Modelling Data Environments WithinPROV to Assist AnonymisationDecision-making
The Anonymisation Decision-making Framework (ADF) operationalizes the risk management of data exchange between organizations, referred to as "data environments". The second edition of ADF has increased its emphasis on modeling data flows, highlighting a potential new use of provenance information to support anonymisation decision-making. In this paper, we provide a use case that showcases this functionality. Based on this use case, we identify how provenance information could be utilized within the ADF, and identify a currently un-met requirement which is the modeling of data environments. We show how data environments can be implemented within the W3C PROV in four different ways. We analyze the costs and benefits of each approach, and consider another use case as a partial check for completeness. We then summarize our findings and suggest ways forward
SOfIoTS: ontological framework, demonstration outcomes, and recommendations for further work
The Secure Ontologies for the Internet of Things (SOfIoTS) project seeks to advance our understanding of the current state-of-the-art in respect of IoT security ontologies. It also aims to extend the current state-of-the-art by specifying an expansible IoT ontological framework that can be integrated with the UK Digital Twin model. The present report summarizes the progress made in respect of these objectives. In particular, we describe how a common upper-level ontology, called Basic Formal Ontology (BFO), can be used to model security concepts, IoT devices, digital twins, IoT data flows, and human factors
Microservices based Framework to Support Interoperable IoT Applications for Enhanced Data Analytics
Internet of things is growing with a large number of diverse objects which generate billions of data streams by sensing, actuating and communicating. Management of heterogeneous IoT objects with existing approaches and processing of myriads of data from these objects using monolithic services have become major challenges in developing effective IoT applications. The heterogeneity can be resolved by providing interoperability with semantic virtualization of objects. Moreover, monolithic services can be substituted with modular microservices. This article presents an architecture that enables the development of IoT applications using semantically interoperable microservices and virtual objects. The proposed framework supports analytic features with knowledge-driven and data-driven techniques to provision intelligent services on top of interoperable microservices in Web Objects enabled IoT environment. The knowledge-driven aspects are supported with reasoning on semantic ontology models and the data-driven aspects are realized with machine learning pipeline. The development of service functionalities is supported with microservices to enhance modularity and reusability. To evaluate the proposed framework a proof of concept implementation with a use case is discussed
Microservices based Linked Data Quality Model for Buildings Energy Management Services
During the production, distribution, and consumption of energy, a large quantity of data is generated. For efficiently using of energy resources other supplementary data such as building information, weather, and environmental data etc. are also collected and used. All these energy data and relevant data is published as linked data in order to enhance the reusability of data and maximization of energy management services capability. However, the quality of this linked data is questionable because of wear and tears of sensors, unreliable communication channels, and highly diversification of data sources. The provision of high-quality energy management services requires high quality linked data, which reduces billing cost and improve the quality of the living environment. Assessment and improvement methodologies for the quality of data along with linked data needs to process very diverse data from highly diverse data sources. Microservices based data-driven architecture has great significance to processes highly diverse linked data with modular ity, scalability, and reliability. This paper proposed microservices based architecture along with domain data and metadata ontologies to enhance and assess energy-related linked data quality
A Framework for Detecting Event related Sentiments of a Community
Social media has revolutionized human communication and styles of interaction. Due to its easiness and effective medium, people share and exchange information, carry out discussion on various events, and express their opinions. For effective policy making and understanding the response of a community on different events, we need to monitor and analyze the social media. In social media, there are some users who are more influential, for example, a famous politician may have more influence than a common person. These influential users belong to specific communities. The main object of this research is to know the sentiments of a specific community on various events. For detecting the event based sentiments of a community we propose a generic framework. Our framework identifies the users of a specific community on twitter. After identifying the users of a community, we fetch their tweets and identify tweets belonging to specific events. The event based tweets are pre-processed. Pre-processed tweets are then analyzed for detecting sentiments of a community for specific events. Qualitative and quantitative evaluation confirms the effectiveness and usefulness of our proposed framework
