ABSTRACT
The increasing penetration of the real world with embedded and globally networked sensors enables the formation of a Web of Things (WoT), where high-level state information derived from sensors is embedded into Web representations of real-world entities (e.g. places, objects, creatures). A key service for the WoT is searching for entities which exhibit a certain dynamic state at the time of the query, which is a challenging problem due to the dynamic nature of the sought state information and due to the potentially huge scale of the WoT. Below we report on our initial efforts to construct such a search engine and the underlying WoT.

ThingSeek: A Crawler and Search Engine for the Internet of Things
SIGIR '16: Proceedings of the 39th International ACM SIGIR conference on Research and Development in Information RetrievalThe rapidly growing paradigm of the Internet of Things (IoT) requires new search engines, which can crawl heterogeneous data sources and search in highly dynamic contexts. Existing search engines cannot meet these requirements as they are designed for ...
