[occi-wg] Input for column on IoT

[Philippe Merle]

Hi Alan, all,

Last months, we coached a student project on applying OCCI to control 
mobile robots (a kind of IoT).
Each robot is reflected by an OCCI resource with a new OCCI kind.
These OCCI resources are hosted by our generic OCCIware server.
The implementation of the new kinds is a bridge from OCCI to network 
protocols to interact with mobile robots.
Three kinds of robots are currently supported: Lego Mindstorm, AR Drone 
and TurtleBot 2.

In brief, OCCI can be experimentally used to model mobile robots as 
resource.

One of next steps will be to embed the OCCI server directly inside 
mobile robots, e.g., our TurtleBot 2 embeds a portable computer, 
Raspberry PI could be the computer of a mobile robot.

Another big step could be to define an OCCI extension, which clearly 
standardizes a set of kinds and mixins related to IoT.

A+
Philippe
