Abstract: The increasing number of connected devices which use Internet of Things (IoT) technology and variety of associated services is a real challenge to interoperability. There is a need of an abstraction layer which hides the technology heterogeneity. The paper presents an approach to data modeling in the domain of home energy saving which extends existing solutions with context-ware concepts and relationships. Requirements to data annotation are identified by use cases. Problem-solving principle is applied to data annotation which defines the vocabulary related to a certain task or activities. An observation and actuation models which show how data annotation works are proposed and formally verified. As a proof of concept, the server model includes web services that illustrate the usage of the proposed data annotation. The potential of home appliance power control is estimated.
