What makes up for an IoT Platform? Introducing the IoT value chain
■ Valuedrivers
■ Stages
■ Technologies
ACT & CONTROL
The mechanism to take decisions or actions on the
basis of the data. The software allows the user to
take better decisions and optimize yourperformance
based on a significant amount of data.
SENSE (Data mining)
Enable the sensors and actuators that make up
the IoT backbone for example, measure
movement, temperature, and ambient light level
CONNECT & COMMUNICATE
The network / protocol to gather data from the
sensors and the gateway to connect to the back
office. MyriaMesh automatically creates a mesh
network between all nodes – gathering datawas
never so easy andcheap.
AGGREGATE
Storing the data received from the IoT gatewayon
the backbone of a company’s IT infrastructure.
ANALYZE
Processing and analyzing the (large-scale)data

OBJECTIVE > 90% ENERGY SAVINGS
Hold this thought: Buildings represent about 30% of global energy use and therefore, smart buildings are a key
part of the sustainable energy future. Smart LED lighting alone can save 80% of energy for lighting. The energy efficiency
potential. from smart HVAC and window coverings is even bigger. Integrated performance management of these systems can
optimize energy savings by 90%.

» The market offers many single-purpose smart building
systems resulting in many different system layers
» Platform integration is too complex as long as IoT applications
operate on different system layers. Configuration is time-consuming
if devices each have their own IP address
» Non-secure IoT platforms with multiple system layers result in
costly,time-consuming installation, and high maintenance and
operational costs - IoT business cases are held captive
...demonstrating the need for non-hierarchical full-mesh networks
» Mesh networks scale effortlessly as they can run many different smart
building applications (multi-pupose) within one network
» Platform integration is easy. Devices and applications can be deployed
locally and directly in the network or via a cloud-based back office: simply
address and assign devices a job and group and they are operational (no
need for IP addresses)
» Operation of multiple systems within one network results in simple
installation, simple maintenance and therefore low operational costs
enabling scalable and viable IoT business cases
... but the promise of IoT in Smart Buildings is held captive byplatform
integration challenges

What should you look for?
The requirements for an BIoT platform (Building Internet of Things)
SECURITY Is the network secure by design?
2015 was “The Year of the Cyber Attack”. Cyber Security should be a concern
for any user or owner of connected devices. Adding network connectivity to
any “thing” can certainly provide great value but also brings with it potential
risks.
SCALABILITY
How scalable is it and is that scalable enough for the
business case of my green building? What determines
scalability?
Depending on your business case/ use case you would want to scale up simple
and easy - with as little reconfiguration, extra interfaces, gateways, routers as
possible.
RESILIENCE
How resilient is the network? Does it have self-organizing/
self healing qualities? Are there single point of failures?
(number of master/ slave relations in the network?)
The level of resilience impacts your down-time, maintenance costs, operational
costs and the end-user experience.
MOBILITY
How easy can moving assets and people be tracked and
traced? And with what accuracy?
Buildings are highly dynamic environments. Assets and people move
everywhere all the time. Can your IoT platform handle that (most can't -> IP
based)
ADDRESSABILITY
How many nodes (smart assets) can be addressed in 1
group? (e.g. Can lights can be a part of more than one
light scene)
The addressability impacts the scalability but also the simplicity of
commissioning and the flexible application of nodes to fit one or more
purposes.
INTEGRATED
COMMUNICATION
Can nodes also communicate with eachother? (Can sensors
and actuators exchange real time set-points and states? )
If nodes can both publish and subscribe to messages, the network becomes
highly agile (easy to commission/ flexible)
INDEPENDENCY
Does the network depend on the cloud/third party
providers? Or can it operate as an abstact, autonomous
network? How much control do you have over the
ownership of the data/ network?
The level of independency impacts the security and operational costs.
Depending on the infrastructure (back office in the cloud?) and the business
model of your solution provider you will have more or less control over your
data, the network and its costs.
RADIO FREQUENCY +
STRENGTH
On what frequency does the protocol operate? And at what
strength (mWatts)? What are the duty cycles?
It can get crowded at certain frequency. Can the protocol operate on other
frequencies, and what are the parameters that influence its reliability and its
distortion rate?
OVER-THE-AIR VERSION
UPDATES
How easy can devices be updated. In case of a system
update, would you need to update devices manualy? Or
does the network allow for OTA updates?
Depending on the amount of nodes and updates an OTA update feature can
have a huge impact on operational costs and down time. Imagine having to
manually update all devices?
What should you be asking? Why is this important?

Current situation
• >100 network protocols (wired &
wireless) for Building Automation
• Scalability + integration is realized
through hubs, modems, interfaces
and what not
• Result = COMPLEX + RIGID SYSTEM
- Buildings can’t adapt to changing
environment or purpose
- High operational costs

15. www.chess-wise.eu
IDEAL SITUATION
What if:
• There is ONE network that operates
as an integrated platform for all
building systems
• No hubs, gateways, routers,
interfaces, modems are necessary to
scale
• There is no (re) cabling resulting in
an extremely flexible installation

MyriaMesh Story
The MyriaMesh protocol has been inspired
by nature itself.
Nature shows us beautiful examples of self-
organized systems of cells, all contributing
equally to an organism as a whole. Organic
systems grow in size and behavior, simply by
adding a cell which automatically becomes a
supporting part of the system. This intelligent
design makes an organism ultra-scalable,
resilient and robust and it has no single
point of failure.
This became the starting point for the
development of MyriaMesh, a full mesh
network in which all nodes are equal and
each node contributes to an ever more
powerful network. Like birds in a flock or fish
in shoals.

18. www.chess-wise.eu
MyriaMesh Technology
• MyriaMesh is a wireless connectivity protocol, developed by Chess Wise, that enables
+10.000 Things (assets, devices) to self-organize the best way to communicate with each
other.
• …enables simple integration and deployment of devices and applications
• …is a mesh network: heterarchical topology and ultra-scalable to over 10.000 nodes in
one network
• ….is ultra-resilient: self-organzing + self- healing
• …is secure by design
• …is radio agnostic (supports short + long range)
• …has low operational cost
• …delivers over-the-air version updates

SECURITY
strong encryption and authentication (Aes CCM)
protects the network traffic from eavesdropping
and tampering. Each node has a unique id,
allowing it to obtain authenticated updates.Chess
wise uses Hardware security Modules (HsM), similar
to those used in the banking industry. This provides
optimal protection of all product keys, both public
and private, with a 128 bit AES encryption standard.
SCALABILITY
Contrary to iP based, hierarchical networks,
MyriaMesh is heterarchical and scalable to more
than 10,000 different devices, allowing one network
to control ‘everything’ for seamless platform
integration.
RESILIENCY
The network’s collective intelligence deploys and
restores (new) nodes automatically. in short:
MyriaMesh is self-organizing and self- healing and
has no single point of failure.
MOBILITY
Contrary to IP based connectivity platforms, MyriaMesh
allows for
mobility of naodes for example to support track & trace
applications.
?
ADDRESSABILITY
MyriaMesh can address 65k nodes in 1 group. All
nodes are equally able to reach peers, groups or all
nodes. One device can be a member of 8 groups
simultaneously.
PUBLISH &SUBSCRIBE
CONTROLLAYER
MyriaMesh’s universal network language enables
sensors and actuators to exchange real time set-
points and states (e.g turn light at 70% during
daylight-state) that allows for simple (re)configuration.
?
INDEPENDENCY
A MyiaMesh network can operate independently.
Its nodes have a collective intelligence that -
together- manage the network’s individual
applications. Connection to complementary cloud
(management) applications is simple but optional.
OVER-THE-AIRVERSION
UPDATES
MyriaMesh is radio agnostic. its protocol operates
on short range (smart building) as well as long
range frequencies (smart city/ outdoor).
