Towards the Cross-Domain Interoperability
of IoT Platforms

• Increase of connected smart devices
– reports from CISCO, Gartner, …
• Estimated growth of IoT business
– reports from CISCO, GSMA, …
• Vertical, specialized IoT platforms
– domain-specific & isolated
barriers
IoT landscape

• Need for cross-domain apps
– Strategic partnerships, federations, etc..
• Collocation of platforms
– Inefficiencies, high costs
• Operation/maintenance of e2e infrastructure
– High market barriers
• Will a single
standard/technology/
protocol prevail?

• Through federations, IoT solutions can
– provide cross-domain solutions
– share / use external resources
• Federations don’t enforce decisions on
platforms
– Rather decide on the inter-platform
communication, common semantic model for
meta-data, etc..
• Interoperability can be achieved in diff levels
– Cloud level (mediation or direct)
– Gateway level (direct)
IoT Platform Federations
6. © 2016 – The symbIoTe Consortium6
• Need to address cross-domain, everyday life
needs
• Wrap platform offerings in a “Sensing as a
Service” manner under domain enablers
– Not necessarily give access to raw data or single
sensors/actuators
• Application developers can use domain
enablers to create cross-domain apps
– also IoT platforms can use domain enablers
Domain enablers
7. © 2016 – The symbIoTe Consortium7
• Plethora of devices heavy equipment
footprint
• Collocation of devices reduce deployment
costs
• Collocated IoT platforms can
– cooperate by opening APIs in a SaaS manner
– collaborate by sharing physical resources
• Resource bartering/trading aspects
– sustainability of solutions
Sharing of resources
8. © 2016 – The symbIoTe Consortium8
• Federations bring new considerations in the
IoT value chain
– Stakeholders to enable federations?
• Bilateral collaborations
– SLAs for resource sharing
• Wider federations
– New role: virtual IoT (vIoT) provider
• Broker, clearing point, marketplace for domain enables
– New stakeholder?
• Move competition away from “own platforms”
– focus on innovative applications
New business models
9. © 2016 – The symbIoTe Consortium9
• symbiosis of smart objects across IoT
environments
• aims at the collaboration of vertical IoT
platforms towards the creation of cross-
domain applications
The symbIoTe Approach
10. © 2016 – The symbIoTe Consortium10
• Cross-layer approach based on IoT stack
– Cloud gateway smart devices
Tech Overview
Cooperation and
resource discovery
across platforms
Federation of
platforms; resource
bartering/trading
Dynamic device
discovery; sharing
of wireless
medium; sharing
resources
Device roaming;
self-organization of
devices

• symbIoTe: not yet another IoT platform
– enable cooperation between platforms
• Synergies
– mapping to IoT-A ARM’s functional model
– consider OneM2M, OGC’s SensorThings and
W3C’s Web of Things Interest Group for IoT
interoperability
– use OpenIoT platform as reference IoT platform
• Invest on Open Source
– attract developers community in early stages
Architectural considerations

Use Cases
Use Case Focus
Smart Residence Interoperability of collocated deployments within smart
spaces
Smart Campus IoT platform federation within the cloud domain
Smart Stadium Interoperability of cooperative platforms at the
application domain
Smart Mobility and
Ecological Routing
Interoperability of cooperative platforms at the
application domain; potential for resource
bartering/trading
Smart Yachting Interoperability of cooperative platforms at the
application domain with time- and safety-critical
requirements
