IoT (Internet of Things) is a collective term referring to application services that provide information through sensors/devices connected to the internet. The real world application of IoT is expanding fast along with growing number of sensors/devices. However, since IoT application relies on vertical combination of sensors/devices networks, information sharing within IoT services remains unresolved challenge. Consequently, IoT sensors/devices demand high construction and maintenance costs, rendering the creation of new IoT services potentially expensive. One solution is to launch an IoT open market for information sharing similar to that of App Store for smart-phones. Doing so will efficiently allow novel IoT services to emerge across various industries, because developers can purchase licenses to access IoT resources directly via an open market. Sharing IoT resource information through an open market will create an echo-system conducive for easy utilization of resources and communication between IoT service providers, resource owners, and developers. This paper proposes the new business model of IoT open market for information sharing, and the requirements for ensuring security and standardization of open markets.

The governments in many country recently focus their efforts on developing the industry of Internet of Thing (IoT). At the same time, each industrial field considers to apply the IoT concept and develops their own IoT system for upgrading the existing services or launching new services. In the railway field, many organizations such as Korea Rail Network Authority (KR) expect that the IoT concept can bring many good effects and try to adopt IoT to their existing railway services. In this paper, we survey the current technology level of IoT platform, which is a core technology to realize IoT, and figure out the technical requirements and challenges to apply IoT platform to railway environments.

Today various IoT platforms exist, but most of them only consider IPv6, without other types of network including private network. They support, therefore, the private network to use virtual private network or through the hardware gateway. To solve this limitation, we propose a IoT platform that provides IoT Services on private networks. Also we verify this platform though constructing a testbed.

With the rapid development of IoT(Internet of Things) technology, various convenient services such as smart home and smart city have been realized. However, IoT devices in unmanned environments are exposed to various security threats including eavesdropping and data forgery, information leakage due to unauthorized access. To build a secure IoT environment, it is necessary to use proper cryptographic technologies to IoT devices. But, it is impossible to apply the technologies applied in the existing IT environment, due to the limited resources of the IoT devices. In this paper, we survey the classification of IoT devices according to the performance and analyze the security requirements for IoT devices. Also we survey and analyze the use of cryptographic technologies in the current status of IoT open standard platform such as AllJoyn, oneM2M, IoTivity. Based on the research of cryptographic usage, we examine whether each platform satisfies security requirements. Each IoT open platform provides cryptographic technology for supporting security services such as confidentiality, integrity, authentication an authorization. However, resource constrained IoT devices such as blood pressure monitoring sensors are difficult to apply existing cryptographic techniques. Thus, it is necessary to study cryptographic technologies for power-limited and resource constrained IoT devices in unattended environments.

IoT is the foundation technology that the things share the information through connected with Internet to provide service based on these information. It is applied to various fields such as personal, public and industry. Therefore, the service development is required to meet the requirement of the various service environments. The IoT service environment will be developed as the participation IoT service environment which increase the value and efficiency such as the Broadcasting and web services changed from the service provider environment to the user participation service. The user can directly reflect their requirements using the user participation IoT service environment. So, the types of IoT services will diverse and accelerate the spread of IoT service. In this paper, we derive the IoT service element through the analysis of various service scenarios, and propose the participation IoT service model and modeling mechanism. It provides the sequential service model and the relation based service model according to the service modeling proficiency of user. The proposed environment provides the web-based user interface that is implemented by the participation IoT service brokering platform.

Accompanying the Internet of Things (IoT) is a demand of advanced applications and services utilizing the potential of the IoT environment. Monitoring the environment for a provision of context-aware services to the human beings is one of the new trends in our future life. The IoTivity Cloud is one of the most notable open-source platform bringing an opportunity to collect, analyze, and interpret a huge amount of data available in the IoT environment. Based on the IoTivity Cloud, we aim to develop a novel platform for comprehensive monitoring of a future network, which facilitates on-demand data collection to enable the network behavior prediction and the quality of user experience maintenance. In consideration of performance evaluation of the monitoring platform, this paper presents results of a preliminary test on the data acquisition/supply process in the IoTivity Cloud.

The era of IoT in which all objects are intelligent and are connected to the Internet has been started. In order to establish and activate an IoT eco system, open services platform is very important. In this paper, we developed a gateway that utilize the Raspberry Pi which is open source hardware for IoT open service platform. The gateway supports a variety of wireless interface and equipped with MQTT, a standard messaging protocol for IoT. To confirm main function of developed gateway, we built a IoT test bed and verified normal operation of our gateway.

In recent years, the maker culture has realized the concept of 'making' itself through the latest technology of high technology. It is rapidly spreading as a maker's movement by sharing the production methods and information of individuals through the Internet. Countries that are leading the makers' movement expect the maker's movement to be the driving force for new value creation and economic growth from the point of view of things and the Internet. We are developing various types of open IoT platforms that can register various Internet devices and services manufactured and developed through DIY and realize interoperable services. Typical open IoT platforms require specialized API analysis capabilities and difficult access to general users due to difficult platform registration conditions and procedures. In this paper, we try to construct an open IoT platform that can be operated as a real service by creating a simple Internet application device and service application from a general manufacturer's point of view.
