4. Anti-trust Policy
www.aimglobal.org
It is the policy of the AIM Inc. to conduct its operations in strict compliance
with the antitrust laws. No AIM activities shall create even the appearance of a
violation of the letter or spirit of the antitrust laws. This policy prohibits any
discussion at AIM's meetings of unpublished commercial terms of sales,
unannounced product development or unpublished cost and revenue data of a
member. It is not appropriate for members to discuss competitive business
terms with an intent to explicitly or implicitly form an agreement or
understanding which restricts the exercise of independent business judgment,
especially with regard to price, selection of customers, and markets in which it
competes.
All attendees are permitted and encouraged to actively participate in all
meeting discussions and activities as defined in the AIM Member Participation
and Collaborative Guidelines. If any participant believes the group is drifting
toward impermissible discussion, the topic shall be tabled until the opinion of
counsel can be obtained.

5. Collaboration and Work Product Policy
www.aimglobal.org
AIM is proud to be the industry association and worldwide authority on barcode, RFID, RTLS
and mobile computing, and is on the cutting edge of development in these areas. Our
members have a long history of working together to provide a collaborative global influence
on emerging technologies and innovation.
AIM committee meetings are held for the primary purpose of advancements in our industry,
which necessarily involves development of work product intended solely for the public
domain. AIM has developed this Policy for the protection of its members who engage in this
important collaborative effort.
All information shared in this process shall be non-confidential and shared for the common
purpose of producing work product for the public domain. No proprietary information,
confidential information, or trade secrets should be shared during any AIM meeting.
Additionally, information developed during AIM committee meetings should not be shared
with others outside of this
collaborative process until finalized and formally announced by AIM such as public review or
standards documents or finalized issued standards.
These limitations are necessary to protect and safeguard the integrity of the collaborative
process, AIM members, and AIM itself. All meetings shall be conducted in a manner that
avoids the appearance of any conduct that might violate this policy.

6. About AIM

10. Many Definitions of the IoT
 “The Internet of Things is a network of Internet-enabled
objects, together with web services that interact with
these objects. Underlying the Internet of Things are
technologies such as RFID (radio frequency
identification), sensors, and smartphones.”
via ReadWriteWeb
 Oxford describes it as, “A proposed development of the
Internet in which everyday objects have network
connectivity, allowing them to send and receive data.”
www.aimglobal.org

11. What is IoT?
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a global network infrastructure,
linking physical and virtual objects through the use of interoperable
data capture and communication methods.
Standards-based object identification, sensor and connection
capability provide for the development of independent cooperative
services and applications characterized by a user-defined degree of
autonomy.
AIM Definition

12. WhatareAIDCTechnologies?
Automatic Identification and Data Capture (AIDC)
technologies provide the ability to automate data collection by
eliminating keyboard entry and paper-based approaches
 Bar Codes – Code 39, Code 128, etc.
 2D Symbologies – QR Code, DataMatrix, etc.
 RFID – passive (LF, HF, UHF/RAIN), active, NFC, etc.
 RTLS – real-time locating systems
 Machine Vision / Imaging
 Sensors
 Retail In-Store Solutions (e.g., POS terminals, EAS, PSS)
 and many more!

• The phrase was first mentioned in 1999 in papers published by the MIT
Auto-ID Center by Kevin Aston
• IoT refers to uniquely identifiable things and their virtually
representations
• RFID was part of the IoT vision from the start…the Auto-ID Center and
its project partner, EAN-UCC, considered best suited technology to
support and enable IoT as defined
• 17 years after its inception, IoT now seen as a modern, fresh concept
in our connected world

20.  AutoID technologies will not and should not exist in an IoT silo.
 The reality is a combination of technologies and devices including:
 The above can help turn a company with “fragmented agility” – where
agility may be found in separate business processes that may or may not
be linked – into a fully connected agile enterprise.
 A key challenge is to effectively manage (even remotely) the disparate
devices and systems and network them together to create a connected
agile enterprise.

Open source Blockchain Platforms
Eris
This software allows anyone present in the platform to create as well as run an application from
anywhere. This is dependable on the Blockchain or any smart contract technology that you use. A
government can use these smart contracts to do business with Eris automatically.
HydraChain
This software is an extension of the Ethereum platform which helps to create a Permissioned which is
attached to the Distributed Ledgers. The application in this software is private chain oriented and is
mainly set up for the financial industry.
MultiChain
This software helps the companies to design, implement as well as operate Distributed ledgers
instantly.
OpenChain
This is an open source distributed ledger technology which stands alone. It is mainly suited for
companies which are interested in managing their digital assets in a robust and flexible manner.
Anyone can spin up a new Openchain instance within seconds. The administrator of an Openchain
instance defines the rules of the ledger. End-users can exchange value on the ledger according to those
standards. Every transaction on the ledger is valid through a digital signature, in the same way like
Bitcoin.
