ITU-T WoT

Lagally: How does ITU-T handle updates to documents?

Lagally: If we wanted to align with ITU-T terminology, how do we do amendment?

McCool: Two issues, terminology that has different meanings in ITU-T and terminology that is used differently

GyuMyoung: There are different contributions and several parties involved
... Contributions are mandatory procedures for any document ammendments

Lagally: What if the contributions are just an update?

GyuMyoung: We are developing other WoT documents as well, and we can manage this with that. But we need to coordinate with W3C if we have certain issues.

Kaz: I'm kind of confused because my expectation for today is starting with discussion on use cases and see some common use cases between ITU-T and W3C. However, the discussion so far is a bit different. Talking about how the ITU-T maintain their documents is good but we need to clearly define the scope of our liaison before diving into the detail.

Lagally: Yes, common use cases are good, it looks like ITU-T is more focused on home environments.

GyuMyoung: We also have use cases for health care, but we don't have use cases for smart cities or industrial formats.

McCool: We're creating a Smart Cities Interest Group
... This may include things beyond regular IoT

Lagally: You're drafting a use case document for health care at this time?

GyuMyoung: Yes

Lagally: Any chance if we can take a look at this draft?

GyuMyoung: We're going to have a meeting in the beginning of October, after that meeting we can send a document over.

Lagally: Is there any other documents we should look for use cases in?

GyuMyoung: Points to location in document Y.4400

Lagally: We may have discussed that in a prior call. Look forward to the use case document after your meeting in Oct.
... Thanks so much Gyu Myoung Lee for your help and being able to attend.

Y-4400 - T-REC-Y.2063-201207-I

Lagally: Looking at use cases from: https://github.com/w3c/wot-usecases/pulls

scribenick: kaz

Kaz: before diving into our GH repo, I'd like some more clarification. So the scope of our liaison between ITU-T and W3C WoT is still discussing use cases to see common ones, and we'll talk about the resulted use cases from the ITU-T meeting in October. right?

Lagally: right

scribenick: jennifer

Lagally: We will have homework to look into the common use cases between ITU-T and W3C WoT

McCool: I can volunteer to review the ITU-T documents and extract use cases.
... I'll make a PR and ask for a review for the PR
... Hopefully I can have a draft before the next meeting.
... https://github.com/w3c/wot-usecases/issues/47

Lagally: Sounds like a good plan, thank you very much.
... topic: Review of use cases contributions, you have the floor on the Open field agriculture from UNIBO

<kaz> PR 29

<kaz> Proposed smart-agriculture-openfield.md

Cristiano: Depth is where the soil starts

McCool: yes, we need depth as well as sea level series vs time stamps
... Time series also shows up in Edge-X
... Time series is important for history, like rainfall
... Look at Edge-X's example for time series

Kaz: Time series is important for media, publishing, etc. basically any kind of big data purposes.

McCool: Need to create a horizontal use case for Time Series

(Whoops, last few ml was mm)

Lagally: Created link for Time Series

Cristiano: Calibration is important due to it needing to be done for particular fields

Lagally: What do we do for a device that is not IP based?

Cristiano: That can also be described

McCool: Gateway is a concept we don't usually use

Lagally: Thank you this was a great piece of work, Cristiano

Cristiano: It's important to describe a gateway accurately compared to a sensor connected to it

McCool: This exposed there's gaps in time series.

Lagally: Let's merge this into the other issues

scribenick: kaz

Kaz:and we need to put the content into index.html as well

Lagally: also we need clean up all the MD files at the "USE-CASES" folder
... Matsukura-san and Mizushima-san, please check them and clean them up

Mizushima: ok
