IoT Standardisation has been addressed in all SDOs (ETSI, IETF, NIST..) and industry associations. ETSI has been leading this fundamental work with M2M, oneM2M, 3GPP with MTC and recently with IP6 ISG: https://portal.etsi.org/home.aspx

However, there is still a great number of non-IP IoT protocols designed for the various industry sectors and the move to IP is non-evident if not perceived as a threat.

Furthermore, there is a growing confusion in the market and among researchers that IoT is not simply an evolution of the Internet but should be defined differently.

This session will run through the maze of IoT standards in the Telecom and ISP world as well different industry standards presenting the challenges and solutions such as IPv6-based Internet Protocols being considered in the context of several deployment scenarios or pre-standardization around the world.

Christoph Meinel (Univ. Prof., Dr. rer. nat., Dr. sc. nat., 1954) is CEO and Scientific Direc-tor of the Hasso Plattner Institute for IT Systems Engineering GmbH (HPI) at the Universi-ty of Potsdam. He is full professor (C4) for computer science at HPI and the University of Potsdam, and he holds the chair of Internet Technologies and Systems. Meinel is a member of the National Academy of Science and Engineering (acatech), Chairman of the German IPv6 Council, and director of different project groups in the German National IT Summit. He is a member of numerous scientific committees and supervisory boards, such as the SAP Se-curity Advisory Board, and, together with Larry Leifer, leads the program of the HPI Stanford Design Thinking Research Program.

IPv6 Forum is a world-wide consortium of international Internet service providers (ISPs) and National Research & Education Networks (NRENs), with a mission to promote IPv6 by improving market and user awareness, creating a quality and secure New Generation Internet and allowing world-wide equitable access to knowledge and technology. The key focus of the IPv6 Forum today is to provide technical guidance for the deployment of IPv6. IPv6 Summits are organized by the IPv6 Forum and staged in various locations around the world to provide industry and market with the best available information on this rapidly advancing technology.
