FIRE is an EU research initiative with two dimensions: experimentally-driven long-term research on new internet concepts/architectures and building large-scale experimentation facilities. FIRE can benefit from linked data by allowing experimental facilities, experiments, and IoT devices to be self-described and interconnected, enabling federation and dynamic composition of applications and network stacks. For example, linked data could be used to semantically search for IoT car detection services across different experimental facilities and integrate their data.

2. FIRE: Future Internet Research and ExperimentationEU FP6/FP7 research activities under Challenge 1“Pervasive and Trusted Network and Service Infrastructures”FIRE has two related dimensions:Experimentally-driven long-term, visionary research on new paradigms and networking concepts and architectures for the future internetBuilding large-scale experimentation facilities to support both medium- and long- term research on networks and services by gradually federating existing and new testbeds for emerging or future internet technologies2
