A semantic-based mobile registry for dynamic RFID-based logistics support

Abstract

In this paper we propose an extended version of the open source jUDDI implementation by the Apache Software Foundation, adapted to pervasive RFID contexts. The registry adopts an OWL-S 1.1 Profile instance annotation of mobile services and resources. Ontology-based metadata are exploited in order to perform a semantic-based service discovery w.r.t. a given request. The proposed framework has been devised for pervasive RFID-based logistics environments. A case study is presented along with experimental results on a prototype implementation.

Mini-ME Matchmaker and Reasoner for the Semantic Web of Things

“…OWL 2 profiles definition complies with this perspective, focusing on language subsets of practical interest for important application areas rather than on fragments with significant theoretical properties. In a parallel effort motivated by similar principles, in (Ruta, Di Noia, Di Sciascio, Piscitelli, & Scioscia, 2008) an early approach was proposed to adapt non-standard logic-based inferences to pervasive computing contexts. By limiting expressiveness to the AL language, acyclic, structural algorithms were adopted reducing standard and non-standard inference tasks to set-based operations.…”

Semantic-Based RFID Data Management

“…• product/process requirements established in the contract with supplier can be immediately verified by means of a semantic query upon yarn characteristics; • each yarn type can be routed to a different warehouse area, according to specific storage requirements (e.g., temperature, humidity) [45];…”
