Author(s)
Yuyin Song, Thomas Roth, Peter Waher, Helbert da Rocha, Riccardo Brama, Hiroaki Nishi, Antonio Espirito-Santo
The Internet of Things (IoT) is highly heterogeneous regarding smart sensors/devices, connectivity, communication protocols, and data formats. The major challenges of IoT ecosystems are fragmentation (or disintegration) and cross-domain interoperability

The IEEE 1451 Playground: A Web-Based Tool for Standard Education

November 6, 2025
Author(s)
Yuyin Song, Helbert da Rocha, Antonio Espirito-Santo, Riccardo Brama
The technical standards are employed in everyday tasks, such as connection to the internet or with nearby devices. The process to learn a new technical standard is difficult and needs time, as the standards have complex documentation that needs to be
