Service providers provision more and more Internet-of-Things (IoT) services in the cloud for dynamicity and cost-effectiveness purposes. This is made possible thanks to the introduction of edge computing that brings additional computing and resources for analytics close to the data sources and thus enables meeting the low latency requirement. Edge nodes should support (i) the heterogeneity of IoT devices (e.g., sensor, actuator) and (ii) characteristics (e.g., mobility, location awareness). IoT is already integrated to the hybrid cloud/edge environment. However, the ecosystem lacks of automation due to the previously mentioned characteristics. Indeed, edge nodes are often manually selected during deployment time, and most of the regular quality-of-service (QoS) management procedures remain difficult to implement. This paper introduces a comprehensive semantic model called EdgeOnto. It encompasses all …
