Abstract

One of the main ongoing standardization efforts of the Internet of Things (IoT) at the application layer is the Web of Things (WoT), which aims to enable interoperability using already existing standards. However, keeping up the design and implementation of IoT applications with the exponentially increasing number of devices being interconnected is costly in workforce resources. Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) approaches increase the level of abstraction using models, and allowing to reuse design and code. This lowers the use of resources for implementing solutions seamlessly. This is why in this work we implement a MDE approach based on the WoT, allowing easy WoT-based device generation. Besides, automated code generation is applied to reduce manual tasks even further. Using the Eclipse Modelling Framework (EMF) and its associated plugins, we provide a way of describing models graphically and generate the code automatically, reducing development and testing time.
