The Web evolves...
• From a “simple” system of hypertext/hypermedia ...
• ...to a social and collaborative environment (the so called Web 2.0)...
• ...to a platform for heterogeneous applications (Web Services and so on)...

Web of Things
• things are “smart enough” to be connected to the Internet and...
• communicate using HTTP protocol
• Web protocols as a “lingua franca” for the WoT

Paraimpu
• It allows to:
• connect objects to the Web
• connect objects between them
• connections can be established not only between “physical objects”...
• ...but also involving “virtual objects” (Web services, social networks, Twitter, Foursquare, Pachube, ...)

The model: 3 basic concepts

Sensors, Actuators, Connections
![Page 8: Paraimpu: a social tool for the Web of Things](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051817/5485805db4af9f910d8b4dd0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Sensors
• any thing capable to produce data
• transmit data toward Paraimpu using HTTP (REST)
• anemometers, Arduino boards, but also Foursquare, Pachube, other services in the Web...

Actuators
• any thing able to receive/consume data and perform an action
• receive data from Paraimpu using HTTP (REST)
• X10 lighting, alarm systems, but also Twitter, Facebook, Google Calendars, ...

Connections
• Always involve:
• a Sensor: the source
• an Actuator: the destination
• they are configurable:
• data filtering
• data mapping

Social /1
• first aspect: integration with existing social networks
• friends/contacts import
• existing social networks become “things” in Paraimpu: Sensors and Actuators
• e.g., Twitter becomes an Actuator: a thing capable to receive data and to “tweet” it

Social /2
• Second aspect: share things!
• it should be possible to share my things with friends...
• ... and allow them to use my things in their connections
• policy & bookmark features

The Palette
• it allows to add new Sensors and new Actuators:
• Generic Sensors and Actuators
• Specialized Sensors/Actuators: Pachube, Twitter, Arduino, Facebook, ...
• ...and others coming soon!
