This report presents an approach reported in AIOTI, for the definition and identification of key Edge Computing standardisation gaps in several initiatives. This report then starts to address the work done within the relevant SDOs that need to cooperate in order to solve these standardisation gaps.
In the context of EUOS and AIOTI, the synergy and integration of IoT/IIoT and edge computing, is considered to be a part of the paradigm shift from centralised solutions to decentralised and distributed computing architectures, in which information processing is located close to the edge, where “things” (e.g. sensors/actuators, devices, machines and humans) produce and utilise that information, knowledge and related experience.
The purpose of this document is to promote a structured discussion within the EUOS, AIOTI and edge computing standardisation community and to provide consolidated technical elements as well as guidance and recommendations.
Release 2 of this report uses the approach that has been defined in Release 1, for the definition and identification of key Edge Computing standardisation gaps in several initiatives. In particular, this release of the report:
- included 16 additional challenges that are covering Edge Internet of Things (IoT) Industrial Immersive Technologies;
- listed any additional specifications that were published by SDOs that might cover the identified Edge computing challenges;
- identified and selected the SDOs and specifications that might cover the identified Edge computing challenges;
- selected which of the identified challenges are intensively covered by the SDOs and specifications and which are less intensively covered by the SDOs and specification.
