oneM2M Stakeholder’s Day

Dr. Sachin Chaudhari and Ms. Anuradha Vattem gave talks at the oneM2M Stakeholder’s Day in Delhi on 24 February. This event was organized by Telecommunications Standards Development Society, India (TSDSI) and supported by the India-EU ICT Standardization Collaboration project. People from industry, government, and academia from India and abroad participated in the event.

Ms. Vattem presented oneM2M based Smart City Implementation at IIITH.  As a lead architect of the project, she presented several initiatives in the living lab on the standards-based solution for smart city applications such as monitoring of the environment, building energy, water quality and quantity, crowd, street lights, and solar energy. All these solutions are oneM2M compliant. In addition to these, she also presented our work with Indian Urban Data Exchange (IUDX), a Smart City Mission initiative to come up with data models for India’s smart cities.

Dr. Chaudhari participated in a panel discussion on the importance of standards and integrating them into the college curriculum. He informed the audience that IIITH had integrated standards such as oneM2M in the curriculum. In addition, the IIITH team has created a MOOC on oneM2M.

Later, as a coordinator of the Center of Excellence on IoT for Smart Cities, Dr. Chaudhari also apprised the gathering about the different activities taken as part of CoE, such as Knowledge and Collaboration initiatives.  Under knowledge initiatives, several workshops and hackathons were conducted. Under collaboration initiatives, the IIITH delegation visited Estonia in January 2019 and France in July 2019. The visit to France was very fruitful as it resulted in the setup of the Living Lab at IIITH. Also, it resulted in the ongoing collaboration between IIITH and French universities, LAAS-CNRS and INSA, Toulouse in particular.

The activities done at IIITH on IoT and Smart Cities were well appreciated by the audience as it is a one-of-a-kind implementation where extensive use of oneM2M is made for smart city use cases.

 

 

Dr. Sachin Chaudhari, Ms. Anuradha Vattem, and the smart city team at IIITH received a lot of appreciation for convincingly bringing out the  importance of standards-related work in smart city development.
