Thanks for sharing. You may also want to look at W3C’s work on data sets and abstraction layers for services. The Data Exchange Working Group [1] is refining the existing DCAT Recommendation to make it easier to discover and interoperate with catalogs of data sets published the Web. The Web of Things Interest and Working Groups [2] are focusing on enabling open markets of services through an abstraction layer for things that stand for physical or abstract entities. Both activities reduce the effort, cost and risk for dealing with the diversity of approaches, standards and technologies.
