- IoT European Research Cluster -Role Bring together the EU-funded projects and policy activities with the aim of: Sustaining Europe s leading position in the future Internet of Things within a global context
IoT European Research Cluster In the new scope given from Horizon 2020 the IoT Cluster will be involved in the integration and coordination between the European programmes and national initiatives in the area of IoT that offers the needed innovation-oriented, industrydriven approach in order to implement the research results in different applications The IoT European Research Cluster - European Research Cluster on the Internet of Things () aims at defining the IoT technology and development research challenges at the European level in the view of global development. Europe IoT
IoT European Research Cluster The motivation: Need for a multi stakeholder and ecosystem perspective rather than the deployment of individual, not compatible technical solutions Strong basis of research, smart systems, manufacturing and integration providers in Europe but lack of ecosystem(s) for creating a strong IoT take-up Need for integration of various disciplines results Cloud technologies, Big Data, cyber-physical systems, components, network technologies, privacy & security technologies Coherent strategy for IoT international cooperation focusing on architectures, semantics, security and privacy, standardisation Rapid IoT Application Deployment
IoT European Research Cluster Activity chains cooperation under 4 main areas: Architecture approaches, open platforms, 1 naming, search, discovery 2 Governance issues, privacy and security 3 Interoperability, standardisation 4 IoT Technologies
IoT European Research Cluster Naming and addressing schemes. Means of search and discovery Architecture approaches and open platforms Application scenarios, Pilots and Innovation Cognitive Technologies for IoT Activity Chains Standardisation and pre-regulatory research Societal Impact and Responsibility in the Context of IoT Applications Governance, Privacy and Security issues Service openness and interoperability issues/semantic interoperability
Internet of Things Megatrend Devices, communication, control, data, processes, people While the fixed Internet connected 1 billion users via PCs, and the mobile Internet connected 2 billion users via smartphones (on its way to 6 billion), the IoT is expected to connect 28 billion things to the Internet by 2020.

Internet of Things Megatrend Rallying points in the new IoT revolution: Strong business and use cases that show value Communications technology (meaning Wi-Fi, expanded cellular service, and fog computing) Hardware (sensors, connectivity devices, and microcontrollers). Scalability, security, privacy, device management Provision, delivery of software, capacity and updates to the device - monetize additional functionality Data belongs to? Source: Goldman Sachs
Internet of Things Megatrend Challenges Flexible and agile networks, making use of network function virtualisation (NFV) and software defined networking (SDN). Heterogeneous development. network Mix of small cells and big cells and different urban and rural environments Scalability, latency Harmonized radio spectrum to ensure global interoperability Image Credit: Grey Carnation
Internet of Things Megatrend Challenges Connectivity - consistent and reliable. Devices need to be connected reliably 100% of the time. Trust - ensure that devices are only accessed by their designated users, that their data is encrypted, and that the devices aren't vulnerable. Presence Detection ability to detect and monitor that devices are online and fix any that come off of your network. Power Efficiency efficient power consumption through monitoring behavior. Bandwidth - consume bandwidth, networks to support all devices 5G.
Internet of Things Standardization Need for openness and improve security for accessing mobile applications, data, and services anytime, anywhere, and from any device. APIs becoming the communication framework Integration point cloud/fog services and APIs Application programming interface (API) standardisation Standards on Identity and Authentication Oauth, OpenID Connect, SCIM (System for Cross-domain Identity Management) Recommendation standards identity management and federation Old requirements - security, management, interoperability, and openness.
Internet of Things Standardization What things get connected Who controls the data being exchanged Standardization great for companies that sell infrastructure. Differentiation vs standardisation Verticals challenge: Conflict between platform-building and X-making, and between two industries with different approaches, different business models, and different economics. Various sub-systems in a smart-x Convergence, integration, interaction among smart-xs Networks of smart-xs Larger ecosystem smart-xs Increased interface with smart-xs stakeholders

Standardization Process - IoT Complex process Involves customers, suppliers and competitors Sometimes competition among different committees and standardization bodies Separates domains, technologies, communities (vertical and horizontal fragmentation) Time-lagged and long-term process, usually fixes 1-5 years old state of the art rather than state of science and technology.

Role of standardization in IoT The concept of connecting any object to the Internet could be one of the biggest standardization challenges. The success of the IoT is depending on the development of interoperable global standards.
IoT Standardization - Needs Global harmonization of Internet of Things standardization activities. Develop a basic framework of standards (e.g., concept, terms, definition, relation with similar technologies). Develop a harmonized roadmap for IoT standards (collaboration).
IoT Standardization - Needs Encourage joint IoT standards activities. Define the relationship between "IoT paradigm or concept" and enabling technologies such as 5G, USN, NID, FI, Cloud, M2M, etc. Extend and facilitate international cooperation among European and international, standardization bodies.
Book 2013 Cluster Book 2014 SRIA findings are included in Chapter 3 of Cluster Book 2014 and issued to develop research programs and projects in the future. Creativity is inventing, experimenting, growing, taking risks, breaking rules, making mistakes, and having fun. Mary Lou Cook
