The interoperability concerns horizontal integration among IoT devices which form vendor- or protocol-specific silos. To answer, this brief presents an architectural design of an autonomic interoperability manager (AIM) that is capable of self-configuration, self-healing, self-optimization, and self-protection. With AIM, IoT devices having diverse protocols, syntax, and semantics can collaborate and interact, and its plugin-based autonomic, service-oriented architecture ensures scalability and extendability. We simulated a healthcare use-case with a range of virtual IoT devices to demonstrate that the AIM dramatically reduces the average response time in a highly dynamic environment, by proactively pruning the network traffic and optimizing the compute resources.
