This Recommendation provides requirements for edge cloud. It introduces the overview of edge cloud management including advantages of edge cloud management and relationship with global management in distributed cloud. It describes the edge cloud management local functions and mode. Additionally, this Recommendation provides edge cloud management functional requirements derived from use cases.

ISO/IEC 30163:2021 specifies the system requirements of an Internet of Things (IoT)/Sensor Network (SN) technology-based platform for chattel asset monitoring supporting financial services, including: - System infrastructure that describes functional components; - System and functional requirements during the entire chattel asset management process, including chattel assets in transition, in/out of warehouse, storage, mortgage, etc.; - Performance requirements and performance specifications of each functional component; - Interface definition of the integrated platform system. This document is applicable to the design and development of IoT/SN system for chattel asset monitoring supporting financial services.

IEC 62832-3:2020 specifies rules of the Digital Factory framework for managing information of a production system throughout its life cycle. It also defines how the information will be added, deleted or changed in the Digital Factory by the various activities during the life cycle of the production system.

IEC 62872-2:2022 presents an IoT application framework for industrial facility demand response energy management (FDREM) for the smart grid, enabling efficient information exchange between industrial facilities using IoT related communication technologies. This document specifies:<br /> - an overview of the price-based demand response program that serves as basic knowledge backbone of the IoT application framework;<br /> - a IoT-based energy management framework which describes involved functional components, as well as their relationships;<br /> - detailed information exchange flows that are indispensable between functional components;<br /> - existing IoT protocols that need to be identified for each protocol layer to support this kind of information exchange;<br /> - communication requirements that guarantee reliable data exchange services for the application framework.

IEC 62832-1:2020 defines the general principles of the Digital Factory framework (DF framework), which is a set of model elements (DF reference model) and rules for modelling production systems. This DF framework defines: a) model of production system assets; b) a model of relationships between different production system assets; c) the flow of information about production system assets. d) The DF framework does not cover representation of building construction, input resources (such as raw production material, assembly parts), consumables, work pieces in process, nor end products.. e) It applies to the three types of production processes (continuous control, batch control, and discrete control) in any industrial sector (for example aeronautic industries, automotive, chemicals, wood).

IEC TR 63283-1:2022(E) is to compile a comprehensive collection of base terminology with compatible terms that can become relevant within the scope of Smart Manufacturing. Most of these terms refer to existing definitions in the domain of industrial-process measurement, control and automation and its various subdomains. When multiple similar definitions exist for the exact same term in different standards, this document contains only the preferred definition in the context of Smart Manufacturing. Whenever the existing definitions are not compatible with other terms in this document or when the definition does not fit into the broader scope of Smart Manufacturing, new or modified definitions are given.

IEC 62443-2-1:2010 defines the elements necessary to establish a cyber security management system (CSMS) for industrial automation and control systems (IACS) and provides guidance on how to develop those elements. This standard uses the broad definition and scope of what constitutes an IACS described in IEC/TS 62443-1-1. The elements of a CSMS described in this standard are mostly policy, procedure, practice and personnel related, describing what shall or should be included in the final CSMS for the organization. This bilingual version (2012-04) corresponds to the monolingual English version, published in 2010-11.

This draft Recommendation presents the use cases and technical requirements of application addressing in edge computing for future networks including IMT-2020. Application Addressing is the process to discover the IP address of the server which the application running on when UE intends to access the application This Recommendation specifies the following aspects of application addressing in edge computing in the context for future networks including IMT-2020: Use cases and requirements of application addressing in edge computing for future networks including IMT-2020. FMC architecture enhancement requirements.

Decentralized services (e.g., enabled by distributed ledger technologies, DLT) for IoT devices can be deployed in local area networks (e.g., in IoT devices or in local IoT gateways for constrained IoT devices) or in clouds (e.g., in remote IoT gateways or in cloud systems). When deployed in local area networks, the decentralized services will be affected by the local storage capability of peers and their computation capability and communication latency among peers. When deployed in clouds, the decentralized services will be affected by speed and efficiency of data access. With the popularization of the use of edge computing, part or whole of functionalities of DLT-based decentralized services can be deployed in edge nodes. This draft Recommendation introduces decentralized service by using DLT and edge computing technologies, which is an intermediate supporting service between decentralized services in local area networks and that in clouds. Decentralized service by using DLT and edge computing technologies is deployed in edge nodes and can facilitate interaction among peers of decentralized services, no matter where the peers are deployed (e.g., in local areas or in clouds). This draft Recommendation analyses characteristics and general requirements of decentralized service by using DLT and edge computing technologies, and provides its functional framework and relevant common capabilities, functionalities and general procedures.

The document describes a formal model and a common representation for a Web of Things (WoT) Thing Description. A Thing Description describes the metadata and interfaces of Things, where a Thing is an abstraction of a physical or virtual entity that provides interactions to and participates in the Web of Things. Thing Descriptions provide a set of interactions based on a small vocabulary that makes it possible both to integrate diverse devices and to allow diverse applications to interoperate. Thing Descriptions, by default, are encoded in a JSON format that also allows JSON-LD processing. The latter provides a powerful foundation to represent knowledge about Things in a machine-understandable way. A Thing Description instance can be hosted by the Thing itself or hosted externally when a Thing has resource restrictions (e.g., limited memory space) or when a Web of Things-compatible legacy device is retrofitted with a Thing Description.

The document presents a process for WoT discovery with two phases: introduction and exploration. The Introduction phase leverages existing discovery mechanisms but does not directly expose metadata; they are simply used to discover Exploration services, which provide metadata but only after secure authentication and authorization. This document normatively defines two Exploration services, one for WoT Thing self-description with a single WoT Thing Description and a searchable WoT Thing Description Directory service for collections of Thing Descriptions. A variety of Introduction services are also described and where necessary normative definitions are given to support them.

This document outlines the requirements of the emerging IoT Edge and its challenges. It presents a general model, and major components of the IoT Edge, to provide a common base for future discussions in T2TRG and other IRTF and IETF groups.
