Documenting Relationships
Relationships
Type: Re-use, Interoperable, ReferenceCompleteness: in % Validated by: {declared | application | plug-test | hackathon | deployment ... }
i.e. Documenting “Friendships” between components in the Ecosystem
Re-use: Strongest type of relationship between components: One directly reuses the others, or parts of the others.
interoperable: Strong type of relationship between components: proven interoperability between the two components or part of them.
Reference: Weak type of relationship between components: reference, similarity, and other relations between the two components or part of them.
Tags: Custom defined tags, defining the components and grouping them ... (ex: Project Names, Type of Features, Technology ...)

Open platforms initiative
Open-platforms.eu launched at IoT week 2014
Search for use cases & open-platforms to build your offer
Document your own open-platforms & use cases to increase your visibility
“Give me all the Libraries, with a TRL of 7 or more, that are maintained, already used in Smart Transport
deployments, with proven interoperability with my gateway and that work with my Reference
Architecture ?” “Here you go
