The Internet of Things is turning into an explosive topic in today's technology world. Smart Things are becoming more prevalent in both business and personal use. A large number of IoT platforms have been introduced in the last few years. The major issue with available Internet of Things platforms, that support the communication between Things and their owners, is that they view Things as private property. Only the Thing owner can communicate with the Thing to obtain the service or functionality that is provided by the Thing. But this view is short sighted. A Thing should be viewed as a service or a functionality provider. Our research is concerned with introducing an architecture that supports the publication and discovery of Things in the Internet of Things. This architecture enables Thing owners to publish Thing specification and Thing requesters to find Things that best matches their needs. This paper is concerned with the composition of Things defined using our new architecture.
