Agenda
● What is IoT ?
● IoTivity framework for connected devices
● Example
● Deployed on Arduino and Tizen Mobile Wearable devices
● More
● Q&A

Internet of Things is: A complex equation
● Where all parameters are correlated :
– Connectivity: not only Internet, probably IP, but not only
● Personal (<1m), Local (<10m - 10km), Metropolitan (<10km), Wide Area
(<1000Km)
– Security matters ! (during all expected life span)
● Several surfaces of attacks: service, monitoring, upgrade
– Cost of materials and cost of usage:
● Computing capability (CPU or MCU?), consumption, if 24x7
● Development, maintenance: FLOSS or Closed source ?

● Many Silos / Many implementations :
– One app per device (better than many remote controls)
– Dependence on centralized models (hub/cloud)
● Many concerns or issues:
– Security/Privacy concerns?
– Long term support and maintenance?
– Do we want critical devices exposed to the Internet ?
● Few Interoperability/Interconnection of today's things.
IoT: Internet of Today or Internet of Troubles ?

IoT: Internet of Tomorrow? Internet of Trust?
● “I” like Interoperability
– <blink>Local connectivity between devices</blink>
– Interconnect any protocols or on line services
● “O” like Openness
– Open standards, protocol, implementations
● “T” like Trustworthy
– Security is sine qua non condition for IoT
– Today, gateway is a reasonable answer

“Talk is cheap.
Show me the code.”
~ Linus Torvalds

“I” like framework
● Seamless device to device connectivity for IoT
– Core: Discovery, Secure Transmission, Data/Device
– Plus profile services : SmartHome, Automotive, Health...
● C/C++ library (Apache 2.0)
– RESTfull design : CoAP and CBOR
● Backed by Open Connectivity Foundation
– Establishes standard, certifies of products, propose models
– With industry support (Samsung, Intel, Cisco, GE, +190)

OCF is standard / IoTivity is implementation
● Based on existing standards or solutions
– Interacts with other standards: uPnP, AllSeen
● Current features:
– Discovery (IETF RFC7252 / IP Multicast)
– Communication (RESTfull API on CoAP) w/ Security (DTLS)
– Transports (IP, WiFi, BT, BLE, Zigbee...)
– Data/Device management, web services, cloud, plugins...
● Today I explain only discovery and notification mechanism

“The secret of getting ahead
is getting started.”
~ Mark Twain

Challenge yourself !
● No limit: sensors, robotics, from cat feeder to autonomous vehicles
● Start with simplest example:
– Led blinking is the “hello word” for embedded developer
● Using GPIO
– Then we can replace LED by a relay
● And make is visible by several connected clients
– And notify them on each change
● Today mission: multi controlled binary switch (Flip/Flop)
● Shared resource is boolean (on/off) as READ and WRITE mode

Typical flow
● Resource is identified by an URI and composed of properties
– To be Created, Read, Updated, Deleted, + Notified (CRUD+N)
IoTivity Server IoTivity Client(s)
Network
Registration of resource
Handling new requests Set/Get/ing properties values
Initialization as server Initialization as client
Handling new clients Discovery of resource
( POST/PUT GET )
(CoAP Multicast)

Let's develop a client/server
● You can start an Arduino project
– IoTivity CSDK code is cross platform
– Suggestion: Try to make a portable project too
● Or on a friendly GNU/Linux environment:
– Debian/Ubuntu, Tizen, Yocto (meta-oic), OpenWRT
– Try to Isolate platform code (syscalls, POSIX, GPIO)
– Use your favorites tools, IDE, debug, log, trace, QA

Get your hands on IoTivity!
● Get and build libraries: https://wiki.iotivity.org/build
– Download sources and dependencies
●
Build current version 1.1.1 using scons
– Or if OS shipping IoTivity
● Tizen, Yocto based Automotive Grade Linux GENIVI ...
● Use it a regular library (CPPFLAGS & LDFLAGS)
● Look at tree: https://wiki.iotivity.org/sources
– Samples apps: resource/examples
– C SDK: resource/csdk or C++ SDK: resource/resource/src

IoTivity CSDK flow : Create Resource
OCInit(... OC_SERVER);
OCCreateResource( …, onOCEntity);
{ OCProcess(); }
OCInit(... OC_CLIENT);
IP NetworkIP Network
● Initialization is trivial
● Then server create a new resource
– and registers a callback to serve client
– and waits for new client(s) requests

IoTivity CSDK flow: Discovery of resource
OCInit(NULL, 0, OC_SERVER);
{ OCProcess(); }
OCInit(NULL, 0, OC_CLIENT);
OCDoResource(...,OC_REST_DISCOVER, ...)
onDiscover(... OCClientResponse ...)
● Client attempts to discover server's resources
– and finds registered ones

IoTivity CSDK flow: GET Request
OCInit(..., OC_SERVER);
{ OCProcess(); }
onOCEntity(entityHandlerRequest) {
switch entityHandlerRequest->method
{
case 'GET' : // READ current value
...
OCDoResponse(&response);
}}
OCInit(..., OC_CLIENT);
OCDoResource(...OC_REST_GET …)
onGet(... OCClientResponse ...)
● Client is asking
– for resource's value
● Server is responding

OCDoResource(...OC_REST_PUT …)
onPut(... OCClientResponse ...)
IoTivity CSDK flow: PUT request
{ OCProcess(); }
{
case 'POST: // Create value
case 'PUT' : // Update new resource
// handling the change
...
}}
● Client sets resource's value
● Server is handling it
– and responding

OCDoResource(...OC_REST_PUT …)
onPut(... OCClientResponse ...)
IoTivity CSDK flow: Notification/Observation
{ OCProcess(); }
{
case 'POST: // Create value
case 'PUT' : // Update new resource
OCNotifyAllObservers();
...
}}
onObserve(... OCClientResponse ...)
● All subscribed clients
– are notified of the change

“I'm not crazy. My reality
is just different from yours.”
~ Lewis Carroll

Microcontrollers (MCU)
● A microcontroller is a System on Chip (SoC)
– Digital I/O, A/D & D/A Conversion, Serial Interface, Timers
– Flash Memory, Static RAM
● Arduino : OSHW Electronic prototyping platform
– Huge community, OOP libraries, education purposes
– Supports daughter boards called shields, ie: Ethernet, WiFi, etc
● Baremetal development
– main loop program have direct access to hardware
● Note that many operating system for MCU are existing

IoTivity is supporting Arduino atmega256
● IoTivity CSDK use atmega256 as reference target
– Based on Atmel ATmega2560 MCU (8KiB RAM, 256KiB of Flash, 16Mhz)
● Class 2 Constrained device (RFC7228 ~ 50 KiB data ~ 250 KiB code)
– Build it using scons tool:
scons resource
TARGET_OS=arduino TARGET_ARCH=avr BOARD=mega SHIELD=ETH
– It will download toolchain, and build using avr-gcc & avr-g++
– And produce a set of static libs (~100KiB) to be linked with any program:
● libcoap.a, liboctbstack.a, libconnectivity_abstraction,a ...

Port server code to Arduino API
● Adapt/rewrite platform code: sleep(sec) vs delay(ms)
– Initialize Ethernet, GPIO (pinMode, digitalWrite)
● Update build scripts (tip: use Arduino-Makefile/Arduino.mk)
– Note Arduino API are using C++ POO while ours in plain C
– Trick: symlink or echo “#include “$file.c” “ > “$file.c.tmp.cpp”
– LOCAL_CPP_SRCS += src/server.c.tmp.cpp
● Deploy server using Arduino's avrdure: (117056 bytes of flash)
● Use client(s) on GNU/Linux or port code for other devices

Hardware integration : DIY or Modules?
● High voltage relay (0-220V)
– Signal = Base of NPN Transistor
● Simples modules, to wire on headers
– Ie: Single channel Relay (HXJ-36) : 0V, +5V, GPIO

Interaction with products
● Tizen is an Operating System based on FLOSS
● Shipped into consumer electronics products
● Tizen IoTivity
– Tizen:3 contains as platform package (.rpm)
– Tizen:2 can ship shared lib into native app (.tpk)
● For Samsung Z{1,2,3} (Tizen:2.4:Mobile)
● Samsung GearS2 (Tizen:2.3.1:Wearable)

Build Tizen clients 1/2: build library
● Setup and configure GBS for :
– Tizen:2.4:Mobile for Z1
– Tizen:2.3.1:Wearable for Gear S2
– Tizen:3.0 for x86 or ARM
● Build dependencies 1st : (scons, boost...)
– git clone $URL -b ${branch} # (ie: tizen, tizen_2.4)
– gbs build -p ${profile} # (ie: tizen_mobile-armv7l)
● In the end : iotivity-*.rpm

Build Tizen clients 2/2: create App
● Using Tizen SDK, create native tizen project
– Unpack lib and headers from: iotivity-*.rpm iotivity-devel*.rpm
– Update build and link flags (see wiki)
– cp usr/lib/*.so lib and make deploy package (.tpk)
● Adapt EFL gui and integrate IoTivity
– Create UI using elementary widgets toolkit
– Use previous CSDK client (or write it again using C++)
● Start IoTivity client in a separate thread
– Update UI on IoTivity events (main loop)

IoTivity hardware to hack on:
● Single Board Computers with daughters boards
– ARTIK 5,10,7 are also compatible with Arduino Shields
– Raspberry Pi + hats (RabbitMax Flex, CoPiino)
– Minnowboard + lures (Calamari, Tadpole), Edison
● Other micro controllers:
– ESP8266, Arduino 101, Galileo
● Yours? Tell us: https://wiki.iotivity.org/hardware
● IoTivity is also supported outside GNU/Linux or Tizen

You can even create your own Tizen device
● Since Tizen 3, Tizen:Common was introduced
● A profile to create new profiles on:
– 90% Tizen:IVI (cars) is Tizen Common
– IoTivity is part of Tizen:Common
● Like “your Tizen gateway” profile
– Start by installing OS for supported devices (ARM or Intel)
● Or port to new architecture hardware using GBS or Yocto

advanced technology
is indistinguishable
from magic.”
