Abstract

In the domain of IoT a major objective is the interconnection of a variety of devices with higher level applications. Therefore, several IoT middleware systems have been developed. These IoT integration middleware systems are heterogeneous, e.g., in terms of the supported transport protocols. Thus, IoT environments often differ due to the utilized middleware. As a result, by deploying applications in different environments the communication clients on the application side have to be adjusted manually. This leads to a greater development effort for each deployment and hampers the application's portability. In this paper, we present a generic driver injection concept to enable the development of portable IoT applications and the automated deployment in different environments without manual adaptation efforts. For this, a programming model and a deployment modeling concept are introduced. We demonstrate the feasibility of our approach with a TOSCA-based prototype.
