5G: a revolution or an evolution for IoT by Merouane DEBBAH, HuaweiEuroIoTa
Targeted for 2020, 5G will take the eco-system to a whole new level. New applications, new business models and even new industries will spring up around 5G. With 5G, we can expect our high speed connections to extend into our vehicles, into our things, with fewer interruptions and new ways of working or remote working starting to take off. If we look at some of the goals of 5G versus where we are today, we can see the gap that has to be bridged over the next few years. The goal of 1ms latency is nearly 50x better than current LTE systems. In order to go from 100Mbps per user to 10Gbps, we need 100x the throughput per connection. The current 10,000 connections per square kilometer needs to increase to 1Million connections which is a 100x increase in density. Reliable communications today with LTE top can sustain 350km/h and we expect to bring that up by 1.5x to 500km/h . Finally the current core networks and backhaul/front-haul are inflexible with wasted pools of bandwidth. The introduction of SDN/NFV will allow much better ability to chop up and virtualize the network resources for lower operational costs and capital costs and much greater flexibility. In this talk, we will briefly describe the candidate 5G technologies and provide a look at the actual worldwide standardization process.

Microwave backhaul plays an important role in providing a good user experience and overall network performance. The backhaul capacity needed per base station differs substantially, depending on target data rates and population density.
Microwave backhaul technology is able to handle 100 percent of all radio access sites’ capacity needs. This is true for today as well as in 2020, when it will evolve to support multi-gigabit capacities in traditional frequency bands and beyond 10 gigabits in the millimeter wave.

Whitepaper - How to build a mutil-technology scalable IoT Connectivity Platform?Actility
In this paper, we investigate the challenges facing service providers and enterprises for deploying and monetizing LPWAN solution.
We show in this paper that the traditional M2M approach might not be cost-effective for the needs of LPWAN IoT deployments due to dramatically lower ARPU requirements of IoT compared to traditional M2M. We also examine both cellular IoT (NB-IoT or Cat-NB1, Cat-M1, Cat-1) and LoRaWAN, with the objective to demonstrate the complementary aspects of the two technologies. We show how operators extend existing M2M use cases and swap 2G using cellular IoT, and in addition tap into the new unlicensed IoT market space using LoRaWAN. Interestingly, LoRaWAN is a natural over-the-top play for cellular IoT operators, as cellular IoT is an ideal backhaul technology for unlicensed LPWAN concentrators.
Properly matching a connectivity solution to a use case is a complex multidimensional problem requiring analysis of several factors including battery lifetime, coverage, throughput, latency, total cost of ownership (TCO), amongst other factors. We discuss these factors and attempt to build a technology selection chart, and then build a business case for multi-technology IoT platform that leverages both LoRaWAN and Cellular IoT to serve the needs of all IoT use cases. We also provide insights on the service provider strategy for LPWAN deployment with examples from Tier-1 MNOs such as SK Telecom and Orange.
Finally, we conclude the paper with overview of ThingPark Wireless as a multi-technology platform that addresses the challenges for both LoRaWAN and Cellular IoT deployments.

Beyond TCP: The evolution of Internet transport protocolsOlivier Bonaventure
The transport layer is one of the key layers of the Internet protocol stack. It enrichs the network layer service to make it suitable for applications. Almost 40 years after its initial design, TCP remains the most widely used transport protocol. In the early 2000s, SCTP was proposed as an alternative to TCP. Despite a clean and extensible design and many useful features, it did not reach wide deployment. This failure is mainly caused by middleboxes. We'll describe their operation and explain why Multipath TCP, which is a backward compatible evolution to TCP, has better chances of being deployed. We'll explain the main principles behind Multipath TCP and the lessons that can be drawn from its design. We'll then analyse why Internet giants like Google and Microsoft now consider application-layer solutions like QUIC to replace standard protocols like TCP.
Connected Service: Leveraging M2M and IoT Data to Create Proactive 1:1 Custom...Capgemini
Most companies with M2M and IoT systems analyze the data only periodically to schedule predictive maintenance. At Capgemini, we use the data generated by connected devices in real-time to create a one-to-one post-purchase dialog with the business customer or consumer.
By analyzing the condition, performance and also use of connected products like cars and machines, our ConnectedService solution can trigger real-time customer interactions in sales, customer care, and service.
By using data in this manner, we enable a new set of proactive business cases like identifying new sales opportunities, decreasing emissions, improving safety, optimizing resources, and enhancing productivity.

Customer Retention: Why Your Dog Would Make More Money Than YouChris Hexton
Customer Retention is extremely important for any online business, though is often overlook. Learn how to increase your customer retention rate (and reduce churn) with these tips and tricks.
This presentation highlights the progress made in SDN/NFV in the past year. In terms of technology we have started to talk about use cases that require much deeper integration with existing network infrastructure. New revenues are increasingly becoming the dominant business rationale for adopting SDN and NFV – a shift from a CAPEX/OPEX driven focus last year. More importantly, we are evaluating the operational impacts of the migration and this is widely expected to be the long tail of this network evolution journey.

Which means that I overlook the Demand phase of our engagements with Axiros customers WW.
As such, I want to mention a specific aspect which we believe is getting the right attention in terms of ability to monetize the technology.
Let’s start from the title: we are all familiar with CEM. So what’s CxM and why one more acronym ?
In the business domain of the Internet of Things we need to couple two important aspects: the Customer Experience - where the tricky part is the definition of who is the Customer and I am going to explain it in the next few slides - and the Context - which is part of the experience itself, when we think that the “Thing” connected lives in a specific environment - which is finally what we want to control.

They are all IP cameras, they will all carry live or still frame video but the context defines which application and management function we want to activate.
The context defines the additional equipment these “Things” need to connect to, the SLA, the connectivity requirements and finally the complete control plane that needs to be activated on these devices

Make examples:
- Communication domain: Mobile, Wireless BB over Fiber, Mesh Radio, etc.
- A functional domain: Metering, Sensing, Alarming, Access&Authorization
- Business need: AMI/AMR, Traffic/Load Shaping, Demand/Response, etc.
- Segment in the value chain: packaging, warehouse, transport and logistic, delivery, installation, etc.

emphasize the concept of the second phase where the context arise from the combination of behavior of two - or more - devices

just remind the key concepts
Here the concept we need to highlight is that a Customer is a pretty different concept than the usual one in the Telco industry.
It might be a set of APIs that connect to external applications , plus the direct billed user of a service , plus some other notification APIs that transfer the information about the usage of a service.
At the end all of these Customer concepts - including the End User - consume APIs.
A user browser is today with modern web technologies accessing APIs in the same way it accesses content on the web thus making the user accessing an application really identical to an application to application interface.

going through the concepts to explain the different type of Customers.
Some of them are not even real users, but applications to which we need to connect.
Make the recent example of the use of WebHook technologies to link to workflows that use other web services - like Google Docs - to create compelling events for the application that subscribes to it.
The key concepts have been exposed
So how do we related them
This grphical representation is how we see it
Users = Customers
Network elements + Devices = Context
All of them accessible through a consistent set of APIs
( click to start for every single item )
This time the key concept we have to transfer is the ability to extend from
pure Data Collection to
the Management of Device States to
the Management of Contexts ( typically aggregation of states across different devices ) to
the APIs that expose management functionality over the Contexts.
And - since the use of those APIs can be very different - the API layer needs to be extensible.
So - after consolidating the two key concepts of:
Being able to build Context(s) out of the device data, potentially combining them
Being able to axpose a polymorphic set of APIs for the same service, depending from the type/profile of users willing to connect to it
The next big this is to qualify some specific needs:
Communication Network Aware: because - especially in Industrial IoT , but not only - service can happen of every kind of communication network, fixed or mobile. The traditional concept of having a low bandwidth mobile network only for control - which was valid in M2M , does not hold any longer
Management I/F Neutral, because when it comes to the ability to build a Context, you might need to interface devices that do not have homogeneous management interface
Multi-Layer / Multi-Tenancy: because the need to manage different User Profiles / Use Cases brings with it the ability to create dynamic ( eventually hierarchical ) Device groups.
Web Services extendable: because our Context(s) and Customer(s) are by nature dynamic concepts and require the ability to manage consistently changes to the API layer. Not just being able to create new APIs but also the ability to expose different API behavior based on the type of User authenticating to the API Engine
User Profile / Use Case agnostic: Here the concept is that no internal behavior of the API engine is designed around any specific type of user. It is not only for a management user, for a service user or for an end user. It’s for all of them
( every topic animates with a click )
This is a very broad topic.
Play the topics one by one:
scalability: in terms of devices, but also transactions and distribution of server infrastructure
data models: to be neutral ranging from tr style, to snap style to CLI style to netflow
same as above but with even more focus on the ability to integrate new transports
this is the wizard style, not only to create new interfaces to the external world, but also to connect them to the internal data models and the business logic

And finally a walk through the four key elements and map them back on how we solve the challenges
