Social Internet of Things. City Pulse and SocioTal at Meetups and at EU Open Days. In The Open Days IoT Workshop - 9th October - Borschette centre, Mirko Presser will focus on the communication of IoT through scenarios.

City Pulse and SocioTal at Meetups and at EU Open Days

Mirko Presser is the Head of Research and Innovation for the Smart City Lab at the Alexandra Institute working on Open Data and the Internet of Things in the context of Smart Cities for Citizens. He is also the president of the IoT International Forum since it was founded in June 2013. The reason for talking about the IoT in terms of scenarios is to get an understanding of how widely the IoT will impact people, government and businesses – us. If we focus on technology, specifications, definitions, business or single elements only, we might make a nice product, standard or a lot of cash – but we do not understand the holistic impact the IoT has on us. Mirko will also bring from CityPulse some new way of talking about scenarios and involving people in filtering, aggregating and ranking them. Q1. A1. Cities do what big companies tell them to. Q2.

The opportunity, however, can best be understood in terms of vertical markets because the value of IoT is based on individual use cases across all verticals. “Successful sales and marketing efforts by vendors will be based on understanding the most lucrative verticals that offer current growth and future potential and then creating solutions for specific use cases that address industry-specific business processes,” said Scott Tiazkun, senior research analyst, IDC’s Global Technology and Industry Research Organization.” Tiazkun was referring to IDC’s latest Worldwide Internet of Things Spending by Vertical Market 2014-2017 Forecast.

Daniele Catteddu, CSA; Dr. Michaela Iorga, NIST; Marnix Dekkar, ENISA; Claudio Belloli, GSA Security and privacy certifications have been identified as one of the most effective means to increase the level of trust in cloud services and stimulate their adoption. Based on this assumption, it was critical to focus on the appropriate standards and their interoperability.

Therefore, a number of efforts have started in Europe, mainly led by the European Commission, in collaboration with ENISA and the Cloud Standards Coordination ETSI effort, as well as in the USA and other regions of the world. In this webinar the panellists will discuss the role that security certification and standards can play in supporting a more mature and pragmatic approach to cloud computing. On 2 October you will have the opportunity to ask questions in this interactive webinar.
