Lively Web of Things (LWoT)

The term Web of Things (WoT) refers to the concept of integrating resources and interactions involving devices, data, and people on the web. WoT features interactions as first class entities above and beyond traditional web resources and, thus, enabling applications with substantial context awareness, personalization, and automation. Lively is a new open source approach to web programming developed by our industrial partner. It provides a complete platform for web applications, including dynamic graphics, network access, and development tools. The aim of the Lively WoT project is to develop a series of dashboards for different application domains using Lively. Using the Lively Kernel as a code base we will use a model driven engineering approach to generate personalized and self-adaptive dashboards for diverse domains, including cloud computing, big data analytics, and interactive shared video streaming.
