Goal of Wi-SUN (Wireless Smart Ubiquitous Network) is to create interoperable Smart Utility and Smart City networks from multiple vendors, as stated in IEEE 802.15.4g - open wireless standard specification for Smart Utility Networks. Wi-SUN provides FAN (Field Area Network), a wireless mesh networks for AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure), distribution automation, home energy management and other large scale outdoor network applications (asset management, environmental monitoring, agriculture monitoring, health monitoring). Wi-SUN is developing testing programs not just for IEEE 802.15.4g compliance, but also for confirmation of interoperability with other vendors - Wi-SUN Certified. Thus large scale roll-outs are faster, easier to…

Lately there’s a lot of talk about blockchain usage in IoT world, so I decided to investigate what’s it all about and in this post I’ll share with you some of my findings. First of all, what is a blockchain?  Blockchain is a list of data records called blocks, each of them contains a cryptographic hash of a previous one, then timestamp and transaction data.

AI is academic discipline since 1956. and it had its ups and downs - today it’s gaining popularity as great improvements were made in computing power, storage, big data and advanced algorithms. Traditional AI research are focused on: reasoning, problem solving, knowledge representation, planning, learning, natural language processing, perception,…
