Abstract

The number of datasets in the Linking Open Data Cloud increases rapidly and has reached a total of 295 by September 2011. Various content domains are covered by those datasets, such as Media, Government or Geographic Data, all directly linked to each other building a huge graph of interlinked structured data. However, data describing the mobile network topology including its components and (dynamic) properties (e.g., traffic or number of users in a radio cell) are not semantically available yet in the LOD Cloud. Therefore, we propose the OpenMobileNetwork -- a dataset for mobile networks and devices, which is semantically modeled using the Linked Data principles. It provides structured RDF data describing mobile networks, their topology and components (e.g., base stations, mobile devices or WiFi access points). Utilizing this dataset in combination with interlinked information that is present in the LOD Cloud, various applications can be realized that depend on mobile network and positioning data, such as Semantic Location-based Services. In this paper, however, we focus on the realization of a Power Management in Mobile Networks.
