DRAFT Web of Things Working Group Charter

Motivation and Background

In recent years, the Web of Things (WoT) Working Group has developed a set - of deliverables that address interoperability challenges in the IoT. - These deliverables define - standardized building blocks, such as the - WoT Thing - Description, WoT Discovery, and - WoT Scripting - API, which simplify IoT device on-boarding into target systems - and applications, as well as IoT application development, by using - well-established Web technologies.
