The work of the IETF ROLL WG significantly impacts European SMEs by developing internationally recognised open standards, such as RPL. RPL presents multiple open-source implementations has been tested through extensive simulations and continuous evaluations. Also, RPL meets all their required capabilities, such as energy-efficient mechanisms, which are pivotal for sustainable growth.
Moreover, the continuous enhancements by the ROLL WG are vital for the evolution and adaptation of new use cases pertinent to the European context. These improvements ensure robust interoperability and adherence to security standards, both critical for SMEs operating in the dynamic European market. This commitment to excellence and relevance is applied in the standard reviews carried out within the IETF Directorates, such as IoT, Routing, and General-Area sectors. Such endeavours underscore our dedication to supporting European SMEs' technological advancement and operational efficiency.
