Abstract

A mutual interaction between the real, the digital and the virtual worlds in the Future Internet networked society provides a fertile playground for IoT-related research and innovation. This conceptual view enables enterprises to separate concerns and be able to define better strategies on how to act, react, plan and optimize their activities. Nowadays, business process and specific technologies can already support each stage of process implementation. However, none is focused on this conceptual division provided by the IoT advances. Representing and implementing the interactions between the three worlds is achieved by means of interoperable models and tools where business objectives can be aligned with software applications and services at the single enterprise or network level. This paper presents a model-driven approach and a tool to support the modelling and instantiation of the IoT-enabled liquid and sensing processes in an inter-world osmosis style.
