Une ville intelligente peut être considérée comme un système complexe dans lequel les différents acteurs coopèrent afin d’améliorer la zone urbaine, la rendant plus efficace et plus durable. Pour atteindre cet objectif, les technologies de l’information et de la communication et, en particulier l’Internet des Objets, sont appelées à jouer un rôle clé pour la mise en œuvre des solutions innovantes, des services et des applications. Cependant, en regardant l’état actuel de la ville intelligente, la réalisation d’un tel concept est encore loin d’être atteinte; le scénario réel est en effet caractérisé par un niveau élevé de fragmentation en raison de la pléthore de technologies et de dispositifs présents dans une ville. Afin de combler cette lacune, dans cette thèse, l’évolution de l’Internet des objets vers le Cloud of Things (CoT) est démontrée. Pour démontrer ce concept, le système d’exploitation VITAL est introduit. Dans le CoT, et en général dans le contexte Smart City, l’un des défis les plus importants est la découverte de données-sources appropriées aux besoins des utilisateurs. Cette découverte est une opération qui peut être exécutée directement in-network et / ou out-network. Dans cette thèse, les deux processus sont discutés en introduisant deux solutions différentes. En ce qui concerne la découverte in-network, la conception d’une passerelle pour le Cloud of Things est introduite. Cette passerelle est capable de découvrir et de gérer différents objets sur une base sémantique et, d’autre part, d’agir comme point final pour la présentation des données aux utilisateurs, combinant ainsi tous les aspects de cette thèse. / A Smart City can be seen as a complex system in which different actors cooperate in order to improve, the urban area, making it efficient and sustainable. To achieve this goal, the Information and Communication Technologies, and especially the prominent Internet of Things, are called to play a key role for implementing innovative solutions, services, and applications. However, looking at the current status, the realization of the Smart City is still far from being realized; the real scenario is indeed characterized with a high level of fragmentation due to the plethora of technologies and devices present in a city. In order to bridge this gap, in this thesis, the evolution of the Internet of Things towards the Cloud of Things (CoT) is demonstrated. To demonstrate this concept, the VITAL operating system is introduced. Within the CoT, and in general in the Smart City context, one of the most important challenges is the discovery of appropriate data-sources that satisfy user requirements. The discovery is an operation that can be performed directly in-network and/or out-network. In this thesis, both processes are discussed by introducing two different solutions. Going deeply towards an horizontal unification of different data-sources and the need to have processing capabilities closer to the network, in the last part of the dissertation, the design of a gateway for the Cloud of Things is introduced. This gateway is capable to discover and manage different semantic-like things and, on the other hand, to act as end-point for the presentation of data to users, bridging the contributions of this thesis.

Em Martin Heidegger, principal autor com o qual dialoga Lévinas, a morte é vista não como um fenômeno da vida, mas como um modo de ser do Dasein e que pode ser antecipada (vorlaufende Entschlossenheit), possibilitando o destrancamento do impessoal (das Man) e uma possível resignificação da existência inautêntica face a angústia da nadificação. Lévinas, no seu esforço de desontologizar a filosofia, vê a morte como um evento que afronta o presente do sujeito inter-essado (intéressement). Ao contrário da atracção existencial na qual a finitude está posta na Analítica Existencial, a morte, em Lévinas, é posta no exterior da existência, realizando-se como um anti-projeto. A morte é um enigma, uma experiência inexperienciável, uma alteridade estranha que dissipa os poderes compreensivos do sujeito, torna-o passivo, delineia os limites da razão e restringe a capacidade de antecipação à possibilidade mais radical da existência. Deste modo, acredita Lévinas, a morte do outro a “morte primeira”, uma experiência moral concreta, mais impactante do que os poderes da morte própria. O filósofo francês tem a morte como afecção do outro no Mesmo. Assim, é possível afirmar que morremos na morte de outrem. Angustiamo-nos por não possuirmos respostas (a não-resposta, o sem-resposta), por estarmos diante de um enigma absoluto que só temos a possibilidade de “sofrê-lo”, porque outros morrem junto e nem se pode “morrer por eles”, nem morrer a própria morte e nem ser dono de qualquer poder de decisão, a não ser que ela se aproxime, se avizinhe (voisinage). A essência da morte é o seu caráter de eterno futuro. Constitui-se, desta maneira, uma grandiosa metonímia na existência. Não a minha morte, mas a morte do outro é a morte primeira, pois é esse evento que me inicia e continua re-lembrando que sou mortal, pois não me apercebo desse fato todo o tempo. O acesso a mortalidade, a minha mortalidade, faz-se, desde Lévinas, via experiência da morte de outro. A angústia que me toma não é fundamental, prima, é um “sentimento” a posteriori que nesta etapa posterior irá me angustiar profundamente e de forma singular. / The present research analyses the phenomenology of death in Emmanuel Lévinas. According to Martin Heidegger, the main philosopher with whom Lévinas develops a dialogue, death is not seen as a phenomenon of life but as a way of being of Dasein which can be anticipated (vorlaufende Entschlossenheit) in order to operate the dissolution of the they-self (das Man) and a possible reframing of inauthentic existence in view of the angst of nihilation. In his effort of de-ontologizing philosophy, Levinás understands death as an event that takes down the present of the interestedness (intéressement) subject. Unlike the existential attraction in which finitude is posited in the Existential Analytic, Levinás claims that death is posited in the exterior of existence and that it is actualized as an anti-project. Death is a riddle. It is an inexplicable experience, an strange otherness that consumes the comprehensive powers of the subject; it makes it passive, draws the boundaries of reason and restricts the capacity to anticipate the most radical possibility of existence. Thus, Levinás believes that the death of the other is a “first death”, a concrete moral experience even more startling than the powers of death proper. The French philosopher conceives death as affection of the other in the Same. Therefore, it is possible to say that we die in the death of the other. We agonize in not having answers (a non-answer, the without-answer). We agonize in facing an absolute riddle and because others die along and one can neither “die for them” nor die one’s own death; neither one can be the owner of any power of decision, unless she approaches and take a voisinage (neighborliness). The essence of death lies in its feature as an eternal future. This way death configures a great metonymy of existence. It is not my death but the death of the other that is the first death. Such event introduces and reminds me to the fact that I am mortal. I am not constantly aware of mortality. The access to it – to my mortality, is given by the experience of death of the other. The angst that overcomes me is not fundamental. Instead, it is an a posteriori “feeling” which will constitute me as a singularity in this ulterior moment.
