Almost every industrial domain faces the challenge of dealing with the diversity of sensors and equipment involved. The promising capabilities and performance potential of new devices, technologies, interfaces and protocols deployed fuels this diversity. Nevertheless, ad-hoc integration may result in systems quickly becoming too complex and expensive to manage, resulting in counter-productive processes.

This tutorial will present the benefits of introducing an abstraction level through modular middleware dedicated to integrating heterogeneous IoT data sources. It will be shown how to keep under control the integration over time – of adding newer heterogeneous IoT data to existing infrastructures - by leveraging semantics and built-in flexible data modelling.

Agenda:

• 14:00 | Introduction
• 14:05 | Presentation of IoT protocol and data integration technologies. Speaker: Lotfi Guedria, Department Manager at CETIC (www.cetic.be)
• 14:50 | Questions & Discussion

About the STARS project

The STARS project organises this tutorial. The application of advanced technologies and their Europe-wide dissemination in internal company processes should help significantly improve traditional SMEs' adaptability from the rail and mobility sector to the changed economic environment after the Corona crisis and increase their competitiveness on a European scale. The project thus contributes to the European Commission's economic stimulus package. To achieve this, the STARS project aims to support international cooperation between technology-savvy SMEs/start-ups and traditional SMEs.
