Linklets are location-independent web services, which consume and produce Linked Data resources. These resources form a web of data - the semantic web - that is an abstraction of the web 2.0. However, enterprises are reluctant to provide valuable Linked Data resources due to missing financial stimuli. Operations are not representable in the semantic web.
Linklets aim to solve both problems. Previous work developed a prototype. The goal of this thesis is to enhance it by a component model, a formal description and a permission model. A business model has to be developed.
This thesis follows a bottom-up approach. The formalization of the Linklet concept creates a foundation. Then, an improved architecture and its reference implementation are studied. It is evaluated by tests, show cases and economic considerations.
The resulting component system is based on web-service component systems, while a sandbox concept is the core of the permission model. The formal description shows limits of OWLs open world assumption. A platform leader strategy is the foundation for the business model.
In conclusion, the advantages of the Linklet concept provide a way to enhance and monetize the value of the semantic web. Further research is required; the practical use has to be considered.
