Official ETSI portal for SAREF
This portal contains pointers to the SAREF ontologies and SAREF-related work items
The Smart Applications REFerence (SAREF) ontology is a shared model of consensus that facilitates the matching of existing assets in the smart applications domain.
SAREF provides building blocks that allow separation and recombination of different parts of the ontology depending on specific needs.
SAREF explicitly specifies recurring core concepts in the smart applications domain, the main relationships between these concepts, and axioms to constrain the usage of these concepts and relationships. SAREF has been
created based on the following fundamental principles:
Figure 1 shows an overview of the main classes of SAREF and their relationships.
This SAREF public portal, the SAREF sources with continuous integration and deployment, the SAREF Pipeline software, and ETSI Technical Specification TS 103 673 v1.1.1 "SAREF Development Framework and Workflow, Streamlining the Development of SAREF and its Extensions", have been developed in the context of the ETSI STF 578, which followed the ETSI STF 556
