New hour/date for our bi-weekly call

According to the current doodle-poll we have one possible new timeslot for our bi-weekly conference call. Its Friday 4pm CET.

We decided to keep the poll open until the end of the year. This gives members that are currently not available the chance to vote on an appropriate time slot.

Action point 3:

Please fill out the doodle poll: http://doodle.com/uts4iazfae7mz664

- All DG members

 

IDoT Use case collection

It was agreed that mapping use-cases to the SCADA (Complexity) scheme is a good exercise in order to:

1.)   Classify the use-cases in easier or more complex ones

2.)   Check whether all sub-use cases (Object-ID, ownership, registration, identification, mapping, authentication, authorization, policies etc.) are covered.

Ingo started as an example with the “Runaway use-case”.

Action point 4:

Analyze our current use-cases and identify the sub-uses cases regarding the complexity scheme (see also "Runaway dog" example)

- All use case authors

 

Landscape paper

Ingo sent around a first mindmap describing different aspects of a "IDoT Landscape".

The current challenge is to find out the most important ones.

Action point 5:

Add organizations, protocols, technologies etc. that are important from your point of view.

- All DG members

 

IDoT concept paper

We'd like to produce a paper that describes important identity concepts and terminology in the field of identity in the IoT.

Thinking of discussions we had about ownership in general, who ones of data etc.

Action point 6:

Prepare a first draft with few bullet points for discussion.

- Ingo volunteered

 

IDoT survey

Joni made the suggestion to facilitate a survey in order to identify common problems and issues in the IDoT area.

We think that the use-case analyses will help to formulate topics and questions for the questionnaire.
