In recent years, the emerging development of Internet of things (IoT) has created new opportunities for IoT service provider, device manufacturer and customer (end user). In agriculture, employing IoT can help reducing manpower as well as standardizing agricultural processes, thus increasing the benefit for customer who does agricultural business. Beside the opportunities, there are also issues while doing maintenance for an agricultural IoT system. One of them is how to automate the process to detect faults of IoT devices in a large deployment area. While previous studies focus on investigating algorithms as well as theoretical model to detect faults for specific IoT devices, automatically expanding of IoT management process for detecting faults of sensor/actuator has not been investigated yet. To achieve this, we should be able to deal with the relationship between IoT device manufacturer, service provider and customer. In this study, we conceptualize the knowledge of IoT devices, management process and fault detection requirement. To realize this model, we introduce a runtime system to expand the IoT management process for detecting sensor/actuator faults which is able to provide the above features. We do several experiments to show the effectiveness and usefulness of the proposed solution.ARTICLE HISTORY
