Abstract

With the development of Internet of Things (IoT), large-scale of resources and applications atop them emerge. However, most of existing efforts are “silo” solutions, there is a tight-coupling between the device and the application. The paradigm for IoT and its corresponding infrastructure are required to move away from isolated solutions towards cooperative models. Recent works have focused on applying Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) to IoT service provisioning. Other than the traditional services of cyberspace which are oriented to a two-tuple problem domain, IoT services are faced with a three-tuple problem domain of user requirement, cyberspace and physical space. One challenge of existing works is lacking of efficient mechanism to on-demand provisioning the sensing information in a loosely-coupled, decentralized way and then dynamically coordinate the relevant services to rapidly respond to changes in the physical world. Another challenge is how to systematically and effectively access (plug) the heterogeneous devices without intrusive changing. This paper proposes a service provisioning platform which enables to access heterogeneous devices and expose device capabilities as light-weighted service, and presents an event-based message interaction mode to facilitate the asynchronous, on-demand sharing of sensing information in distributed, loosely-coupled IoT environment. It provides the basic infrastructure for IoT application pattern: inner-domain high-degree autonomy and inter-domain dynamic coordination. The practicability of platform is validated by experimental evaluations and a District Heating Control and Information System (DHCIS).
