Mediator based approach for smart spaces integration

Abstract

The article considers the main methods of data integration for a variety of storage and knowledge representation systems, namely the integration of ontologies, linked data and smart spaces. The main attention is paid to the integration of smart spaces using a special software component - a mediator agent. The paper describes a formal model of the mediator agent and integration procedures based on the descriptive logic. The architecture of the mediator agent is designed for the smart spaces integration scenario based on mapping rules.
