Abstract
With rapid development of the Internet of Things and cloud computing, a new world, called 'hyper world', is emerging by coupling and empowering humans in the social world, information in the cyber world, and things in the physical world. The notion of 'Wisdom Web of Things (W2T)' is a novel vision for computing and intelligence in the post-WWW era with data, connection and service explosions, recently put forward by a group of leading researchers from the fields of Web Intelligence (WI), Ubiquitous Intelligence (UI), Brain Informatics (BI), and Cyber Individual (CI). The W2T is an extension of the wisdom Web in the IoT/WoT (Internet/Web of Things) age. The 'wisdom' means that each of things in the IoT/WoT can be aware of both itself and others so as to provide the right service to the right object at the right time and in the right context.
