In the past years the role of standardisation as a bridge between research activities and the market has been increasingly recognised, both by EU institutions and by R&D stakeholders. The incorporation of the latest knowledge into new standards can provide the foundation for further developments, new research and ultimately new knowledge, creating a virtuous knowledge circle of standards and research. This workshop, co-organised by NGIoT, AIOTI and the IoT Forum will be composed of three online webinars. It will start by identifying and discussing the latest developments and priorities in the domain of Internet of Things (IoT) and Edge computing standardisation. It will identify and discuss priority needs from the industry with regards to IoT and Edge Computing standardisation. The webinar will discuss how these various efforts can converge to support globally interoperable IoT and edge computing technologies and how can upcoming research support this development, including in specific verticals such as industrial IoT, telecommunication services, health, home, energy and mobility.
 

Key Objectives

• Identify current and future priority needs for IoT and edge computing standardisation.
• Information sharing on the latest developments related to IoT and edge computing standardisation.
• Support dialogue and collaboration among IoT related SDOs to foster convergence towards globally interoperable solutions for the IoT and edge computing across domains.
• Elaborate and propose a proactive strategy for enhancing the contribution of European research projects to global standardisation effort.
• Identifying the driving sectors in IoT Edge computing standardisation

Session titles

• IoT and Edge Computing Standardisation Challenges
• European Research and Standardisation in IoT and Edge Computing for Industrial IoT, Telecommunications and Automotive Domains
• European Research and Standardisation in IoT and Edge Computing for Home, Living, Energy and Mobility

Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) bring with them many positive potential benefits such as the reduction of pollution, traffic congestion, and even the minimisation of road accidents. Such benefits, however, do not come without a number of serious risks from the ethical, data protection, and cybersecurity perspectives. This webinar will provide a general overview of the privacy, data protection, ethical, and cybersecurity aspects of CAVs based on experience gained in the nIoVe project and on the research carried out by NGIoT.

Speakers

• Kate Francis, ICT Legal Consulting -nIoVe
• Francesco Capparelli, Istituto Italiano per la Privacy – NGIoT
• Vito Michele Pavese, ICT Legal Consulting -nIoVe
• Alice Audino, Istituto Italiano per la Privacy – NGIoT

The purpose of this half-day workshop is to:
• identify research, innovation and deployment priorities;
• identify trends and gaps related to the uptake of IoT and addressing convergence of IoT with other technologies, specifically, the current shift from cloud to edge in the domain of manufacturing;
• address challenges that cut across the verticals and to provide a platform for discussion and exchange of learnings and use cases;
• mobilise communities around the identified solutions and the upcoming calls under the Horizon Europe and Digital Europe Programme.

The objective of these thematic workshops is to mobilise the community in anticipation of the upcoming Horizon Europe and Digital Europe programmes, and to consolidate priorities from the communities of stakeholders in a roadmap for Europe (the main objective for NGIoT), both relating to technologies and with respect to supporting the range of relevant policies, including the green deal.

The afternoon of 30 March 2021 will be dedicated to presentations and discussions in the domain of agrifood and rural smart communities. The workshop will bring together the visions on smart communities from several associations and projects: Living-in.EU, AURORAL and dRural and the more sectoral aspects DEMETER, ATLAS, IoF2020 and SmartAgriHubs.

The economy of rural smart communities in Europe is a key focus area for the European Commission, both short-term in securing equal access to connectivity and services and as part of the long-term vision for rural areas. As the pandemic has shown, the rural areas are surging in popularity for both short- and long-term relocation. At the same time, rural areas are linked to urban areas, through people, economy, territory – and food.

In spring 2021, NGIoT workshops are dedicated to IoT and Edge computing in 6 key application domains: Smart Cities & Communities; Agrifood and rural communities (30 March); manufacturing; automotive industry and mobility (27 April); energy and health (18 May).

The purpose of the workshop is to:

• identify research, innovation and deployment priorities long term, with a specific focus on the green and digital transformation of European cities and communities
• identify trends and gaps related to the advance of IoT in urban areas and communities leading to sustainable pathways,
• opportunities related to the convergence of IoT with other technologies, specifically, the current shift from cloud to edge; digital twins, and AIOT based services
• mobilise the communities around the identified solutions and the upcoming calls under the Horizon Europe and Digital Europe Programme.

Special attention will be given to the role of “Edge Nodes”, which are part of Europe’s Digital Decade, and the goal of 10,000 climate-neutral edge nodes. Also, the role of and potential investments in Device Gateway Platforms in the context of data spaces, platforms and digital twins will be explored

Hosted by NGIoT and EU-IoT projects with Living-in.EU, OASC, EUROCITIES, AIOTI, FIWARE Foundation and the European Commission.
