helena?

<helena> Hi kaz

<helena> we were in the cognitive TF meeting

<helena> now we are in our room

ok

<helena> with the WoT people

ok

will be there in a few min

mins

<helena> great

joint meeting with WoT

ddahl: explains what the MMI Architecture is like
... the Interaction Manager works with various Modality Components like speech, emotion recognition, ink capture
... communicate with user for WoT
... there is another component named Resource Manager
... responsible to maintain the state of the resources
... manage their capabilities
... shows another diagram
... with a rice cooker

(green picture)

helena: UPnP itself doesn't provide device capability information
... we were thinking the WoT framework should provide that kind of information

seb: explains Thing Description
... data types coming from RDF and schema
... but how to handle the range, etc.
... maybe there are some ways to rely on
... but not fixed yet
... if the type relies on XML, we can use its schema
... JSON Schema is not yet standardized, though
... we'll have discussion on Schema.org too

ddahl: how can a developer get the value like temperature?

seba: can access the entry point specified by the "uris" property
... and get the value by the "hrefs"
... index.html is the entry point at the uris URL

ddahl: besides temp, we can use more than one properties?

helena: each property is atomic?

seba: we could allow multiple protocols
... and multiple hrefs

helena: question about the end point for multiple protocols

seba: properties are handled by GET
... actions are handled by POST
... there is already complains on the usage of "uris"
... maybe better to explicitly specify the method in addition to protocols within "uris"

kaz: also it would be even clearer to use different endpoint file names for different protocols instead of reuse "index.html" for all possible protocols

seba: right
... discussion still ongoing
... this is JSON-LD notation based on RDF
... can show a bigger example

helena: do you have any taxonomy to describe things?
... about how "things" could be described in addition to "devices"
... e.g., flower

(discussion on ontology)

seba: we're not working on ontology
... different kinds of ontologies could be used with the WoT framework

helena: if I want to use some ontology with TD, where I can specify that within TD?

seba: within the @context part
... and can use the prefix within the below @context

ddahl: unit change?
... how the manufacture could specify units?
