Highlight of Current Activities at TIA TR-50 • Following presentation by Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) delegation at GSC-14, TIA Engineering Committee on Smart Device Communications was launched in December 2009; Chair and Vice Chair were elected in February 2010 • TR-50.1 subcommittee on Requirements and Architecture was subsequently created; Chair and Vice Chair were elected in April 2010. TR50.1 project references to date: During Development (i.e., Project Phase) • PN-3-0411.000 – List of Parts • PN-3-0411.001 – Common Terminology • PN-3-0411.005 – Reference Architecture Publication Document Number • TIA-1203.000 – List of Parts • TIA-1203.001 – Common Terminology • TIA-1203.005 – Reference Architecture

  3. Highlight of Current Activities at TIA TR-50 (cont’d) • As of GSC-15, 5 TR-50 meetings since creation with participants from a wide range of organizations in private sector and government from North America, Europe, China, India and Japan • Work to date: review of use cases for related applications and common set of requirements • Collaboration with trade organizations and academia, for instance, TR-50 participation at Connected World in June 2010 in Chicago, IL and at the M2M Evolution Conference in October 2010 in Los Angeles, CA and discussions with Georgia Institute of Technology, especially in the area of data security • Internal cooperation with other TIA groups: TR-45 (Mobile and Personal Communications Systems Standards), TR-48 (Vehicular Telematics), TR-49 (Healthcare ICT) and Emerging Technologies Subcommittee • Liaison with SDOs and such organizations e.g. participation at IEEE workshop at Santa Clara University, CA in September 2010 on Smart Grid, Emerging devices and "the Internet of Things“, and, also, at ETSI M2M Workshop in October 2010 in Sophia Antipolis, France • Actively involved in Third Generation Partnership Project 2 (3GPP2) • Open collaboration through TIA website

  4. TIA TR-50 Scope (Chair: Jeffrey Smith, Numerex; Vice Chair: Jim Wert, ILS Technology) • Engineering Committee TR-50 Smart Device Communications is responsible for the development and maintenance of access agnostic interface standards for the monitoring and bi-directional communication of events and information between smart devices and other devices, applications or networks. • TR-50 will develop a Smart Device Communications framework that can operate over different underlying transport networks (wireless, wired, etc.) and can be adapted to a given transport network by means of an adaptation/convergence layer. • The TR-50 framework will make its functionality available to applications through a well-defined Application Programming Interface (API) that is agnostic to the vertical application domain (eHealth, Smart Grid, Industrial Automation, etc.)

  5. TIA TR-50.1 Scope Requirements and Architecture (Chair: Peter Nurse, Sigma Delta; Vice Chair: Mitch Tseng, Huawei) • Requirements shall be agnostic to the application (e.g. eHealth, Smart Grid, Industrial Automation, etc.), but shall reflect the requirements of the applications of interest. Examples of such publications include Use Cases and Stage-1 Descriptions. • System architecture shall be agnostic to the application, but shall reflect the requirements of the applications of interest, including their information models. • Data models requirements shall be agnostic to the application, but shall reflect the requirements of the applications of interest. • In its work, Subcommittee TR-50.1 shall take account of the following: Security (e.g., data content, authentication, signaling); End to End Performance and scalability of equipment and networks; and Device Management (incl. discovery and identity)
