Semantic aware resource mapping for future internet experimental facilities

Over the last decade, research experimental infrastructures have been widely deployed, enabling Future Internet experimental validation in realistic testing environments. Addressing resource management issues, such as discovery, selection, allocation and provisioning of resources, is crucial for the infrastructure´s operation and efficiency in providing researchers with the appropriate experimentation environment. In this study we propose a semantic-based approach for topology mapping in the case of wireless research infrastructures, while we adopt and extend a semantic-based information model to describe wireless resources. The efficiency of the proposed scheme is evaluated via emulation.
