Description

Water Distribution Networks (WDN) are the infrastructures responsible for delivering drinking water to consumers. The effective monitoring and control of these systems is of vital importance since malfunction may significantly affect the health, safety, security and/or economic well-being of people. The advancements in coupling WDN with the ICT infrastructure, combined with the more recent introduction of smart sensing and actuation technologies, have enabled the enhancement of "Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA)"-based applications. These applications in current water systems assume pre-defined configuration and characteristics of the involved components (sensors, actuators, controllers, etc.). This work explores how semantic mediation techniques may contribute to the online configuration of the monitoring and control architectures by exploiting and reasoning over the capabilities of deployed devices.
