Semantic web methodologies, best practices and ontology engineering applied to Internet of Things

We discuss in this paper, semantic web methodologies, best practices and recommendations beyond the IERC Cluster Semantic Interoperability Best Practices and Recommendations (IERC AC4). The semantic web community designed best practices and methodologies which are unknown from the IoT community. In this paper, we synthesize and highlight the most relevant work regarding ontology methodologies, engineering, best practices and tools that could be applied to Internet of Things (IoT). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work aiming at bridging such methodologies to the IoT community and go beyond the IERC AC4 cluster. This research is being applied to three uses cases: (1) the M3 framework assisting IoT developers in designing interoperable ontology-based IoT applications, (2) the FIESTA-IoT EU project encouraging semantic interoperability within IoT, and (3) a collaborative publication of legacy ontologies.
