<scribe> Meeting: Call of TF-DI on 22nd July

<scribe> scribe: JohannesHund

<scribe> scribeNick:jhund

Soumya: this is the last call before the sunnyvale f2f

[shows his report of TF activity]

Soumya: scope of TF-DI is to provide a generic understanding
... as well as a classification and landscaping
... we have to define discovery
... and thing description, which is a prerequisite for discovery
... we have a taxonomy in the wiki
... looking for contributors
... summary of discussions: general, use cases, scopes and dimensions, and building blocks
... building blocks comprise registration, life cycle and an abstraction layer (driver model)
... we also did a survey on the tech landscape
... resulting in 5 categories
... 1 finding things around me
... 2 finding things on my network
... 3 searching in directories
... 4 searching across peers
... 5 accessing the metadata

last one is tightly coupled to TF-TD

3 and 5 are tightly interrelated

scribe: agreements in sunnyvale:
... 1 requirements
... 2 simplification
... 3 building blocks
... 4 tech landscape
... further work will outreach to other TFs

Soumya: kick-start topics post july f2f
... interaction models to find commonalities
... as well as explorative implementations
... security and privacy is gaining importance
... plus continued landscape
... we could outreach to Sensei-IoT for their discovery approach
... tech landscape will be compiled on github
... points to wiki page
... this ends the presentation
... Questions?

Joerg: comments on conclusion objectives
... what is already agreed?

Soumya: the building blocks in abstract view are common understanding
... we decided on the mentioned three, but we have more ahead
... like authorization

Joerg: we had this discussion, but I would not put them up for conclusion as of now
... what is behind simplification of discovery?

Soumya: topics like "is discoveryy running by itself in the background?"
... how can we make it simpler to keep the human out of the loop?
... and we should agree that we have this

Joerg: shouldn't that be an exploration topic?

Soumya: agreed

Joerg: could we put building blocks for later?

Soumya: will do and send first draft to TF moderators

Joerg: what could topics be for a joint breakout between TF-DI and the security and privacy group?

Soumya: we have a discussion point on security and access mechaqnisms
... we could reduce the number of devices a user can discover by grouping

Joerg: Oliver had a pointer for the joint discussion

[Joerg points to the sec&priv-catalogue on the wiki]

Joerg: maybe take that catalogue as base for discussion
... and maybe grouped by the discovery categories
... could you do some slides for the joint session on the F2F

Soumya: will prepare that
... more comments?

Joerg: S&P will meet in the morning, TF-DI in the afternooin
... S%P will then join the other TF meetings

jhund: maybe have a solitary slide for the agreed points

Soumya: ok

Joerg: maybe assemble a first list of persons to query for topics on the landscape
... so people can arrange themselves on the meeting

Soumya: that would be it

Joerg: thanks for the report
... dsuggestions for chairing on the F2F to take your place?

Soumya: Joerg or Dave would be good
... if there is a scribe it'll be good

Joerg: could bring along conferencing equipment
... that would be unconvient time

Soumya: would be ok for me, I would like to participate if possible
