FW: Info Only FW: Identity of Things DG & IBM concepts

Folks I don't necessarily agree with everything here, but it has some good insights IMHO.
. ..
and some potential learnings for our constituents should we wish to/be able to reference this.
.
The 2 page Exec Summary at the front doesn’t do the rest of the doc justice IMHO.
.
the Gold is further back.

Subject: [DG-IDoT] FW: Identity of Things DG & IBM concepts Dear All, I promised last time to send around IBM whitepaper and links about IoT. Sorry for the delay L I like the paper because it shows also some critical points like broken business model, lack of functional value, privacy etc. Other interesting points are: - They foresee p2p infrastructure as a predominant topology (like we talked about nodes and super – nodes in our last call) - They describe quite good a trust-concept I mentioned last time in our call block chains - And also very interesting is the idea of trustless-p2p messaging Ingo The 2015 IBV Study on Internet of Things - Device Democracy: http://ibm.biz/DeviceDemocracy (This takes you to the landing page, the link to the full paper is on the right hand side of the page) Some of the Related Press Coverage: http://gigaom.com/2014/09/09/check-out-ibms-proposal-for-an-internet-of-things-architecture-using-bitcoins-block-chain-tech/ http://venturebeat.com/2014/08/24/the-internet-of-things-will-cost-companies-more-than-theyre-ready-for/ http://qz.com/269812/five-ways-the-internet-of-things-is-already-broken-and-how-to-fix-it/ Kind regards Ingo Friese Deutsche Telekom AG T-Labs (Research & Innovation) Dipl.-Ing.
