Common approach to smart home
services
• HG Platform delivered by BSP
• BSP and Partner Cloud Platforms
• Application can be delivered by partners
• GUI based service control
• Remote Access
User expectations for the control of smart home:
- Better user interfaces (smart phone/tablets)
- Access from anywhere (in home, out of home)
- Homogeneous installation (“Plug&Play”) mechanisms
- Evolution of the services

FROM HOME AUTOMATION
… TO SMART HOME
Migration towards multi-Service offers
Connectivity
Selection from the multiple possible technologies.
Ecosystem
Abstraction layer to hide the connectivity-technologies heterogeneity.
Application Development and Device Semantics
Enlarging the panel of applications: openness to 3rd party applications.
From independently specified semantics of end devices to cross-domain interactions.
HGI activities
Connectivity / WHAN requirements
• HGI collaborative work with the
different technology alliances (ZigBee
Alliance, enOcean;etc.)
Ecosystem
• Modularity software Requirements
Enablers for cross-domain
interactions
• Encouraging application
development: SH ref. architecture
with open APIs to 3rd parties
• A common data model -> HGI/BBF

SHAL: SMART HOME ABSTRACTION LAYER
A KEY ENABLER FOR SMARTHOME
 SHAL: Smart Home Abstraction Layer
 Used by local applications to address HAN connected devices without


awareness of technology-specific details
Enabled by the HGI Open Platform 2.0 framework
Can also be used by M2M framework to address these devices
 Top level
 Generic commands available to applications
 Common data model
 Bottom level
 technology specific semantic/data model
 Choose a small set of key HANs that span the major operator needs
 Pass-through
 Direct access to technology specific semantics

SMART HOME INDUSTRY
EXPECTATIONS FOR IOT/M2M STANDARDS
• Standard way to connect Cloud applications to home devices
• Learn from (and build on) existing deployments/specs/APIs
• An extensible standard supporting
• Multiple business models (OTT, Operator-managed, 3rd-Party, etc)
• Multiple deployment scenarios (logic in the Cloud, in a HGW, etc)
• Unified APIs, independent of underlying HAN technologies,
for applications to control home appliances
• APIs to interact with devices independent of (wireless) connection
technology
• Support for enriched Smart Home services
• Smart Home Semantics as part of more generic IOT/M2M Semantics,
in order to allow for cross-application interactions

EXAMPLE FOR SMART ENERGY USE CASE
Home Domain Overload Management
USE CASE: Mr Martin wants to start
his washing machine. The system
collects consumption data from the
smart meter. Based on washing
machine consumption profile and
Energy Utility tariffs, the system
suggests to defer the start one hour.

Current Work on WHAN Requirements
Major HGI Operators have discussed requirements for selecting
a WHAN interface suitable for smart home services
The document RD039 has just been ratified by the HGI member
companies is available to the public at

DEVICE MODEL TEMPLATE DOCUMENT
A common template to represent Smart
Home devices
“common denominator” models of smart
home devices
Ideally approved by all participating
organizations (BBF, HGI, OneM2M,
OSGi-A, …)
Template has an informal (text) and a
formal section (machine-readable,
probably XML based)
Template needs to be instantiated for
specific devices by domain specific
organizations
The Template is being developed in an
open-source framework
