability even for resource constrained environments. The contributions are supported by peer reviewed publications in international conferences and journals. Further, the applicability and results of the Thesis is evident by an award received, researchers/developers citations, and expect that public and private contracts and projects consider the proposal.
