ABSTRACT
The Internet of Things (IoT), as an emerging technology, has the potential to boost innovation in many industrial sectors, as well as to help address many societal challenges including climate change, resource and energy efficiency and ageing. This chapter presents the main initiatives that contribute to the analysis of the current status and dynamics of the IoT standardization and outlines their early findings. It introduces three initiatives that target the analysis and understanding of the IoT standards landscape. The objectives of UNIFY-IoT are to stimulate the collaboration between IoT projects, between the potential IoT platforms and to support them in sustaining the IoT ecosystems developed by focusing on complementary actions. The AIOTI WG03 has developed the AIOTI High Level Architecture for IoT (AIOTI HLA), a standard framework or architecture for IoT that should be applicable to IoT Large-Scale Pilots.
