… and monetize it by using the web tools and business models.


Project group


9 large companiesform different industries

4 SME companiesfrom different industries

6 universities/research institutes

Multiple domains in the same project –mobile, home, automotive, installed infrastructure, construction

Open platform for interoperability and application development, common user interaction solutions


Market innovation

SOFIA solutions lower the cost of interoperability

agreements in the converging digital world of systems.

SOFIA introduces new applications for embedded

systems manufacturers.

The applications provide ease of use for different kinds

of user groups.

The applications also provide efficiency in maintaining

large resources, reducing maintenance cost, reducing

energy costs etc.



Key technologies

Smart-M3: Software for cross-domain interoperability

Semantic level - publish-subscribe/query architecture

Voluntary sharing of information by objects in physical space

Interoperability agreements on information level

Exploitation of existing service and device world solutions

http://sourceforge.net/projects/smart-m3/

Application Development Kit for multiple platforms

Provides content developers access to larger markets.

Use open source technologies – based on Eclipse.

Ontology Driven Development

Ontology governance tools for common information

Examples in the Subway Station

A suspicious bag is detected by a video camera. Security staff is alerted and gets emergency locations, video/audio, crowd info, tracks of colleagues. Passengers are invited to evacuate the area and get custom info about safety exits on public displays and their mobiles.

Smart Surveillance and Monitoring of

Public Areas

Inconsistent data are received from different sensors about the status of a wall in the tube.An operator is notified and can go to check the situation and perform maintenance.

Monitoring of Public Infrastructures

Mobile Ad-hoc Emergency Networks

Following a train derailment, first responder units (men and vehicles) set-up ad-hoc emergency network amongst themselves and all available (wireless) infrastructure nodes in the subway to support rescue operations.

People can leave and receive virtual notes in the station with their mobiles, notifying problems about trains, railway lines, insecure places, station facilities, and so on.
