Modeling IoT Applications for Air Conditioning Facilities with MIoTA

The development of Internet of Things (IoT) applications is a complex and challenging process. In this area, the main problems arise from the lack of standardization and the complexity and heterogeneity of the IoT landscape. It has been demonstrated that model-driven development (MDD) is an effective technique for tackling these issues. Our previous work showed that methods for MDD that include system development and integration and organizational aspects are scarce. To address this gap, this chapter introduces MIoTA: Modeling IoT Applications for Air Conditioning Facilities, a modeling method designed to facilitate the development of IoT applications in the air conditioning field. MIoTA was implemented on ADOxx, containing a domain-specific modeling language (DSML) and various functionalities to support the modeling and development processes. Consequently, no specific IT skills are required at the application level. The approach has been evaluated practically within a case study and with quality criteria in previous work.
