Fwd: IoT-Lite Ontology (Acknowledged Member Submission)

Dear all,

I'm forwarding the formal announcement to W3C members of our publication 
of the IoT Lite Ontology that Payam, Kerry and others have been working on.

This is a 'Member Submission' - i.e. work that one or more W3C members 
have done and brought to our attention for possible future 
standardisation, or input to other efforts. Dave Raggett (Team contact 
for the Web of Things Interest Group) and I are suggesting that this WG 
and the WoT IG consider reviewing and publishing the IoT Lite Ontology 
as a Note.

I see it as a profile of SSN. If published alongside the W3C Rec 
Track/OGC Standards Track SSN Ontology, it could help to broaden the 
appeal??

Please see that as a suggestion only - it is for the WG to decide what 
to do within its charter. All I would ask is that Ed takes the lead in 
the discussion since Kerry is one of the authors of the IoT Lite work.

Phil.

Abstract:
----------
IoT-Lite ontology is a lightweight ontology to represent Internet of
Things (IoT) resources, entities and services. IoT-Lite is an
instantiation of the SSN ontology. The lightweight allow the
representation and use of IoT platforms without consuming excessive
processing time when querying the ontology. However it is also a meta
ontology that can be extended in order to represent IoT concepts in a
more detailed way in different domains. It also can be combined with
ontologies representing IoT data streams such as SAO ontology. Following
best practices in ontology engineering iot-lite is meant to be used with
a quantity taxonomy, such as qu-taxo, that allows the discovery and
interoperability of IoT resources in heterogeneous platforms using a
common vocabulary.
