1 - IoT Meetup, Guildford
Boosting IoT Interoperability F-Interop projects
Guildford, July 19th
Michele Nati, Lead Technologist Personal Data and Trust Digital Catapult, London @michelenati [email protected]
3 - IoT Meetup, Guildford
The Opportunity
● 60% of the IoT value is currently hindered by lack of interoperability ¢ Mckinsey Report: http://tinyurl.com/jqpymqu
4 - IoT Meetup, Guildford
The Challenges
● Interoperability requires tests, validation and certification ¢ Conformance
■ Test against reference implementations
¢ Interoperability ■ Test against other vendor implementations
¢ Performance ■ How protocols can be improved and scale?
5 - IoT Meetup, Guildford
The Barriers
● SMEs are driven by time-to-market ● Standards are driven by large organizations
¢ If not open, membership might be otherwise expensive
● Tests require physical meetings and complex logistics ¢ Plugfest
¢ Managing confidentiality of information
● Certification process might be long and costly
6 - IoT Meetup, Guildford
F-Interop Project
● EU H2020 F-Interop project is researching and developing online remote interoperability and performance test tools for emerging IoT-related technologies
● It aims to: ¢ Support researchers communities, SMEs involved
¢ Integrating and extending several European testbeds
¢ Researching and developing online testing tools for IoT
¢ Developing online certification and labelling mechanisms
7 - IoT Meetup, Guildford
The Testing Life Cycle
● Test Description (TD) ¢ Describe the test scenario, any language
● Test Script (TS) ¢ Set of actions to implement the scenario
¢ Exchange of information between IUTs (interoperability) and IUT and test system (conformance)
● Test Analysis (TA) ¢ Analyze, compare messages, generate verdict (pass
or fail)
9 - IoT Meetup, Guildford
The F-Interop Platform Roles
● Testbed owner ¢ Who integrates a testing facilities with the F-Interop
platform (more devices, more infrastructure, etc) ● Platform contributor
¢ Who provides tools for supporting the testing life cycle of supported protocols or new ones
● Platform user ¢ Who uses the platform and provides new TD, TS, TA

“Currently” Federated Testbeds Capabilities● Fed4FIRE (http://www.fed4fire.eu/testbeds/)
federates 24 FIRE+ testbeds, bringing together cloud, IoT, wireless, wireless mobile, LTE, cognitive radio, 5G, openflow, SDN, NFV and network emulation technologies
● OneLab (https://onelab.eu/) federates testbeds for the future Internet, including IoT, cognitive radio, wireless and overlay network technologies
● IoT lab9 (http://www.iotlab.eu/) federates crowd sourcing and crowd sensing testbeds, including smart campus, smart building and smart office testbed (low end IoT device, sensor platforms)
