Draft Scope Statement:

The IOT will incorporate many physical devices, sensors and facilities into a variety of public and private networks.  This possibility presents many opportunities and challenges for our members and the world.

Potential areas for innovation

• Cost-effective uses of advanced networking capabilities (rapid delivery of big data, low latency and jitter for remote synchronous applications, IPv6)
• Integration of capabilities for compliance, security, and privacy in large-scale IoT applications

Some related initiatives

• Many individual member institution programs
• NSF projects in “cyber-physical systems”
• Industrial Internet Consortium test beds

A few potential use cases

• Smart homes, campuses, and cities (including transportation, public safety, energy and power, building operations, …)
• Health care (Internet of medical Things, telemedicine, genomics and proteomics, medical imagery, …)
• Industrial manufacturing
