Thierry, all,

Let me slightly refine what you said.


(a)    M2M Gateway
I think you pointed especially at the functionality of a 3GPP device to act as
an M2M Gateway towards a M2M Area Network. Rightfully you pointed out
that this needs device specific interfaces. IMHO, this plays well with the
Communication Abstraction Layer in 5.1 which should provide the means
to talk to the device specific interfaces. If this is the same as the ones
provided by I2ND, we have a clear synergy and advantage.
But it might be very specific and going through just another abstraction
layer might be contraproductive.

(b)   M2M Device
3GPP devices have their own sensors, so they can be M2M Devices.
I2ND would then provide the interfaces to the sensor API.
Same argumentation as in (a) applies... Our abstraction alyer and their abstraction
layer need to be cross checked. Maybe simple plugin architectures might
be more simple?

(c)    Hosting / Dynamic Resource Creation
IMHO, the level of granularity for a complete VM is not good enough for the
kind of processing we expect for IoT. I expect that we want to create very dynamically
new resource functions on the devices/gateway, e.g. for smart filtering. Always sending
sown a VM will not help ;-)
Maybe I misunderstood Cloud proxy, but if it is just VM hosting, then this is not good enough.
I expect Dynamic Resource Creation on the level of OSGi bundles.

(d)   Reachability
IMHO, it is not yet granted that a 3GPP device can be reached from the network
side. Usually it is behind Firewalls/NATs. So it can reach out, but not be called back.
So I expect mechanisms on the level of WebSockets (or the like) for clean functions
calls and eventing.

(e)   3GPP network mechanism
3GPP is defining MTC (Machine Type Communications) extension, so we should expect
the enabler to make these functionality available to us. This is really low-level communication
and management of the devices, e.g. when to wake up, Firmware updates, Configurations, ...


Hope this helps ? Where to we collect this requirements?

-          Ernö

Hi Sabrina,

I fully agree with the Martin's point of view. Basically, we have 2 interactions with I2ND:

1-      How to reach 3GPP devices: here we expect a clear interface that T5.1 could use as for other devices (Zigbee, etc...) As I2ND has a dedicated GE for 3GPP devices maybe the first approach is to ask them what kind of API they will propose and what parameters of 3GPP devices would be available to send/receive data. If we have a SOAP interface we would be able to host in 3GPP devices part of the gateway, so some smart features from T5.2, T5.3 & T5.4 but we have to be able to manage the first step of connectivity to enable the SOAP session.

2-      Cloud proxy: beyond Linux proxy, how could we host the gateway in this cloud proxy? What would be the capabilities (and performance) of this cloud proxy to host gateway services and smart things connectivity. This connectivity should include dedicated communication cards with different standards (wifi, zigbee, blutooth...) Are these cards available in the cloud proxy, how many? And do we have a VM per card as a VM for the gateway? Is it possible to host in this cloud proxy our database services (local database + synchronization with database in the cloud + discovery services)? One of the main concern, as I have understood the cloud proxy, is that there are at least 2 firewalls so how would it be possible to go through these firewalls for IoT services?

Best regards

Thierry

Hi Sabrina,

I am not sure, if the interfaces being discussed are all on the same level. The OMA NGSI interface would rather
be between WP5 and WP6 (Data / context management services) , rather than I2ND. Regarding OGC and
especially ETSI M2M I'm not 100% sure, but we are more looking at the T5.4/5.2 related interfaces than T5.1.
I would see I2ND rather on the lower level communication-related interfaces, but maybe I'm mistaken there.

Best regards,

Martin

Hi Ricardo,

Thank you for your answer but our doubt is that there are 2 running activities (cross-work between I2ND and IoT and task-force on standards) that have the same objective (defining the interfaces from IoT SE Platform and Cloud Proxy) and we wouldn't want to create an overlap.
Best regards,

Sabrina Guerra

HI Sabrina,

SensorAPI is the standard used between the concentrator/Gateway and the platform, this is the way used for example in IDAS,
so I understand NGSI could apply in the same scope, but out of the scope of the sensors' protocols at the low level (Zigbee, Bluetooth, etc.) layer within T5.1
OK?

br,
Ricardo.

Hi all,

currently it's starting a cross-work between I2ND and IoT to define the interfaces/protocols between IoT SE Platform and Cloud Proxies. In your opinion which are the interactions between this cross-work and task-force you are proposing?

Dear Martin,

just for clarifying this issue,

what I proposed was to create a 'Task force' for defining in the short term how we can make compatible the OGC SensorAPI and OMA NGSI standards, in the same way we followed to present (Dénes) NGSI vs ETSI M2M last Friday on the call.

Indeed I proposed this work can be led by NEC and TID at least, so I understand you welcome this proposal;)
thanks,

br,
Ricardo.

Dear Dénes, all,

I slightly updated the minutes from last week's telco. Apparently my voice was not recognized in a few places and some
comments were attributed to me that I did not make (maybe they were made by Maarten Los, please check).
Sorry for not introducing myself when making a comment.

https://forge.fi-ware.eu/docman/view.php/11/492/IoT-Minutes-Telco-10142011.docx

Another question: regarding the different standards - it seems that a task force has been established, but this does
not become clear from the minutes. We think that NEC, as co-author of the OMA NGSI context management interface,
should participate - we also have some knowledge on ETSI M2M and to a lesser degree on the OGC standards.

Best regards,

Martin
