The Smart City Paradigm: Paradise for Future Internet Research and Experimentation Prof. Luis Muñoz Laboratories for R+D+I in Telecommunications, 39005-Santander; Spain University of Cantabria luis@tlmat.unican.es Valladolid, 22nd December 2010

2. Internet of Things (IoT) Integrating IoT in the Future Internet IoT impact on network behavior Looking for research with impact Smart Cities: Paradise for living labs SmartSantander base-line architecture Hardware infrastructure & sensor type diversity Conclusions Outline

3. Valladolid, 22nd December 2010 Heterogeneous devices/objects such as RFID, smart cards, sensors, actuators, … Machine to machine (M2M) term is used instead of IoT. However, M2M is a subset of M2M. Standardization activities in the ETSI conducted by ETSI TC M2M Smart metering E-Health New Long Term Evolution (LTE) profile, fitting M2M requirements, under discussion Internet of Things (1/3)

4. Valladolid, 22nd December 2010 Internet of Things (2/3) ITU-T work on ubiquitous sensor networks (USN)

5. Valladolid, 22nd December 2010 Plethora of heterogeneous devices accessing the NGN backbone through a plethora of access networks. IoT architecture definition encompassing:  Protocols and interfaces  Services European projects to monitor at the time being IoT-A (Internet of Things Architecture; IP) IoT-i (Internet of Things Initiative; CA) SmartSantander (IP) Internet of Things (3/3)

6. Valladolid, 22nd December 2010 The presence of a huge number of heterogeneous IoT devices imposes a set of open questions about the performance of access networks (mainly wireless). It is not yet valid to make an approach solely based on simplified analytical models or simulations. A much more ambitious approach is needed. IoT impact on network behavior

7. Valladolid, 22nd December 2010 A lot of Future Internet research has crystallized in terms of relevant publications, prototypes and simulations. Just as an example Many RFCs Some of them are very successful: Mobile IPv4 (RFC 3344, Charles Perkins) Mobile IPv6 (RFC 3775) Raptor Codes (RFC 5053) However, is this enough? Looking for research with true impact (1/2)

8. Valladolid, 22nd December 2010 There is a need to provoke higher impact. – Increasing end-user involvement ⇒ Increases social awareness concerning research – Prioritizing innovation What are the tools? Looking for research with true impact (2/2)

9. Valladolid, 22nd December 2010 Smart cities represent a unique ecosystem which fits the requirements of research driven by innovation. – End-users (citizens) – Local authorities and their requirements, constraints, interests,… – Service and technology providers (SMEs, companies,…) – Researchers Smart cities: Paradise for living labs

10. Valladolid, 22nd December 2010 Smart Santander aims at deploying a unique Internet of Things infrastructure for carrying out experimental research in the framework of a city The infrastructure has to provide support to the – Research community – End-users (inhabitants, local authorities,…) – Service providers …and has to be SUSTAINABLE SmartSantander and living labs

11. Valladolid, 22nd December 2010 SmartSantander in a nutshell 20.000 IoT devices

12. Valladolid, 22nd December 2010 SmartSantander baseline architecture (1/2)

13. Valladolid, 22nd December 2010 Previous architecture aims at producing the following key target outcomes: – An architectural reference model for open real-world Internet of Things – A scalable, heterogeneous and trustable large-scale-real world experimental facility – A representative set of implemented use cases including end-users and services providers besides the traditional scientific community – A large set of Future Internet experiments and results Current functionality: – SENSEI provides support for services to access Sensor Networks – WISEBED provides experimentation support at the Sensor Network level – Telefonica’s USN provides sensor data storage and Telecom Services Additional functionality expected: – Mobility– Horizontality and federation – Data mining– User experience – Security Providing users a 24/7 operational and reliable facility implies Top Quality System SmartSantander baseline architecture (2/2)

14. Valladolid, 22nd December 2010 Hardware infrastructure & sensor type diversity Personal care and assistance ZigBee RF modules Micro-controllers The type of sensors and mobile devices to be used is very much related to the different use cases that the project is planning to implement, some of them related to: – Public buildings, installations monitoring and management – Parks and gardens control and management – Public Transportation and traffic control – Environmental management and monitoring A wide range of sensors and mobile devices is considered. GPS, presence, smoke & gas detectors, IP video cameras RFID tracking ZigBee / 3G, WiFi, Ethernet gateways Environmental: Temperature, humidity pressure, ambient light, CO 2, wind speed...

15. Valladolid, 22nd December 2010 IoT represents a new paradigm for Internet of the Future – New architecture, protocols, interfaces and services to be conceived New approach to the research – End user involvement needed but NOT user driven – Higher impact – Innovation as a key axis Living labs are becoming a relevant ecosystem – Smart cities represent an appropriate instantiation of living labs SmartSantander invites you to experiment IoT in the framework of the smart city http://www.smartsantander.eu Conclusions
