IoT-lite Ontology

The IoT lite Ontology is a lightweight ontology to represent Internet of Things resources, entities and services. The lightweight allow the representation and use of IoT platforms without consuming excessive processing time when querying the ontology. However it is also a meta ontology that can be extended in order to represent IoT concepts in a more detail way in different domains.
