The document discusses enabling demand side flexibility (DSF) through standardization and interoperability. It provides background on SAREF, an ontology for smart appliances, and its extension SAREF4ENER. A current study aims to identify necessary alignments between SAREF4ENER and other energy and smart grid standards to achieve interoperability for DSF. The study will demonstrate an integrated DSF infrastructure at a conference in October based on integrating SAREF with representative standards. The goal is a final report identifying gaps and recommending alignments to standard development organizations.
For companies, data is only worthwhile if it can be processed. At the same time, a new, comprehensive and generally accepted handling practice has to be anchored in the way data is utilized.
Industrial Data Space is a virtual data space which supports the secure exchange and simple linking of data in business ecosystems on the basis of standards and by using collaborative governance models.
Data is only exchanged if it is requested from trustworthy certified partners. The data owner – i.e. the company – determines who is allowed to use the data in what way. As a result, the partners of one supply chain have joint access to certain data by mutual consent so that they can start something new, develop new business models, design their own processes more efficiently or initiate additional added value processes elsewhere, either alone or together.

SEMANCO - Integrating multiple data sources, domains and tools in urban ener...Álvaro Sicilia
Semantic-based interoperability based on ontologies provide an alternative to centralized stand-ard data models. They help to integrate heterogeneous data produced by loose coupled information systems and to interlink these data with different tools in ad hoc situations. In the SEMANCO project (www.semanco-project.eu) we have used semantic technologies to create energy models of urban areas encompassing a variety of data sources and do-mains (building, geospatial, energy, climate, socioeconomic). The semantically modelled data has been made accessible to a set of simulation and analysis tools. The interoperability among the data sources and between these and the tools that interact with them is assured by a Semantic Energy Information Framework (SEIF) developed in the project. The access to the data and tools takes place in the SEMANCO integrated platform. In this paper we describe the work carried out to integrate an existing simulation software –URSOS– with the semantic data model. The functionalities of the tool and the integrated platform have been demonstrated in an application case carried out in the city of Manresa, in Spain

Today’s major environmental & public
issue is air pollution. According to the report
of World Health Organization (WHO), air
pollution is significant risk factor for multiple
health conditions including skin & eye
infection, irritation of nose, throat & eyes. It
also causes serious conditions like heart

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Session 1.3 energy, smart homes & smart grids: towards interoperability for demand side flexibility using saref and saref4 ener
1. ENERGY, SMART HOMES & SMART GRIDS:
TOWARDS INTEROPERABILITY FOR
DEMAND SIDE FLEXIBILITY USING
SAREF AND SAREF4ENER
Laura Daniele, TNO
SEMANTiCS 2017, Amsterdam
3. BACKGROUND (1/2)
Societal challenge: achieve higher energy efficiency
>40% total energy consumption in Europe comes from residential houses and therefore home
appliances
Home appliances are energy using and producing products (EupPs) designed to
accomplish household functions, like cleaning or cooking
e.g., refrigerators, stoves, washing machines (White goods), toasters, coffee makers, air
conditioners, light bulbs (Brown goods), PCs, TVs, mobile phones, cameras (Shiny goods)
4. BACKGROUND (2/2)
More and more home appliances nowadays are smart appliances
Highly intelligent and networked devices
Complete energy consuming, producing and managing systems
The goal becomes then to achieve higher energy efficiency not only at the level of
individual devices, but especially at system level
5. MOTIVATION
Need for open and standardised interfaces among networked devices (often from
different vendors) constituting these systems
Many relevant standards already exist, but not a common architecture
Need to abstract from specific details of individual standards and create an abstraction
layer based on a commonly agreed semantics
Need for high level model- a reference ontology- that defines recurring concepts in the
smart appliances domain without having to know specifics of the various standards
6. THE SMART APPLIANCES STUDY
In order to create the missing abstraction layer based on a commonly agreed
semantics, in 2013 the European Commission launched a standardization initiative
(SMART 2013/0077) in collaboration with ETSI TC SmartM2M to create a reference
ontology for the smart appliances domain (SAREF) as “interoperability language”
SAREF study conducted by TNO from January 2014 to March 2015
www.sites.google.com/site/smartappliancesproject
7. SAREF BUILT FROM AN EXTENSIVE ANALYSIS OF EXISTING
STANDARDS AND PROTOCOLS
10. SAREF EVOLUTION
The outcome of the Smart Appliances study resulted in the publication of the SAREF
standard by ETSI in November 2015
In 2016, ETSI requested a Specialist Task Force (SFT 513) on the management of
SAREF and creation of extensions in specific domains
In January 2017, the first 3 extensions were published: SAREF for Energy, SAREF for
Environment and SAREF for Buildings
https://ec.europa.eu/digital-single-market/en/news/new-version-machine-2-machine-
standard-smart-appliances-introduced-etsi
11. SAREF SPECIFICATIONS
SAREF version 2 Technical Specification:
TS 103 264 V2.1.1

12. A multitude of other domains such as
Smart Cities, Smart AgriFood,
Smart Industry and Manufacturing,
Automotive, eHealth/Ageing-well
and Wearables, are currently on the
roadmap turning SAREF into
“Smart Anything REFerence ontology”,
which enables better integration of
semantic data from various vertical domains in the IoT
A new Specialist Task Force funded by ETSI will start in October 2017 to create 3 new
SAREF extensions for Smart Cities, Smart AgriFood, Smart Industry and Manufacturing
SAREF ROADMAP
18. THE DSF STUDY
TNO is currently performing a follow-up study on SAREF for the European Commission
in collaboration with ESMIG and DNV-GL for “ensuring interoperability for Demand Side
Flexibility” (SMART 2016/0082)
https://ec.europa.eu/digital-single-market/en/blog/digitising-energy-sector-
opportunity-europe
19. DEMAND SIDE FLEXIBILITY
Demand Side Flexibility (DSF) indicates the flexibility on
the electricity usage offered by end-consumers (i.e., the
“demand side”) to voluntary change their typical
electricity consumption patterns in response to market
signals, such as time-variable electricity prices or
incentives
The implementation of DSF not only requires energy
market players (such as grid operators) and energy
service companies to cooperate, but also their technical
infrastructures to be coupled.
21. GOAL
Goal of the study is to identify gaps in standardization, recommend alignments needed
to achieve DSF interoperability - especially in relation to SAREF and its extension for
Energy (SAREF4ENER) - and demonstrate an integrated DSF infrastructure
22. APPROACH (1/2)
Identify use cases
Identify a long list of relevant standards
Identify a short list of representative standards
Analyse data elements defined by these standards
Identify necessary alignments between data elements, especially in relation to SAREF
Propose actions & solutions for alignments to SDOs

25. STATE OF STANDARDISATION
SAREF in Home
We have identified a long list of relevant
standards and described in terms of:
Standard Acronym and Full Name
Issuing Organisation/ Technical
Committee/ Industry Alliance
Most relevant URL and other
precise references
Overall description
Description of data elements
Interface covered in the end-to-end
DSF flow
26. SHORT LIST
The following standards were identified as providing a good basis for further proceed with alignments:
CENELEC EN 50491-11 Smart Metering
CENELEC EN 50631-1 (based on EEBus SPINE)
ETSI SAREF
ETSI SAREF4ENER
FAN EFI (input to CENELEC EN 50491-12-2)
IEC 61968-9 CIM for metering
IEC 61970 CIM
IEC 62056 COSEM
KNX specification (defined in CENELEC EN 50090)
oneM2M Base Ontology
27. ALIGNEMENTS
Among the short-listed standards, we identified the need for the following alignments:
ETSI SAREF/ SAREF4ENER with oneM2M Base Ontology
CENELEC EN 50491-11 data points with COSEM objects
KNX specification with SAREF/ SAREFENER (and KNX specification with EEBus SPINE via
SAREF4ENER)
FAN EFI and SAREF/ SAREF4ENER
IEC CIM with SAREF/ SARF4ENER
28. DEMO
A demonstrator (proof of concept) of interoperability for DSF will be shown at the
European Utility Week exhibition in Amsterdam on 3-5 October 2017
Demo based on the integration of SAREF with standards (from our short list) for Energy, Demand
Side Flexibility, Smart Meters, Smart Appliances and Machine to Machine (M2M) communications
Industry contributors to the demo are Vodafone, some meter manufacturers (providing smart
meters and a Head End System), Sierra Wireless (providing a gateway and oneM2M platform) and
smart appliances manufacturers from EEBus (e.g., Bosch/Siemens)
32. CONCLUSIONS
Ultimate result of the DSF study will be a Final Study Report which will
contain the interim draft deliverables produced for the EC during the study
be updated with the feedback collected from the stakeholders during the workshop on the 19th of
June
be publicly available for the stakeholders at completion of the study (December 2017)
The demonstration of the DSF interoperability solution based on the short list will be shown at the
European Utility Week
see you in Amsterdam on 3-5 October 2017!
