FUTURE VISIONS OF „SMART LIVING“

• IoT, M2M, Smart City's, Smart Products, Smart Production, Smart Energy, Industrie 4.0, Industrial Internet, 5G, … will all contribute to the future of „smart living“

• Key feature will be easy, flexible, secure mesh-up

• Some roles and players: – developers, platform providers, customers, service

providers, device manufacturers, municipalities, …

• Industrial use-cases & infrastructures should explicitly be included into the overall vision – E.g. smart products, logistics, …

HGI‘S ROLE IN THE ECOSYSTEM • The Home has been the first consumer environment to become

connected and smart …

• … with a multitude of different use cases, manufacturers, technologies, service providers, users, …

• The Home Gateway remains the key architectural component in the home

• An operator driven collaborative approach to specify requirements from a business, service and user perspective

• Concrete results with relevance for the industry through close cooperation with complementary organizations (e.g. OSGi Alliance, BBF, DECT Forum, …)

• HGI first interaction with oneM2M during oneM2M formation phase in Berlin, Dec. 2011

– HGI was invited as “vertical industry representative”

– And became a member type 2

• Use Cases - already with a tendency to transcend beyond the home

• Smart Home Architecture based on software modularity Open Platform 2.0, – Test Cases & Test Suite

setup for remote testing

• … defining an Abstraction Layer, Reference Points and a Smart Device Template (SDT) to describe device capabilities in a unified way

• Wireless HAN Requirements – SECURITY – CONNECTIVITY MANAGEMENT – MANAGEMENT AND MAINTENANCE OF DEVICES – PERFORMANCE – INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION OF DEVICES

GENERALIZING THE HGI SMART HOME APPROACH?

• Home Domain is a (one)M2M vertical (besides e.g. the vehicular and industrial domains)

• HGI approach on – Gateway & Smart Home Architecture – Abstraction Layer & Device Modeling with

SDT

• … can in principle be applied to other verticals and developed into enablers for cross-domain interoperability

• Applying and developing these concepts further in oneM2M has started based on SDT.
