F-Interop – Online Platform of Interoperability and Performance Tests for the Internet of Things

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:

Abstract

This article presents an initial set of results from the F-Interop European research project researching online platform for interoperability and performance tests for the Internet of Things. It presents some of the challenges faced by the IoT and online testing, and how F-Interop is addressing them, in order to provide an extensive experimental platform for online tests. It gives an overview of its overall architecture.
