With the advent of the future Internet-of-Things, and consequent increasing complexity and diversification of the systems landscape, the interoperability becomes a critical requirement for this landscape's scalability and integrated, sustainable development. Can the current considerations of the interoperability paradigm meet these challenges? In this paper, we define the interoperability as a property of ubiquitous systems. In doing so, we use the anthropomorphic perspective to formally define this property's enabling attributes (namely, awareness, perceptivity, intelligence and extroversion), with objective to take the initial steps towards the Theory of Interoperability-of-Everything. The identified concepts and their interrelations are illustrated by the presented I-o-E ontology
