A Method for Virtualization of Objects in the Supply Chain, Based on Device-Dependent Temporary Services Architecture in IOT Environment (Case Study: Bus Tickets)

With the advancement of technology, many physical objects have been designed in a digital format such as books, tickets, and so on. In most cases, any virtual object can only be interpreted by a particular application software, so there will be a problem of interpretation. Virtual objects are a new set of objects in the cyber space and can do many things online and offline. Different research efforts have tried to provide a common structure for defining and managing virtual objects based on service-oriented architecture called device-dependent temporary services. In this paper, while defining a virtual object, it examines the features and benefits of the architecture of the device-dependent temporary services, and a method for implementing the virtual object of bus ticket as a case study based on it. The results show that the benefits of virtualization of bus tickets in the process of utilizing the relevant services have more value than other solutions.
Key words: Internet of Things, Virtual Object, Device-Dependent Temporary Services (DDTS), Bus Ticket.
