Specifying an MQTT Tree for a Connected Smart Home
Abstract
Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) represents one of the most promising Internet of Things applications due to its influence on the quality of life and health of the elderly people. However, the interoperability is one of the major issues that needs to be addressed to promote the adoption of AAL solutions in real environments, and to find a way of common exchange between the available connected tools to share the data exchanged. This article will present software buses needs and specify an API based on a MQTT software bus treelike architecture. An example is given to illustrate the efficiency of the API developed in a smart home.
