– Active. Real-Time Operations Facilitations or ROOF is a class of computational framework for Edge Computing with Internet of Things (IoT). The ROOF framework provides support for building scalable, secure, and robust Internet of Things applications with limited tools in resource constrained situations. The ROOF helps in developing federated architecture for large scale IoT operations. At the same time, it can provide micro-models for rapid prototyping and quick decision making. It also provides autonomic architectural support for spatio-temporal events handling. The ROOF framework has been designed to provide innovation, reuse, better user experience, security by design, for harmonizing horizontal as well as vertical integration for the Internet of Things ecosystem.
