Recent advances in medical science have made people live longer, which has affected many aspects of life,
such as caregiver burden, increasing cost of healthcare, increasing number of disabled and depressive disorder
persons, and so on. Researchers are now focused on elderly living assistance services in smart home
environments. In recent years, assisted living technologies have rapidly grown due to a faster growing aging
society. Many smart devices are now interconnected within the home network environment and such a home
setup supports collaborations between those devices based on the Internet of Things (IoT). One of the major
challenges in providing elderly living assistance services is to consider each individual’s requirements of
different needs. In order to solve this, the virtualization of physical things, as well as the collaboration and
composition of services provided by these physical things should be considered. In order to meet these
challenges, Web of Objects (WoO) focuses on the implementation aspects of IoT to bring the assorted real
world objects with the web applications. We proposed a semantic modelling technique for manual and semiautomated
service composition. The aim of this work is to propose a framework to enable RESTful web
services composition using semantic ontology for elderly living assistance services creation in WoO based
smart home environment.
