2. Introduction
- The iBrussels Wireless Campus
- Application strategy: towards a
organically growing “Virtual Service
Delivery Platform”
- The example of Oyble
- Demo
3. iBrussels: wireless campus
• mission:
a permanent test- and demozone
active partnership with industry
and government
platform for scientific research and
education
• Offer living lab environment with
+10000 users
• design, develop & evaluate
reference applications in a real life
context
• focus on mobile, web 2.0, internet
of things
4. Urbizone as a catalyst
• Free public wifi network on university campus
• Supports broadband-intensive services
• 1 km2 outdoor + strategic indoor coverage
• Direct connection to fiber
backbone
• Active user community
• Part of larger Brussels wifi
infrastructure (largest in
Belgium)
5. Focus of experiments
• Different application domains
– Sport & leisure
– Education / R&D
– Culture
– Work/productivity
– Social networks
6. 3 examples
AirGraffiti Mind the Steps Wayfinding 2.0
Context-aware Motivational Sensor-based
urban mobile community navigation for
service activity monitor public spaces
7. These applications are not silos
• Developed pragmatically
• Exist as independent
applications and tools
within campus portfolio
• At the same time pieces
of a larger puzzle
• Versatile components
that can be used by
other applications
8. Virtual Service Delivery Platform
• Strategically add to a
“Virtual Service Delivery
Platform”
• And by opening up your
technical infrastructure:
users can become co-
creators
9. Oyble: part of iBrussels demozone
• Developed out of real
campus needs
• We have a teacher-student
e-learning platform:
Pointcarré (Dokeos-based)
• Problem of last-minute
notification, re-scheduling
classrooms
• Could not depend on mobile
internet alone, must have a
wider reach
10. Oyble: a piece of the puzzle
• Initial idea of an sms alerting
application…
• … soon became that of a
loosely coupled service that
allows members of any group
to connect in heterogeneous
circumstances
• Much more use cases
possible
11. Oyble: a group-communication hub
sms
• Users can send/receive
messages or interact with web
the service using SMS, e- sms
mail, the web or an API
email Custom
• A widget that can easily be app
pasted into existing User talking, other users listening
websites is available
• May be used as broadcast
or as many-to-many oyble
communication tool
Or group conversation
12. Oyble
• Swiss army knife: API to
get messages in + make
it possible to speak to
other APIs from within
Oyble
• Can be used as
application extension,
part of VSDP-puzzle
• Not limited to the campus
demozone
13. Other use cases / the future
• Letting users and groups (e.g. student
bodies, research departments) use it on the
iBrussels campus
• Opening up to other interested parties
• Exploring other use cases:small-to-medium
sized communities (e.g. ‘soccer parents);
bridging communities and technology (e.g.
grandparents-grandchildren, digital divide
project, …)
