Abstract

In this paper, we aim at tools for the development of applications for the Internet of things. We consider mashup tools, which can model the data flow between applications and devices in a graphical way. We present a first approach to model generic components in mashup tools for IoT systems, which represent a set of sensors and actuators. We introduce and compare different approaches for operations on such generic components. In particular, we propose an extension of mashup tools with 1:n relations, which models a set of resources in a concise way. Then, we discuss how operations can be conducted in a simple and concise way based on RESTful operations.
