Abstract
In this paper we evaluate two M3 smart space information broker
implementations -- Smart-M3 and RIBS. M3 is a semantic interoperability
architecture for both local and Internet connected smart environments and it
utilizes RDF databases in similar fashion as does the Semantic Web. The
implementations compared in this paper have similar functionality, but their
design philosophies are very different. Smart-M3 is an open source reference
architecture for M3 and RIBS is a solution for devices with restricted
computational capabilities. Our evaluation is based on both qualitative
evaluation and quantitative measurements. A measurement and testing tool for
M3 smart environment databases was built during the work. Measurement based
analysis shows that the RIBS implementation is 6.7-237 times faster than
Smart-M3 over an Ethernet network, but RIBS is usable only in a limited number
of use cases. The work also shows that there is a need for new M3 database
solutions which are usable for more generic use cases.
