Internet of Things: The Standards Landscape by Carsten Bormann
Microcontrollers have enabled adding processing and communication to many physical objects, but the result is not a simple copy of a general-purpose computing environment. Bringing these objects into the Internet requires attention to their specific constraints. Since 2005, the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has been shaping Internet protocols towards the special requirements of such constrained devices, addressing a full stack from adaptation layers to the application layer, including security protocols. Looking at 17 years of standardization, what have we achieved, and what still needs to be completed to arrive at a true Internet of Things?
Carsten Bormann likes bringing the Internet to odd places. Honorary professor for Internet Technology at the Universität Bremen, he is a member of its Center for Computing and Communications Technology (TZI). His research interests are in protocol design and system architectures for networking. In the IETF, he mainly has been working on bringing
Internet Technology to new links, applications, or radios. Since 2005, he has co-chaired, initiated, or co-authored many of the IETF efforts that now make up its Internet of Things (IoT) stack: he initiated the IETF work on Constrained RESTful Environments (CoRE) and the CoAP (Constrained Application) Protocol and co-chaired the IETF CoRE WG for its first ten years. Most recently, he launched the Thing-to-Thing Research Group (T2TRG) in the Internet Research Task Force (IRTF). He has authored and co-authored 48 Internet RFCs, which have 439 citations in other Internet RFCs.
IoT Webinar Series Kickoff by Pascal Thubert & Georgios Z. Papadopoulos
In May 2021, the IETF published the 6TiSCH architecture, the first IETF document that brings together the components defined at the IETF to enable a combination of deterministic and stochastic IPv6 traffic over a deterministic low power radio. The IoT Webinar series cover the main elements of that architecture, first placing the 6TiSCH architecture in the more general context of deterministic networking, then walking through its main elements that are 6LoWPAN Header compression, fragmentation, and Neighbor Discovery, as well as the RPL routing protocols, introducing the key design choices that lead to the standards and the resulting protocol operations.
The webinar will be composed of 5 sessions of one hour each:
Session 1: Introduction :
Session 2: 6TiSCH, DetNet & RAW Architectures RFC 9030, RFC 8655, RAW architecture draft
Session 3: IPv6 and 6LoWPAN: RFC 4919, 4944, 6282, 8025, 8930, 8931
Session 4: Routing protocol in Industrial IoT: on RPL in existing - RFCs 6550, 8138, 9008, (DAO projection)
Session 5: 6LoWPAN ND and RPL: present, interaction, future - RFC 8505, 8928, 9010, 6lo multicast draft
