SOFIA Motivation and rationale

Main goal of the SOFIA project is to make "information" in the physical world available for smart services -connecting physical world with information world.

Full access to information present in the embedded computing devices has a potential for large impact on the daily lives of people living in this environment.

SOFIA - Sharing information locally

What if I know that he is

answering the call? Should I turn

the sound off? Automatically?

What if I know that he can not hear the

incoming call? Should I flash lights?

Automatically?

What if I know that music is loud in the

room? Could I alarm louder? Use

vibration? Automatically?

SOFIA platform makes it possible to mash-up and integrate information between all applications and domains spanning

from embedded domains to the Web.

SOFIA ADK for developers• Objectives:

• Define the life-cycle development of Sofia Smart Applications.

• Cross domain.

• Needed tools to cover whole life-cycle development.

• Approach:

• ODD (Ontology Driven Development). Ontologies as development drivers.

• Eclipse as base IDE to integrate different platforms (NoTA, OSGi) and different programming languages.

• Benefits:

• Fast curve learning.

• Cross-domain.

• Help companies/developers access to larger markets.

• Multiple programming languages (Java, C, C++, Python, C#).

• Flexible and scalable.

• Visual tools to abstract the semantics complexity.


Smart-M3 design time view

Bling!A great idea involving

two programmable devices that need to share information!

Create a common ontology model for your use case (or preferably take an

existing one)

Use Smart-M3 for

sharing the information and create “The Bling!”

SOFIA ADK Approach

Hide ontology complexity to developers, transforming ontologies into model APIs.

Developers are only focus on the logic, not in communications, discovery, or semantics.

SOFIA Pilots

Smart Building Maintenance Bologna, Italy

A large office complex of three buildings will be equipped with multiple devices and technologies able to make the indoor spaces smart. A Facility company will “Smartify”relevant indoor spaces, building component and equipments.

Date: t33Leader: CCC

Contributors: EUTH/UNIBOCONANTE/NXP

SUM‐SS ‐ Oulu, FinlandSUMS‐SS will demonstrate seamless usage of the smart spaces including a personal space, a smart home and a smart city. The last two will collaborate with the services provided in a cloud through the Cam4Home Open Platform.

Date: t24/t27/t29 Leader: VTT

Smart Home Eidenhoven, Netherlands

In order to generate a Smart Space within a home environment different devices will seamlessly work with one another by exchanging relevant information through the semantic information broker.

Date: t32‐t33Leader: PHILIPS

Contributors: NXP/CONANTE/TU/e

Virtual Wall This service will allow transport users with a mobile device to visualize virtual notes published, download native information provided by the company or municipality and generate and publish virtual notes at the bus stop.

Date: TBC /2011Leader: INDRA

Contributors: NOKIA, MWW

Smart Video‐surveillance Bologna, Italy

The UMVS Monitoring Station will prompt subway operators of abandoned bags through the system, taking quick decisions on evacuation procedures & guiding the public through optimal exits, external security teams can interact with the system.

Date: t34Leader: NXW

Contributors: EUTH/UNROMAINDRA/WMC/CONANTE/EUTH

Media Follows User Bologna, Italy

Mobile users will be able to seamlessly consume a particular media from different devices while moving around between different locations and use the most optimal resources of each personal environment.

Date: t30 / t34Leader: CRF

Contributors: NOK, VTT

Maintenance on the move

Bologna, ItalyEnd users will experience the improvement on the operative procedures and the overall business of a Global service in a smart indoor space with the use of multivendor mobile devices, wireless sensor networks and different Embedded Systems.

Conclusions

• A solution for exchanging data between devices.

• “Standardization”: agreeing the semantics and ontology of the information.

• SOFIA IOP and existing connectivity and SOA solutions are “the platform”

• SOFIA ADK helps developers to target different platforms
