“…In order to be successful and sufficiently fast, standardization needs cross-sectoral systems thinking [1] as well as multidisciplinary, flexible and comprehensive processes and new tools [1], [46], [47]. Some such new approaches and tools have emerged in recent years, such as roadmaps [1], [48], use cases [49], requirements engineering approaches [50], Reference Architectures [51], standards mapping [52], and anticipation and foresight studies [46]. One tool that has recently attracted global attention is testbeds.…”

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) poses multiple challenges to traditional standardization, due to the complexity, dynamics, and accelerating speed of technological progress. The need for a timely availability of standards calls for new approaches and tools to enhance standardization processes for smart manufacturing. Industry and standards development organizations worldwide are seeking new solutions. Testbeds have been acknowledged in innovation policy as a powerful tool for knowledge transfer and the further development of emerging technologies. Lately, they have also attracted increasing attention from the standardization perspective as a promising tool for a more agile standards development process. Proponents of such testbeds expect them to support standardization by providing validated solutions and accelerating the processes to meet the growing demands for faster standardization without any detriment to quality. In an explorative, qualitative approach this article is the first to investigate the operation and impact of testbeds in standardization processes based on a multiple case study on testbeds implemented worldwide in the context of the IIoT.

“…SUN is the next-generation utility network equipped with communication technologies facilitating enhancements to optimize the consumption of resources. Examples of applications are Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), Demand Response (DR), Distribution Automation (DA), and others, developed to enable efficient resource management [24,25]. Targeted utility services for these applications are typical, but not limited to power, water, natural gas, and sewage utility systems.…”

This paper presents the experimental performance evaluation results of the IEEE 802.15.4/4g/4e Smart Utility Networks (SUN) in applications suited for outdoor environment. SUN is an advanced wireless communications network designed for reliable, low data rate, and low energy consumption networks for command-and-control applications like utility service, sensor network, and so on. IEEE 802.15.4g/4e is the international standard for SUN supported by multiple utility providers and product vendors. In this paper, a comprehensive field test was conducted by employing the implementation we have developed to evaluate the performance of the SUN devices based on IEEE 802.15.4/4g/4e standard. The output power of the implementation is 250 mW for extended range, reducible to 20 mW for short-range scalability and battery preservation. Results showed that in an outdoor line-of-sight environment, the achievable one-hop range of a 50 kbps SUN device was 450 m. Next, in a non-line-of-sight environment involving typical residential concrete building, the communications could be established penetrating obstructions to reach above the 11th storey, reaching the performance degradation limits at the 20th storey. Next, the network of the SUN system was proven to be capable of supporting a typical multihop tree network in a dense populated building, meeting the required performance by the standard.

“…The requirements arising in context of the other phases of the ADM shall be collected, organized and distributed to the [18]. Based on the IEC/PAS 62559, a use case template and management process is currently under development and shall support standardization in context of Smart Grids (see [19]). The use of such domain specific models and languages reduces the potential of misunderstanding and eases the integration in contexts with multiple stakeholders.…”

Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) shall be applied in context of the power system to efficiently manage (renewable) generation, storage and consumption of electrical energy. Discussed under the term Smart Grids, this trend also impacts the ICT-architectures of enterprises concerned with the power system. Especially utilities are expected to adapt their enterprise ICT-architectures regarding various technology fields from grid automation to customer services in order to ensure the systems reliability and realize new business capabilities. This contribution outlines a domain specific planning approach to derive business requirements from technology roadmaps as external reference models for the long-term planning of enterprise ICTarchitectures supporting Smart Grid functionalities.
