The chaotic growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) determined a fragmented landscape with a huge number of devices, technologies and platforms available on the market, and the consequential issues of interoperability on many system deployments. The Web of Things (WoT) architecture recently proposed by the W3C consortium constitutes a novel solution to enable interoperability across IoT platforms and application domains. At the same time, in order to see an effective improvement, a wide adoption of the W3C WoT solutions from the academic and industrial communities is required; this translates into the need of well-defined and complete support tools easing the deployment of W3C WoT applications. In this paper, we meet such requirement by proposing the WoT Store, a novel platform for managing and easing the deployment of Things and applications on the W3C WoT. The WoT Store allows the dynamic …
