China Has Been Actively Engaged In International Standards activities The standardisation of IoT has been universally recognised as an important subject in China. Chinese research bodies and enterprises are actively engaged in the international standardisation of IoT, such as ISO/IEC, ITU-T,3GPP and ETSI. For example, CCSA IDT adopted OneM2M release one in 2016. 24 10

National Standards Development Accelerate the key and urgently needed standards development Define the overall and annual standards promotion plan, and establish a comprehensive, long-term, continuous promotion mechanism Future Work Plan International Standardization Establishment of the mechanism to coordinate and increase the international and domestic work Actively participate the international standardization 25 Standard Adoption &Promotion Extract typical requirements from regional scale application to promote standards Establish IoT standard service system, including consulting, training, testing, evaluation 11

Key challenges Different departments and organizations are doing overlapping and conflicting standards in this area The introduction of Association Standards into China standardization system make the situation even worse. As IoT is a new and comprehensive topic, it is sometimes very difficult to find the right or powerful players The technologies and standards are under the competition or market decision stage. 26

Key challenges Europe CEN/CENELEC and ETSI are in charge of IoT standards drafting Currently, neither CEN nor CENELEC have technical bodies addressing IoT or IoT applications CEN-CENELEC-ETSI Coordination Groups : on Smart Cities SSCC-CG (also with ISO, IEC, UN, ITU-T..), Smart Meters SM-CG and Smart Grid SEG-CG Alliance for Internet of Things Innovation (AIOTI) China Many different organizations are making standards, including many Assocations SAC national IoT Working Groups, There is lacking of coordination in China IoT Standards Drafting Although China Sensor Network and IoT Industry Alliance was set up in 2016, it is not unified or powerful yet 27

Existing international partnerships EU-CHINA IoT working Group (DG CNECT MIIT) CCSA joined OneM2M partner project and made the IDT adoption of ETSI standards China-France Sustainable / smart cities standardization cooperation. China-UK Sustainable / smart cities standardization cooperation. China Germany Industry 4.0 working Group 28
