To:              ETSI MEMBERS, OBSERVERS AND COUNSELLORS
Subject:     Establishment of a new Industry Specification Group (ISG) on cross-cutting Context Information Management (CIM)

Dear Madam,
Dear Sir,

I am very pleased to announce the establishment of a new ETSI Industry Specification Group (ISG) on ‘cross-cutting Context Information Management (CIM)’.

Data without context is meaningless. While the relevant context may be obvious for humans, it is not for ICT based applications, in particular for complex, cross-sector use cases like smart cities, where data may originate from many sources and may be used for diverse, even unknown future applications. A Context Information Management (CIM) system acts as a clearing-house for publishing, discovering, monitoring and maintaining data according to relevant contexts for smart applications.

ISG CIM will develop technical reports and specifications for applications to update, manage, and access context information based on domain specific information models, e.g. for smart cities, as well as publishing that information through interoperable data publication platforms. ISG CIM will provide a standardized Context Information Management solution to enable all interested stakeholders and organizations to develop interoperable software implementations, including open source implementations, fostering a plethora of smart city applications and beyond.

ISG CIM will reach out to relevant initiatives and cooperate closely to avoid any duplication of work. It will in particular coordinate its work with ETSI TC SmartM2M and the ETSI Partnership Project oneM2M.
