Internet of Things (IoT) is a lot more than just connected devices and seamless communication. The emerging IoT is having a sweeping effect on the way goods are produced, triggering another industrial revolution – Industry 4.0.
Gateways are essential components in IoT systems. Apart from providing network access to the leaf nodes, they can also run applications. This is important to reduce response time, network traffic, keep sensitive data within local boundaries and keep the system up even if the network is down. Home gateways, industrial field agents, on board units and roadside stations are examples for gateways.
Application development for such gateways is hard. Since gateways tie together hardware and network resources, developers need a broad set of skills to begin with. Development is further complicated since applications must work autonomously, managed remotely and handle the incoming streams of events. To solve these challenges, we have developed Reactive Blocks, a tool to create applications from building blocks. Blocks can encapsulate protocols, hardware access and application patterns. This leads to increased reuse, enables automatic code generation and automated checking of designs.
The document describes an IoT gateway solution based on the mbed microcontroller board. The gateway connects wireless sensor nodes using various communication protocols to cloud services. It has a modular, open source software design that allows new sensor nodes and cloud outputs to be added without code changes. The gateway hardware includes the mbed module, wireless modules, Ethernet, microSD card, and comes preassembled in an enclosure. It can currently transmit sensor data to Pachube and MQTT and future work involves expanding its capabilities.
Irrespective of the size of the company and the quantum of the work they do, cloud computing has become a business imperative as it provides cost benefits, agility, and reliable IT resources. Instead of bothering about the maintenance of their own private data centers storing information, companies can depend upon the scalability of cloud storage to build out storage as and when it is required thereby increasing their adaptability and reducing the total cost of ownership.

Automated and secure service activation at the network edge with zero touch p...ADVA
The document discusses zero touch provisioning (ZTP) which allows automated and secure activation of network edge devices without human intervention. It outlines the need for ZTP due to increasing complexity from technologies like NFV/SDN and growth of IoT/5G devices. ZTP provides benefits like reducing costs and speeding time to revenue by minimizing manual on-site configurations. However, automation also increases security risks so the document proposes a model using mutual authentication between devices and servers, as well as authorization through unique device IDs, to securely provision edge devices in a zero touch manner.
The Open Network Automation Platform (ONAP) is a leading Linux Foundation Networking open source project that provides fully automated orchestration and lifecycle management of NFV, SDN, analytics and edge computing services. While ONAP can be used for any network service, it is particularly beneficial for 5G and edge computing use cases. In this talk you will learn:
* What is ONAP
* What use cases does ONAP support
* What are the 5G/edge computing workload automation requirements
* How does ONAP support these requirements
* How can you get involved

A fresh approach to remote IoT Connectivity by Podsystempodsystem1
There are a huge number of IoT devices, often roaming across countries and continents, that are located outside urban areas.
This poses significant challenges to both the design and connectivity of the device, the biggest concern being that there is no room for error, as troubleshooting and maintenance of remote and roaming devices is complicated and costly.
As part of the Internet of Things North America conference in Chicago Illinois (April 13th – 14th 2016), Podsystem Inc. CEO Sam Colley presented ‘A Fresh Approach to Remote IoT Connectivity’ at 11:30 on April 14th.
Sam addressed the challenges faced by remote IoT applications developers and discussed ways of overcoming them.
His presentation is centered around an infographic which outlines the main issues involved in developing remote IoT applications and explains how to make the correct choices in terms of device design, connectivity and future proofing to prolong the lifespan of the application and avoid costly mistakes.

Advancing LTE architecture with NFV and SDNAlberto Diez
My presentation at LTE MENA 2015 in Dubai. It was the last one before some 5G discussions and after some good introductions to the NFV/SDN topics from the mobile operator perspective so I decided to do a remake of my NFV/SDN Orchestration presentation to address the maybe unwanted effects that NFV and SDN could have in the LTE network architecture. At the end I had to cut a couple of slides because I only had 20 minutes. Here is complete.
Session: 101 Use Cases for IoT: "A Picture is Worth a 1000 Words"
Presenter: Jay Moodley, IOT Solutions Specialist, Eastern Canada
Date: October 6, 2015
1) NFV allows IoT services and applications to be deployed quickly on virtualized network functions through a platform-as-a-service model, providing benefits like scalability, fast time-to-market, and an application ecosystem.
2) An example use case shows how a smart metering application can be deployed on a virtualized mobile network using NFV, with lifecycle management functions like instantiation, monitoring, scaling and termination.
3) The future of NFV and IoT is predicted to include 5G infrastructure for IoT, advanced big data collection and analytics enabling new business models and developer profiles.
5G will enable a wide range of applications with varying requirements in terms of data rates, latency, reliability, mobility, and density of connected devices. This variability means that 5G infrastructure and chipset features and pricing will also need to vary widely. EdgeQ proposes a software-defined, subscription-based model where customers pay for specific 5G features on an as-needed basis, allowing for flexible and cost-effective deployment of 5G technologies across different industries and use cases.
How the OSGi Residential Specifications can help to build an ecosystem for sm...mfrancis
OSGi Community Event 2015
In 2008 the OSGi Alliance created the Residential Expert Group with the mission to develop new specifications that would allow to build an application ecosystem for the smart home.</p>
In this presentation we want to provide an overview of the second release of OSGi Residential Specification that will be released later this year. It contains specifications for a Device Abstraction Layer, EnOcean Device Service Specification, Resource Monitoring, Serial Communication and more. Requirements for these specifications also come from other SDO's like the Home Gateway Initiative, product developments, and other projects.
With this second release of OSGi Residential Specification, the Residential Expert Group considers its mission fulfilled. For this reason we want to provide a recap of the achievements, the relevance to other standardization bodies as well as to the smart home market in general.
Evolution of high-speed interfaces in disaggregated open networksADVA
Many see full network disaggregation as the ultimate tool to increase flexibility and free operators from dependence on vendors. But partial disaggregation can also go a long way to reducing effort and cost.
At March 2018's Netnod meeting, Stephan Neidlinger showed how high-speed interfaces and higher-order modulation need to be supported by open optical line systems, and outlined how multi-layer and multi-vendor orchestration and management are key.
This document discusses how communication service providers can leverage edge cloud computing and virtualized transport (T-NFV) to offer new services and generate additional revenue streams. It notes that many emerging services are moving to or being created in the cloud but require communications connectivity. Edge cloud computing addresses this by situating services closer to end users with lower latency requirements. The document outlines how T-NFV can virtualize transport functions to enable fast, automated delivery of edge cloud services while differentiating the CSP. This virtualized transport is presented as key to enabling edge computing opportunities across sectors like IoT, smart cities, healthcare and more.
This document discusses how 5G networks can leverage microservices and cloud native architectures. It describes how network functions can be broken into microservices to enable capabilities like network slicing and edge cloud deployment. Kubernetes and containers are presented as ways to orchestrate and deploy these microservices. The OpenDaylight controller is discussed as a way to program networks built with microservices, and how it integrates with orchestrators like ONAP.

Leading the LTE IoT evolution to connect the massive Internet of ThingsQualcomm Research
Connecting the IoT—and virtually everything—requires wireless technologies that can scale up to high-performance IoT but also scale down to low complexity IoT application needs. LTE with its global footprint and scale will play a key role in connecting the IoT, and continues to evolve to also address the massive, wide-area, low-power, low-complexity IoT applications. In 3GPP Release 13, two complementary narrowband technologies – eMTC & NB-IoT – were introduced to reduce complexity, lower power consumption, deepen coverage, and increase user density. In 2017, commercial LTE IoT is starting to connect the massive IoT, and it will become an essential part of the 5G Platform, which initially focuses on enhanced mobile broadband. Its rich roadmap will further enhance efficiencies, bring new capabilities, and expand into unlicensed spectrum to meet tomorrow’s massive IoT needs.

Major drivers of open source for IoT are noted as velocity of innovation, interoperability, avoiding lock-in, and developer communities.

An IOT gateway Architecture using an MQTT bundle transport & LTP Convergence ...Alex Kritikos
In the last 30 years, messaging middleware software (MOM) has been offering store and forward services by decoupling senders (publishers) and receivers (subscribers) while offering various levels of QOS and transport protocol options. As hardware options became multi-core and with the aid of developments in Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), Event Driven Architecture (EDA) and cloud computing, a plethora of MOM products have emerged most of them based on the popular publish-subscribe paradigm. This has also led to standardisation efforts both at the API level (JMS) or the transport protocol level (MQTT, AMQP) and an ever increasing developer user base.
The majority of today’s IOT architectures involve a gateway node that bridges sensor/field networks with the internet. This is typically done either by using the consumer internet subscription or by leveraging new long range WAN technology such as SigFox and LoRa. In the majority of real world cases, the gateways use advanced software to buffer / support back pressure, an unavoidable result of the network diversity and intermittent connectivity of IOT and mobile nodes.
In an effort to find a killer application for DTN that is immediately useful and based on technology available today, we have researched an IOT gateway architecture that acts as a bi-directional convergence layer between MQTT events and RFC 5050 Bundle protocol packets. This allows existing MQTT based sensor applications to leverage DTN services without the need to make any code modifications. At the same time, the approach allows the definition of alternate DTN based routing paths between the gateway and the accompanying data ingestion cloud services, without being restricted from the typically tiny routing table size. Geographically dispersed such gateways can now also provide routing services for each other by further converging over Licklider Transmission Protocol (LTP) for all or a subset of the messaging namespace payloads. Finally the cost of data ingestion from occasionally connected field networks is greatly reduced due to the simplicity of developing applications for them.

OSGi -Simplifying the IoT Gateway - Walt Bowersmfrancis
OSGi Community Event 2015
Why do IoT gateways have to be so difficult? Currently the fragmentation, complexity, and potential lock-in of the gateway make picking an IoT gateway solution appear difficult. Add to that developer integration challenges and the gateway picture seems overly complex. Enter OSGi to simplify the development and deployment of the IoT Gateway.</p>
Built on OSGi, Eclipse Kura provides an open platform for developing and deploying IoT gateways. Combining live demonstrations on the Raspberry Pi and Eurotech Reliagate with real world Eurotech use cases, this talk will provide an overview of Kura demonstrating how it leverages OSGi to simplify IoT gateway solutions.
An Introduction to Eclipse Kura - Eclipse Day Florence 2014Eurotech
Deploying and configuring one device to act as a node in the Internet of Things is relatively easy. Doing the same for hundreds or thousands of devices is not so easy though. This is where the new Eclipse project Kura comes in.
Kura is a Java/OSGi-based container for M2M applications running in service gateways.
Kura was contributed to Eclipse by Eurotech who developed the original technology to run on everything from general purpose devices, rugged mobile computers, wearable devices, service gateways and vehicle consoles, all the way down to the Raspberry Pi.
Raspberry PI has been around for over 4 years. In the past year it matured significantly and became a valid tool for building professional IoT gateways and Fast! In this talk I will review its abilities - From RF to OS to code to cloud connectivity, and create - on stage - an A to Z IoT gateway.

Similar to IoT based Industrial Gateway (IoT-SDK) built around Sitara™ AM437x processors PoM (20)
This paper proposes an algorithm to determine the top and bottom field order in interlaced video when that information is not provided by the video decoder. Knowing the field order is important for de-interlacing algorithms to reconstruct frames with minimal artifacts. The algorithm works by interpolating lines in assumed top fields and comparing pixel values to bottom lines, calculating confidence values for each field assumption. It then determines if the field order is correct or swapped based on the confidence values. The algorithm needs to run periodically to re-check the field order if the video input is disconnected and reconnected.

Power Spikes Isolation to avoid corruption within sensitive ICs SolutionsMistral Solutions
The document describes a case study of resolving a power spike issue in a system. The power spikes were occurring during insertion of the power supply and corrupting an ASIC chip designed for tamper detection. Various attempts were made to filter the spike such as using capacitors, chokes, and diodes, but these did not work due to the high frequency of the spike. Finally, the issue was resolved by completely isolating the power and ground of the ASIC section using DC-DC isolation, as well as isolating interface signals, which prevented the spike from reaching the ASIC.
In this technical article, we present a Novel algorithm for the lossy compression method, where the performance and storage has been proscribed with hardware descriptive language (HDL).

IoT based Industrial Gateway (IoT-SDK) built around Sitara™ AM437x processors PoM
1. IoT based Industrial Gateway (IoT-SDK) built around Sitara™
AM437x processors PoM
Today, the Internet of Things (IoT) is a lot more than just connected devices and seamless
communication. The emerging IoT is having a sweeping effect on the way goods are
produced, triggering another industrial revolution – Industry 4.0.
Industry 4.0, or the fourth Industrial revolution, is the current trend of automation and data
exchange in manufacturing industries. It is based on cyber-physical systems (CPS),
networking machines, and intelligent, smart and highly flexible software. In the context of
an industrial environment, the IoT gains more relevance when there is a requirement of
analysing a large amount of data collected over a prolonged period of time.
Putting this into practice in the industrial context, the IoT involves mostly data acquisition,
processing and associated control systems. Devices or assets connect to the cloud or local
information technology (IT) infrastructure to collect and/or transmit data. This data is then
processed and analyzed to provide insight about the control system. The control system acts
directly on the measurements made in real-time and typically does not include storage. The
IoT and cloud infrastructure provides the mechanism to conserve all data collected over a
large duration of time. The data thus collected on the cloud can be used for managing the
control system by statistically analysing the data collected over a long period of time.
While the typical process controller operates on real-time data that handles short term
corrective actions, the IoT and cloud based technologies enables long-term observations
and improvements.
Here we illustrate the possible use of the IoT technologies in an industrial environment in
order to build the cyber-physical systems needed in Industry 4.0.
Let us take a simple control system / home automation controller as an example for
illustration.
The system includes the following components.
Controller board connected to sensors and actuators
These could be based on a microcontroller (MCU) interfaced to sensors or actuators
directly (or via an industrial bus). Or they could also be based on low end
microprocessor (MPU) running RTOS handling more functions. While the basic
functionality would be to sense the parameters or take measurements from the
sensors and then control the actuators/outputs, these systems can be extended to
push the desired parameters to the cloud server.
Cloud servers
2. The cloud provides various functions including distributed storage with redundancy,
high-availability and centralized device management. The cloud may also provide the
distributed computing infrastructure to carry out the desired business logic or data
analytics logic involving large or big data.
Clients providing the user interface to the system
The client is the front-end providing human interface for configuration and retrieving
the information and status. The clients could be applications realized on different
platforms including PC, thin-clients; tablets, smart phones etc.
Solution illustration
Let us look at implementation of a simple IoT enabled home/office automation controller
using the IoT-SDK which will provide the middleware that interfaces the industrial
bus/protocol to the Cloud.
The system is realized using:
Sitara™ AM437x processor based Industrial gateway as controller board
Cloud based storage (using AWS or open-source IoT server KAA)
Android Smartphone application as client
The IoT-SDK provides software components for both the gateway/device as well as the
client. The cloud server interface in both the device as well as the client is well abstracted
enabling seamless migration from one cloud platform to the other. The IoT-SDK supports
Amazon Web Services (AWS) (https://aws.amazon.com/)cloud integration or open-source
cloud server KAA implementation (http://www.kaaproject.org/overview).
Industrial Gateway
Industrial gateway is the device that bridges the slow speed industrial serial buses &
physical input/output with the TCP/IP realm. It is designed based on the AM437x processor
system-on-chip (SoC) running Linux® and having the following sensor interconnect options:
RTD:
o Supporting 2-Wire, 3-Wire, 4-Wire connections for a temperature range of -
200°C to +850°C
o Supports platinum (Pt100, Pt200, P500, Pt1000), nickel (Ni100, Ni120, N200),
copper, balco, general PTC's & NTC's
Thermocouple:
o Supported temperature range : -200°C to +1260°C
o Supported types J, K, E, T & N
Analog input:
o Supports voltage mode (0 to 10V) and current mode (0 to 20mA; 4 -20mA)
3. Analog output:
o Supports voltage mode (-10V to 10V) and current mode (0 to 20mA, 4 to
20mA)
Multiple relay control:
o Voltage : 230V AC
o Current : 5A
Modbus RTU
OBD interface
KNX
EtherCAT®
PROFIBUS
The IoT-SDK will transform the system into an IoT enabled industrial gateway having the
following capabilities:
Monitoring the parameters/measurements of sensors directly connected via physical
IO, MODBUS RTU, EtherCAT, KNX etc.
Continuous monitoring of desired parameters, evaluate logical condition and drive
actuators for desired output action.
Programmed timer based output control.
Logging of parameters (and events) to remote cloud storage or local storage for
desired periodicity and averaging duration.
Remotely controlling the actuators as desired and thereby enabling the cloud servers
(or client) to drive desired output action based on business data analytics.
Cloud Infrastructure
The Cloud infrastructure is built using commercially available Amazon Web Services (AWS) or it can
be hosted on custom IoT open source servers like KAA.
AWS or KAA cloud server shall be configured to manage (enable/disable) the
Industrial IoT gateway devices and it supports following features:
o Rules engine to manage the data sent from IoT gateways and take user defined
actions
o Store the IoT gateway data in the NoSQL persistent store required for Data analytics
o Provide notifications to the mobile client applications
Android Client
Client application provides the user interface to the IoT devices and its big data stored in the
cloud server. The client application is developed using the IoT-SDK that provides APIs to
abstract lower layers completely. All the business logic for interfacing with the cloud servers
and interfacing with the IoT device (gateway) is abstracted with simple APIs. The APIs are
available for:
4. Configuring the monitoring function.
Configuring the logging function.
Configuring the thresholds for event generation and output controls etc.
Querying the information from device as well as cloud storage.
Receiving notification for events triggered from the cloud server.
Analyze and generate useful reports from the Big data stored in the cloud server.
Control the actions on the devices through the cloud server.
The IoT is built on a confluence of technologies, including new and old hardware platforms,
big data, cloud computing and machine-to-machine (M2M) computing with APIs bringing all
of these parts together.
The AM437x processor SoC comes enhanced with 3D graphics acceleration for rich graphical
user interfaces, as well as a coprocessor (the PRU-ICSS) for deterministic, real-time
processing including industrial communication protocols, such as EtherCAT, PROFIBUS,
EnDat, and others. This combined with feature-rich IoT SDKs available today, enables
developers to rapidly build secure, enterprise-grade intelligent gateways catering to a wide
range of applications beyond industrial and home automation like smart cities, connected
cars, energy monitoring, fleet management, and health and wellness.
