What is a thing of the IoT? Aspiration of things narrated by a 'Thing Interpreter'
Jan 15, 2015
The vision of connecting every networked computer with each other created the Internet we use today from a research project, which got possible because of the open Internet standard and a tangible architecture. In the chaos of buzzwords and marketing campaigns, the Interoperating between connected devices, Things, has been compromise, suffocating the growth of the Internet of Things domain. The interoperability between wearable devices and other IoT components can lead to development of high intelligence applications enabling non-hardware entities to be part of the wearable domain. We propose a semantic web assisted IoT architecture, which implements standard data models described in relationship graphs. The graph based data structure enables reasoning and intelligence at the machine level laying down road for innovations.

“Languages are so complex they can not just appear from nothing, they must have evolved from pre-linguistic systems”.
- “Continuity theories” of human languages
Web languages are designed to deliver textual context to Human.
