SEMIoTICS aims to develop a pattern-driven framework, built upon existing IoT platforms, to enable and guarantee secure and dependable actuation and semi-autonomic behaviour in IoT/IIoT applications. Patterns will encode the requirements for the IoT deployment by stating the goals with respect to the security, privacy, dependability and interoperability (SPDI) needs of individual smart objects. Correspondingly, the properties will be carried forward to the orchestration involving them. The SEMIoTICS framework will support cross-layer intelligent dynamic adaptation, including heterogeneous smart objects, networks and clouds, addressing effective adaptation and autonomic behaviour at field (edge) and infrastructure (backend) layers based on intelligent analysis and learning. To address the complexity and scalability needs within horizontal and vertical domains, SEMIoTICS will develop and integrate smart programmable networking and semantic interoperability mechanisms. The practicality of the above approach will be validated using three diverse usage scenarios in the areas of renewable energy (addressing Industrial IoT, or IIoT), healthcare (focusing on human-centric IoT), and smart sensing (covering both IIoT and IoT); which will be offered through an open API.
