14. WP2 Contribution
WP2 - Core Module Integration & Gateway SW framework
development
◦ T2.2 Analysis and Integration of IoT Standards [M0-M03]
Will happen at the beginning of the project.
Deliver an overview of the IoT/M2M communication protocols and
standard that will be integrated within AGILE
Based on the Eclipse Foundation which has an important experience
with IoT projects and its connection with the IoT community.
AGILE KICK-OFF MEETING, 12-14 January 2016, Trento IT

15. WP3 Contribution
WP3 - Device, Data Management & Developers Environment
Development
◦ T3.1 Open source component evaluation [M01-M03]
Analyze the existing Eclipse IoT projects, and existing IoT open source
initiatives
Determine which open source components is about:
◦ device discovery and management,
◦ data management and
◦ IoT app workflow development
Which component can be integrated into the platform.

18. AGILE Expected Outcome
Eclipse IoT SW is adopted and disseminated in AGILE Project
Eclipse IoT SW gets promoted as the leading Open Source IoT stack
Continue to grow user IoT community
◦ Getting new new technologies a Eclipse IoT OS projects
◦ Getting new Eclipse IoT members
AGILE KICK-OFF MEETING, 12-14 January 2016, Trento IT

19. AGILE Roadmap alignment
Adoption of the Eclipse IoT stack
Workshops at Eclipse events
Create value for Eclipse members
• Extend the Eclipse technology stack for collaboration/exploitation
opportunities for members.
Reinforce Eclipse IoT platform leadership
• Become the de facto standard for “open source” IoT gateways
AGILE KICK-OFF MEETING, 12-14 January 2016, Trento IT

20. AGILE Risks
Delay in the creation of the open source projects
• Partners legal department taking more time to process
membership/committers agreements
• Disagreement about what should be open source and what should be kept
as partner added value
Delays in technical deliverables
• Demonstrator not ready for a conference
• Unforeseen technical issues

21. Remarks
• Open source is a good channel for dissemination
• Eclipse is all about “business friendly” open source
• Eclipse Foundation has experience leading dissemination efforts of
other research projects:
• The ITEA OPEES project was receiving a project award for creating an open
source ecosystem as a result of a research project.
• The Eclipse Foundation Europe leads the dissemination efforts of the
Amalthea4Public
• The Eclipse Foundation Europe will lead the dissemination efforts of the
Ecsel AMASS project (starting April)
