Item BETaaS platform - a Things as a Service environment for future M2M marketplaces(2015-02-23) Anggorojati, Bayu; Kyriazakos, Sofoklis; Prasad, Neeli; Vallati, Carlo; Mingozzi, Enzo; Tanganelli, Giacomo; Buonaccorsi, Novella; Valdambrini, Nicola; Martinez-Rodriguez, Belen; Nieto De-Santos, Francisco; Zonidis, Nikolaos; Labropoulous, George; Mamelli, Alessandro; Sommacampagna, Davide; Tecnalia Research & InnovationBuilding the Environment for Things as a Service (BETaaS) is a novel platform for the deployment and execution of contentcentric Machine-to-Machine (M2M) applications, which relies on a local cloud of gateways. BETaaS platform provides a uniform interface and services to map content with things in a context-aware manner. Deployment of services for the execution of applications is dynamic and takes into account the computational resources of the low-end physical devices used. To this aim, BETaaS platform is based on a suitable defined Internet of Things (IoT) model, allowing the integration of the BETaaS components within the future Internet environment. In this paper we present the BETaaS concept, the high level platform architecture and application scenarios that extend the state-of-the-art in M2M communications and open the horizon for future M2M marketplaces.Item BETaaS: A Platform for Development and Execution of Machine-to-Machine Applications in the Internet of Things: A Platform for Development and Execution of Machine-to-Machine Applications in the Internet of Things(2016-04-01) Vallati, Carlo; Mingozzi, Enzo; Tanganelli, Giacomo; Buonaccorsi, Novella; Valdambrini, Nicola; Zonidis, Nikolaos; Martinez-Rodriguez, Belen; Mamelli, Alessandro; Sommacampagna, Davide; Anggorojati, Bayu; Kyriazakos, Sofoklis; Prasad, Neeli; Nieto, Francisco Javier; Barreto, Oliver; Rodriguez, Oliver Barreto; Tecnalia Research & Innovation; BIGDATAThe integration of everyday objects into the Internet represents the foundation of the forthcoming Internet of Things (IoT). Such “smart” objects will be the building blocks of the next generation of applications that will exploit interaction between machines to implement enhanced services with minimum or no human intervention in the loop. A crucial factor to enable Machine-to-Machine (M2M) applications is a horizontal service infrastructure that seamlessly integrates existing IoT heterogeneous systems. The authors present BETaaS, a framework that enables horizontal M2M deployments. BETaaS is based on a distributed service infrastructure built on top of an overlay network of gateways that allows seamless integration of existing IoT systems. The platform enables easy deployment of applications by exposing to developers a service oriented interface to access things (the Things-as-a-Service model) regardless of the technology and the physical infrastructure they belong.
