A User-Centric Knowledge Creation Model in a Web of Object-Enabled Internet of Things Environment

User-centric service features in a Web of Object-enabled Internet of Things environment can be provided by using a semantic ontology that classifies and integrates objects on the World Wide Web as well as shares and merges context-aware information and accumulated knowledge. The semantic ontology is...
