1st Draft for Defining IoT (1) 1. Proposed Title: IoT “Internet of Things” or “Intelligence of Things” or “Interconnecting of Things” 2. Proposed Definition “A global ICT infrastructure enabling automated progression of actions (not necessarily explicitly intervened by human being) facilitating assembly of the knowledge, and contributing to enrich human life by interconnecting physical and virtual objects [including sensors, devices and machines] through the exploitation of data capture and communication capabilities supported by existing and evolving telecommunication developments. It will offer relevant identification to object as the basis for the development of independent cooperative services and applications.“ Definition of Object: A combination of state and a set of methods that explicitly embodies an abstraction characterized by the behavior of the relevant requests. An object is an instance of an implementation and an interface. An object models a real-world-entity, and it is implemented as a computational entity that encapsulates state and operations (internally implemented as data and methods) and responds to requester services.

1st Draft for Defining IoT (3) 6. Use Cases assumed by IoT Metering (electricity, gas, water and others) Sensor (temperature, disaster, heart beat and others) Actuator (open/close pipe, turn off power and others) Remote video surveillance (office security system, traffic monitoring and others) Tag and RFID 7. Key Features Identification of relevant entity Detection of environmental change (conditions including location), which triggers next actions Transformation of data into consolidated information, knowledge and wisdom Group and global sensing (decision making by majority or depending on the importance of the cause) Aggregation (total, average, and statistical values) Estimation (for trend analysis and future estimation) Customization Intelligent data processing using ontology and semantic level handling Based on the knowledge, Application will make a decision, which drives further actions

1st Draft for Defining IoT (5) 9. Communication Types Relation TSDM(Tag/Sensor/Device/Machine)-to-Server (many-to-one or one-to-one) TSDM-to-TSDM Addressing (grouping), connectivity scope, and security Identification by group Global, Closed. One device can be used by multiple servers? Traffic pattern Direction: Upstream only or both ways Every 30 seconds, 30 minutes, 24 hours? One packet or more? Simultaneously or independently Continuous or very scattered Mobility Frequent mobility or very stable Required QoS and QoE Delay tolerant or very stringent 100% or not Intra user network communication?
