Integrando as Plataformas FIWARE e KNoT para o Desenvolvimento de Aplicações de Internet das Coisas

Abstract

Middleware platforms have been used as underlying infrastructure to ease development of Internet of Things (IoT) applications. FIWARE is a platform that has stood out in this scenario as an open, extensible solution for application development, but it supports only devices with native Internet connection. On the other hand, the KNoT platform allows virtualizing physical devices that do not have IP communication with minimal development effort. This paper presents the integration of the two platforms through the development of a component compatible with the FIWARE standard interface, inserted into KNoT aiming at enhancing their use for IoT applications.
