IAB IoT Semantic Interoperability Workshop 2016

[Amyas Phillips]

Hi folks

This IAB workshop may be of interest:

https://www.iab.org/activities/workshops/iotsi/

The IAB occasionally decides to simulate IETF work in a particular area.  This usually involves producing documents that describe general technical principles which are believed to be necessary to the proper functioning of the Internet.  

This workshop is the IAB reaching out to get a better understanding of the state-of-the-art and state-of-alignment between the various organisations working on application-layer IoT standards, to help it figure out whether it ought to take a position, and if so, what.  The result may be that the IAB decides to recommend some architectural principles for IoT interoperability.  

The focus is clearly data and information models.  Hypercat has a lot to contribute precisely because it puts those out of scope.  What Hypercat can influence is the IAB’s views on what should and should not be standardised, and how to achieve simultaneously interoperability and permissionless innovation.

  
·         Position paper deadline is the February 22nd, 2016 (necessary to get invited)
·         The workshop takes place in  San Jose, California, on March 17-18, 2016 

Many rgds
