Hyderabad : IIIT-Hyderabad is hosting a developer tutorial on 27-28 October using open source implementation of oneM2M, developed by French research lab, LAAS – CNRS and organised by India EU ICT Standards Collaboration Project. This activity is part of India-EU Partnership Project for Collaboration on ICT standardization, Policy and Regulatory matters, which is jointly anchored by TSDSI and ETSI, the Telecom SDOs from India and EU respectively.
The tutorial, conducted by a team of French professors from University of Toulouse will enable technology developers and students to build standards compliant applications for Internet of Things and provide interoperability and other key benefits of standardisation.
