“…An orchestration is typically defined using a workflow language such as BPEL [70,81,230,231,232,233,234,235] or BPMN [86,236]. The resulting workflow has tasks for passing control among services according to explicit control flow constructs (for sequencing, parallelising, branching and looping) [71].…”

The Internet of Things (IoT) is an emerging paradigm where practically every (physical and virtual) thing will be interconnected through innovative distributed services. Since the number of connected things is rapidly growing, IoT systems will require the composition of plenty of services into complex workflows. Thus, scalability in terms of the size of IoT systems becomes a significant concern. In this paper, we review and evaluate the fundamental semantics of existing IoT service composition mechanisms to determine how well they fulfil the scalability requirements of IoT systems. We identify scalability desiderata and, accordingly, our findings show that dataflows, orchestration and choreography do not fully satisfy such desiderata, unlike a novel composition mechanism called DX-MAN.

Abstract-In the future, things in the Internet of Things should be able to provide solutions for any task that we ask them to perform. Imagine that we would have hundreds of billions of devices connected to the Internet, each of these devices possibly has hundreds of gigabytes of storage and memory, a magnitude of giga instructions per second, and a bandwidth of gigabits per second. When these devices are connected in order to holistically work together, we would almost have an unbounded capacity. This paper introduces an architecture that utilizes all the available resources of the things on the Internet in hope to provide an unprecedented computational power to benefit society. There are three important features that a thing in this architecture could support: messaging, storage, and/or computation. With this architecture, a thing would be capable of discovering, working, and sharing with other things on the Internet. This architecture is based on the service-oriented concept to provide ease of use and implementation.

“…The architecture exposes all sensors and actuators as abstract business services. Pintus et al [24] proposed an SOA framework where real-world things are described using WSDL and communications (between things) are modeled as service orchestrations using BPEL (Business Process Execution Language). The SOA approach for networks with embedded systems has also emerged in projects such as SIRENA (Service Infrastructure for Real-Time Embedded Networked Applications) [25] and SOCRADES (Service Oriented Cross-layer Infrastructure for Distributed smart Embedded devices) [26].…”

Advances in ubiquitous computing and embedded systems are closing the gap between the physical and virtual worlds. With the Internet becoming the platform of choice for communication, ubiquitous computing faces new opportunities and challenges. Today, things like refrigerators and bathroom scales are becoming Internet enabled and the trend is increasing with Internet penetration predicted to cover a wide range of physical appliances. The Internet of Things (IoT) is an active research area, focusing on connecting real-world things over TCP/IP. This trend has recently triggered the research community to ponder the use of the Web (HTTP) as an application platform for integrating things on the Internet. The Web is now evolving from an information portal to an application platform for connecting people and things together. Harnessing physical things into the virtual world using Web standards also enriches the arena of conventional Web services to unleash data and function of physical things to be participants on the information highway. In this chapter, we introduce the Web of Things (WoT) as an application platform for the world of heterogeneous things around us. We reveal the state of the art in research and discuss the models and technologies driving the WoT to support future ambient environments where people and things interact seamlessly.
