EPCGlobal... Standardization is not THE solution (simply a part of it).

EPCGlobal set of standards are one of the best available resources one can use to address traceability issues in closed or semi-open loops.

However, I consider the current EPCGlobal vision and concepts as somehow "limited" in its willingness and capacity to address every kind of actors in any situation (too much standardization, too many deterministic views, etc.).

This is why my company is using different approaches to enhance / leverage existing solutions (artificial intelligence, decisional analysis, etc.).

What has been done on DS (Discovery Services) so far (BRIDGE project, IETF, etc.) is, to my point of view, not always adapted to the market (real life) and I really wonder whether EPCGlobal will succeed or not with such an issue.

Actully deterministic and probabilistic approaches (some of the experimented ones) are not suited to treat complexity...

Internet des objets et Systèmes Informatiques de gestion : les solutions pour enfin rendre ce concept opérationnel ? (et pour en finir avec les crises ?)

Changer notre façon de concevoir nos systèmes d’information va permettre de répondre aux nouveaux besoins et enjeux induits par la Mondialisation des échanges, l’Internet des Objets et – surtout - éviter l’impasse que constituent les méthodes de conception actuelles !

Internet des Objets et relations "producteurs-consommateurs"

Objectifs de cet exposé :

  • Ne pas donner une vision “boule de cristal”
  • La “révolution” à venir est trop “profonde” pour en appréhender – à date - les bénéfices les plus importants
  • Donner les clés de compréhension des opportunités à venir
  • Avoir les outils pour déceler les opportunités et bénéfices de cette “révolution”

Very interesting article from Kevin Kelly in WIRED

In a very interesting article from WIRED, Kevin Kelly explains how a "single worldwide computer" will raise from technological evolution.

See : http://www.wired.com/special_multimedia/2008/st_infoporn_1607

I also posted a comment :


One machine” (with a potential finality) or “one system” (with no necessary one) ?

It will be, for sure, a "complex" and non deterministic system made of billions of autonomous and self-decisioned actors (entities) with their own independent finalities.

Referring to "complex systems theories", the question is : "for which global ending ?” - chaotic evolution or targeted direction ?....

In the meanwhile complexity is increasing : it is time to switch to full systemic approaches in the design of our Information systems !

Your comments would be higly appreciated !

Use of “semantic approaches” : for a switch from existing EDI to « Any-to-Any communication » in the Internet of Things (and extending the current “semantic web”)

Intrinsically, the Internet of Things will be « non deterministic », complex and various although, so far, the ongoing standardization models (eg : EPCGlobal) are still apprehending deterministic value chains or processes.....
In such an environment, the use of Semantic approaches will, possibly, give a “meaning” to every kind of message and will accordingly facilitate communications whoever will be the actors, even though they have no prior interchange agreement.

An interesting article (in French) from "LEMAGIT" : Lilian Prud'homme, Thin-Track : « pour l'Internet des objets, il faut tout repenser »

"Les développements et les technologies qui entourent l'Internet des objets et la RFID sont encore loin d'atteindre les standards requis pour une mise en production efficace. Et pour cause, les développements qui servent aujourd'hui de base n'ont peut-être pas pris un bon départ, semble dire Lilian Prud'homme, directeur technique de Thin-Track. Freinant ainsi les mises en production. Portrait en demi-teinte de l'Internet des objets et de son avancement actuel." (source : LEMAGIT)

Some thoughts on the “Internet of Things” or so-called “Web 3.0”

Abstract :
''Recently, Vinton Cerf made an association between the raising concept of the Internet of Things (“I-o-T” is an abstract gathering several others such as “M2M”, “sensor, mesh, pervasive or ubiquitous networks”, “EPCGlobal standards”, etc.) and the appellation “WEB 3.0” (seen in an article : www.lemonde.fr, 5th april 2008). Instead of seeing it as a new IT marketing stuff, I’ve tried to sort out what need there would be to use such a word, moreover considering that most people still don’t know what Web 2.0 is…..''
