Abstract

This ontology describes concepts, relations, and properties identified in MAS-Society use cases.

1. Description

The IESO's Device module describes devices and respective functions, commands, and states. The IESO's Measure Ontology allows the description of device measurements, measurement values, type of measures, and units of measure.

The IESO’s Device module, strongly inspired by the SAREF core ontology, describes devices and respective functions, commands, and states. However, it only reuses concepts and relations that make sense in the scope of the MAS-Society. Thus, the core concepts are Device, Command, Function, and State. The Measure ontology module covers the devices’ measurements and respective units of measure. A Device is defined by having some Function and State, and it can be composed by some devices or being part of another device. The Function class is described by having at least one Command, which, in turn, acts on some device’s State. An alignment module with SAREF core will be made available on the module’s web page. The MAS’ applicational ontologies extend this module to detail the required knowledge for their data and business models.
