Integrating Cyber-Physical Systems in a Component-Based Approach for Smart Homes
Integration of different cyber-physical systems involves a development process that takes into account some solutions for intercommunicating and interoperating heterogeneous devices. Each device can be managed as a thing within the Internet-of-Things concept by using web technologies. In addition, a...
