DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF A COMPACT ONTOLOGY FOR SEMANTIC MODELING OF A SMART HOSPITAL

Abstract

The IoT enables appliances globally to communicate with each other and produce a large quantity of information that can realize valuable information in different service domains. We will develop inter-connected semantic structures to promote semantic interoperability by combining the IoT device's data with semantic technologies. In research paper, we suggest a semantic engine platform (SEP) to promote ontological frameworks in different IoT-based service areas of the smart city. In specific, the main discussion is on three key concerns related to the delivery of advanced semantic infrastructure in IoT-related applications: semantic exploration, interactive semantic representation, and semantic data repository. The feasibility of this SEP is shown by developing a smart hospital prototype application, giving a preset hospital environment in which user’s data is interpreted with the help of smart mobiles. The smart city scenario is explored in this paper with the help of SEP solutions based on services across different domains using IoT capabilities. In this way, our approach will ultimately lead to a smart city with more streamlined, robust facilities with help of semantic interoperability.
