Technical Summary
The Semantic Definition Format (SDF) is a format for domain experts
to use in the creation and maintenance of data and interaction models
that describe Things, i.e., physical objects that are available for
interaction over a network. An SDF specification describes
definitions of SDF Objects/SDF Things and their associated
interactions (Events, Actions, Properties), as well as the Data types
for the information exchanged in those interactions. Tools convert
this format to database formats and other serializations as needed.
