Abstract
Emergency management is a highly critical domain where the information transmission in real-time to the appropriate stakeholders is essential. Based on the results of the “Web of Objects” ITEA 2 project, this paper presents an IoT-based devices collaboration solution across an emergency management workflow, where the exchanged messages are semantically enriched. This solution includes innovative strategies for addressing the three involved issues: ensuring the device management into an interoperable manner and based on a suitable distributed architecture; setting up different workflows for device collaboration while ensuring their autonomy; establishing a suitable format for exchanged data between devices.
