Overview of this resource

This is the home of the MachineHypermediaToolkit demonstrator and evaluation guide.

MachineHypermediaToolkit is an experimental implementation of a web scalable hyperlink driven system for connected things and the information from connected things. The principle of Hypermedia As The Engine Of Application State, or HATEOAS, is used in the discovery of resources, and in the interaction between applications and resources, over networks of any scale.

The demonstrator and toolkit includes a system level framework of tools to demonstrate the entire hypermedia "life cycle" in the system, from modeling tools used to construct consistent hypermedia design patterns and vocabularies, to client side scripting engines that use hypermedia as a universal pluggability layer between applications and things.

There are four areas of development

Hypermedia Design of content formats, resource types, and collections How discovery is driven by HATEOAS how application interaction is driven by HATEOAS
