abstract = {Similarly to the standardization effort initiated for the World Wide Web in the 1990s, the World Wide Web Consortium is currently working on the Web of Things (WoT) specification. This initiative aims to tackle current fragmentation in the so-called Internet of Things by using existing Web standards. The ultimate goal is to cope with the increasing number of devices that are being connected to the Internet and to enable interoperability among them. On the other hand, Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) approaches make use of models to raise the abstraction level with the objective of accelerating the software development process, enabling design and code reuse, and increasing software quality.This work proposes to apply MDE techniques to enable the efficient development of WoT servients. Based on the WoT Thing Description specification, this work proposes both a textual-based concrete syntax and a model-based abstract syntax\textemdashboth fully compliant with the WoT specification\textemdashthat enable the generation of WoT servients in C++ with CoAP communication capabilities. This proposal is implemented by a tool that covers the whole development process, which is publicly available under an open source license.},

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.},

abstract = {In the last years, there has been an increasing interest for Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) solutions in the Web. Web-based modeling solutions can leverage on better support for distributed management (i.e., the Cloud) and collaboration. However, current modeling environments and frameworks are usually restricted to desktop-based scenarios and therefore their capabilities to move to the Web are still very limited. In this paper we present an approach to generate Web APIs out of models, thus paving the way for managing models and collaborating on them online. The approach, called EMF-REST, takes Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) data models as input and generates Web APIs following the REST principles and relying on well-known libraries and standards, thus facilitating its comprehension and maintainability. Also, EMF-REST integrates model and Web-specific features to provide model validation and security capabilities, respectively, to the generated API.},
