Serendipity of Internet of Things (ioT) services will lead to highly innovative applications, including the crowdsharing of a wide array of services such as wireless energy services and other digital services. The service paradigm lends itself nicely to the modeling of, and delivering on IoT. Each ‘thing’ is modeled as a service with a set of purposes, that is, functionalities, delivered with a set of quality of services, or non-functional properties. The QoS can be used as a discriminant to select the best IoT service. Augmenting IoT with services promises to deliver the same exciting outcomes as what the Web has achieved when it augmented the Internet. This led to a fundamental positive change in how humanity engages in all aspects of life.
