The IoE can be roughly categorized in 2 application areas: Information, Awareness & Analysis on the one side and Automation, Control & Optimization on the other hand. In this session, we will talk about applications and business models within those 2 areas, how they will evolve and how they will impact your infrastructure.
The Internet of Things (IoT) is beginning to evolve and early solutions are now being implemented. We can find implementations in areas like logistics, farming, home automation and many others. But its restrictions become obvious as we try to connect solutions of different vendors, communities or standard groups. Apart from communication protocols new identity management mechanisms are crucial for a growing Internet of Things. This presentation discusses real project examples and introduces challenges coming from the Identities of Things as well as possible solutions encompassing identifier, mapping, discovery, authentication, authorization and privacy.
