The UN-run International Telecommunications Union (ITU) has set up a study group that will set an international standard for the technology to enable low-power communications between machines and sensor networks.
Study Group 20 will be officially called “IoT and its applications, including smart cities and communities”. It’s focus will be on “standards that leverage IoT technologies to address urban-development challenges.”
The Group is likely to come up with an end-to-end architecture for IoT, and so allow for full interoperability of both applications and datasets.
