Information Retrieval for IoT and WoT: State-of-the-Art, Taxonomy Framework, and Evolutionary Directions

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The explosive growth of Internet of Things (IoT) and Web of Things (WoT) technologies, characterized by a vast diversity of devices and data formats, producing vast volumes of information at a high pace in real time necessitates a paradigm shift in information retrieval (IR) systems. Traditional IR struggles to navigate the dynamic landscapes of these interconnected environments. This work proposes a multidimensional taxonomy framework to bridge this critical gap. Our framework not only unifies existing classification approaches but also delves into the analysis of traditional IR subtasks, thereby establishing a cohesive foundation for future advancements in IR tailored to the evolving IoT/WoT landscape. We further contribute by identifying key challenges and posing open research questions, thus propelling the development of next-generation IR techniques specifically tailored to the intricate search demands of the evolving IoT and WoT cyber-world.
