[Project Name] SPITFIRE [Home Page] www.spitfire-project.eu [Short Description] 
The objective of SPITFIRE (Semantic-Service Provisioning for the Internet of Things using Future Internet Research by Experimentation) is to realize the stronger connection between the natural and the digital worlds. It will investigate unified concepts, methods, and software infrastructures that support the efficient development of robust applications that span and integrate the Internet and the embedded world. SPITFIRE will significantly reduce the effort required for development of robust and interoperable applications in the Internet of Things. This will facilitate the building of new kinds of applications and services that were not possible before, thus having an impact on research, industry, and private households. The architecture developed in SPITFIRE unifies the IoT and the Web of Things domains using Semantic Web technologies and has the potential to increase European competitiveness in ICT technology proving the developed concepts by implementing business cases for applications based upon these concepts. Due to the enabling technologies provided by SPITFIRE, IoT-related technology could permeate private households and enterprises in a way not seen to date.
