Ontology based Service Discovery for Intelligent Transport Systems using Internet of Things

In this paper, we design and implement an ontological model, Service oriented Context Ontology for Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) application, that aids in service discovery for the commuters. We conceptualize and architecture the domain knowledge of the ITS system along with user requirements and preferences namely, the association of IoT devices, ITS components, services and user with each other so as to address the complex service request in a conflict free manner. We also present implementation details of a prototype system that demonstrates the capabilities of the proposed ontology.
