In Web of Things (WoT), which RESTful HTTP method is typically used to update or modify a specific Property state of a WoT Thing?
In REST architectural style used by WoT, GET is used to retrieve property states, while PUT (or POST/PATCH) is used to update or alter the state of a resource/property.
Which architectural tier in a Unified Multi-tier WoT Architecture handles raw sensor data collection and low-level actuation at the physical layer?
Multi-tier WoT architecture comprises: (1) Edge/Device Tier for physical sensing/actuation, (2) Gateway/Middleware Tier for web protocol mapping, and (3) Cloud/Portal Tier for storage, visualization, and BI.
What is Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) in the context of Cloud of Things (CoT)?
Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) enables energy-constrained mobile devices and wearable IoT sensors to extend battery life and processing speed by delegating complex calculations to cloud resources.
In IIoT, what is a Cyber-Physical System (CPS)?
Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) bridge the virtual software domain with physical processes through feedback loops where physical inputs affect computations and vice-versa (e.g., smart robotics, autonomous factories).
Which open industrial standard protocol based on TCP/IP and HTTP/XML is widely used for machine tool data exchange in IIoT and Industry 4.0?
MTConnect is a lightweight, open manufacturing technical protocol that provides standardized data extraction from machine tools and factory equipment into readable XML format.
