IPSO Alliance Announces New Endeavors for 2013
COLORADO SPRINGS, CO, Jan 02, 2013 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
As a result of efforts to develop relationships with other Alliances
globally such as ETSI, the IPv6 Forum, Z-Wave Alliance, and Zigbee,
IPSO has recently reached an agreement to partner with the IP500
Alliance (www.ip500alliance.org). "Our rapidly growing worldwide OEM
membership all share the vision of the open communication standard of
IP (6LoWPAN / IPv6) extending to billions of devices, such as those
used in building safety, security and building automation
applications. The IP500 solution is a turn-key RF Module which now
allows OEMs to develop, implement and maintain a fully interoperable
wireless IP network of different objects (e.g., low-power sensors in
a building)," said Helmut Adamski, Chairman, IP500 Alliance.
The IPSO Alliance has seated a new Technical Advisory Board (TAB)
comprised of Jari Arkko from Ericsson, Matt Gillmore from ITRON and
Yoshihiro Ohba from Toshiba. They began work on building a new
technical information section on the IPSO website. It was a priority
for the TAB to update the website to include the most relevant and
informative information available. The new information on the website
covers news about standards developments relevant for IP-based smart
object systems, a "Getting Started" guide for building objects that
can communicate, the IPSO Application Framework and pointers for
commercial products that consumers can buy today. All this
information is available at
http://www.ipso-alliance.org/technical-information. The Alliance is
looking for updates and feedback from both IPSO members and the
general public on this information as more and more systems are
becoming "smart."
IPSO's Interoperability (Interop) Committee is hard at work
developing a new series of interoperability tests for 2013. Following
the success of the 2012 interops that focused on Smart Energy, IPSO
now plans to focus on building automation and building control for
the next series of interoperability events and will continue its
partnership with ETSI for other future tests.
Additionally, IPSO is working with a number of conferences around the
globe to increase awareness of the benefits of embedded IP networks
and IP in M2M applications. IPSO members will be present at a number
of upcoming events, including CES 2013 and SensorsCon, and available
to speak with anyone interested in the Alliance and our work in the
Smart Object arena. IPSO is also partnering with Parks Associates'
Smart Energy Summit once again this year as a sponsor, as well as
Energy Harvesting and Storage in Berlin and the M2M India Summit in
New Delhi. If you are interested in partnering with IPSO for your
event, please contact marketing@ipso-alliance.org.

The IPSO Alliance is the primary advocate of
IP for Smart Objects for use in energy, consumer, healthcare, and
industrial applications. The Alliance, a non-profit organization
whose members include leading technology, communications and energy
companies, promotes the use of the Internet Protocol to serve as the
foundation for a network of sensor-enabled physical objects to
communicate with each other as seamlessly as individuals do over the
Internet.
IPSO Alliance membership is open to any organization supporting an
IP-based approach to connecting smart objects. For more information,
