https://github.com/one-data-model/ietf108/blob/master/charter.md Charter proposal for an ASDF WG Name: A Semantic Definition Format for Data and Interactions of Things (ASDF) Revision: 0.1.0 Background Data and interaction models of IoT devices today exhibit unneeded diversity between different industry ecosystem standards development organizations (SDOs), hindering interoperability across these ecosystems with little discernible benefit from the diversity. Early 2019, One Data Model (OneDM) was started to bring several IoT SDOs and IoT device and platform vendors together under a broad, multi-party liaison agreement, with a goal of arriving at a common set of data and interaction models that describe IoT devices. Ideally, for every class of IoT device, there is just a single model selected/created by the participating organizations, which everyone can adopt. As a common language for writing down these models, the Semantic Definition Format (SDF) was created, which can represent IoT Things, their composition from reusable Objects, their Interaction Affordances (Properties, Actions, Events), and the data models relevant to describe these Affordances. SDF is representing these models in JSON, enabling re-use of specification formats such as CDDL (RFC8610) and the formats proposed at json-schema.org and their tooling, for describing both the SDF format itself and the structure of the data to be modelled in SDF. Some 200 models in SDF format have been contributed by participating ecosystems; new models are being submitted continually. Version 1.0 of the SDF specification was published on the OneDM github repository and as an Internet-Draft. OneDM is now focusing on consolidating the body of submitted models and developing processes for arriving at harmonized models that span different industry ecosystems in a common way; they look towards the IETF for developing SDF 1.0 further into a high-quality specification. * ASDF The objective of the ASDF WG will be to work with OneDM and its contributing organizations and develop SDF to an IETF-quality specification for Thing Interaction and Data Modelling. On the way to that specification, further functionality requirements will be addressed that emerge in the usage of SDF for model harmonization. In the process, some smaller pieces may become usable independently from SDF itself and its applications. JSON Path (similar to, but different in scope from JSON Pointer documented in RFC6901) might be an example for such a spin-off specification -- it is currently defined on a website and would benefit from a more formal definition so it can be used in discovery processes involving SDF models. The ASDF WG will work closely with the CBOR WG, home of the CDDL specification. It will also engage the still active mailing list of the dormant JSON WG. Recent proposals to form an IRTF formal description techniques (FDT) Research Group may lead to another collaboration partner. The Thing-to-Thing Research Group (T2TRG) and its WISHI program can be instrumental in engaging researchers and other SDOs in this space, for instance W3C WoT, which is working on Thing Description Templates and related specifications. -- Michael Richardson <mcr+IETF@sandelman.ca>, Sandelman Software Works -= IPv6 IoT consulting =-
