Re: [Bnbsg] Participate in IETF 90 Bits-N-Bites: Internet of Things (IoT)

[Alexa Morris <[e-mail]>]

Alex,

Thanks so much for your feedback! I modified the email below to include some small geo-networking reference. Basically in the paragraph about IETF 90 demonstrations I added, "Demonstrations on geo-networking and the surrounding privacy issues are also welcome.” and then I included your suggested demo topics in the list of demo examples that are bulleted. See below for proposed email:

Bits-N-Bites at IETF 90 in Toronto will focus on the Internet of Things, and the IETF invites you and your organization to participate!

The arrival of Things connected to the Internet in recent years has given life to new applications in both the consumer and industrial market segments. We are surrounded by products that utilize connectivity and a growing enthusiasm suggests imminent and impressive deployments: billions of new connected devices are expected by year 2020.  In the industrial world, wide spread wireless sensoring devices that collect data and measurements will move us into the next phase of process optimization. This will require the combination of the best of Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT), forming the IT/OT convergence.

When deploying multi-stage Thing topologies, two trends compete: IP protocols are enhanced and transformed into less end-to-end protocols (address translation, header compression, 'mesh under' routing and more) and, alternatively, existing IP protocols are reduced to their bare minimum such as to fit in reduced Things (reduced CPU frequency and number of transistors, dimensions and energy consumption).

IETF 90 demonstrations should exhibit recent developments of IP protocols for IoT networks (6lowpan adaptation layers, MANET and RPL routing protocols, 6tsch time-constrained communications, CoAP app-layer protocols) as well as demonstrations of the tendency of bringing the known IPv6 as close as possible to the Thing - minimum set of unmodified IPv6, Neighbor Discovery, DHCP, HTTP, IKEv2. Demonstrations on geo-networking and the surrounding privacy issues are also welcome.  

Does your organization want to reach 1,200 Internet engineers and demonstrate your IoT technologies and usage of IETF protocols? This is your opportunity to show leading industry professionals the latest and greatest of what you do in a social and interactive setting.

Examples of demos include, but are not limited, to:

• home automation controller using SNMP for HVAC and ambient temperature, electricity counter;
• industrial-grade Wireless Sensor Network products;
• scalable wireless designs and existing deployments;
• IPv6 end-to-end and backbone interconnection;
• tablet summarizing status of widespread devices through heterogeneous link connections;
• smart belt collecting body information with low-energy communication protocols;
• vehicle interior connected designs, vehicle-to-road sensor-based communications;
• sensor-assisted autonomous mobile Things (mono-, bi-, quad- wheeled or propelled devices);
• vehicular communications (e.g. dead-reckoning enhancements for enhanced GPS localization, geo-dissemination);
• service applications on smartphones (google "geofeeds", IP-to-LatLong-to-CivicAddress resolution mechanisms).

There many ways to configure your demo, such as: 

• Things deployed on a table, relying on local connections and alternatively exhibiting remote access across the Internet;
• a poster describing a demo;
• video sequence showing a lab demonstration.

Because typically geo-enabled devices are small and thus Things (e.g. GPS receiver), important in vehicular communications (geonet/its topic: dead-reckoning enhancements for enhanced GPS localization, geo-dissemination), service applications on smartphones (geopriv WG topics: google "geofeeds", IP-to-LatLong-to-CivicAddress resolution mechanisms).
