Synchronization abstractions and separation of concerns as key aspects to the interoperability in IoT [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   3 downloads  
In this paper we argue that synchronization abstractions could be used as the glue that tie together the interactions between `things' in an IoT environment. We also support that this is analog to what is used in distributed multimedia applications. Using this argument, we propose in this paper that IoT solutions, protocols and applications should benefit from standardized multimedia tools like specification languages and corresponding middleware support platforms as a means for harmonization and interoperability. Additionally, we extend our recent contributions in favor of a separation of concerns in multimedia systems, in which synchronization support can operate independently of other features. More specifically, the main contribution of this paper is the discussions about how media synchronization challenges can enroll the Internet of Things research area, where distributed sensors and actuators are specified as media objects and can be related to usual hypermedia objects, all synchronized in time and space, in what we call the “Synchronism of Things”.
