Abstract:
The Physical Semantic Web is proposed as a paradigm enhancing the Google Physical Web approach for the Internet of Things. It allows semantic annotations to be associated to beacons instead of trivial identifiers, in order to enable more powerful expressiveness in human-things and things-things interactions. This paper presents a general framework for the Physical Semantic Web, based on machine-understandable annotations of physical resources and novel logic-guided resource discovery ca- pabilities. Possible application scenarios are outlined to highlight the benefits of induced enhancements and the effectiveness of theoretical solutions.
