Axel Rennoch – Internet of Things Quality Assurance

Axel Rennoch is information processor scientists at the Fraunhofer Institute for Open Communication Systems in Berlin. As a member of the System Quality Competence centre he is involved / responsible for validation and testing projects on next generation networks and software technologies. He has project experiences with the development and validation of industrial test solutions using TTCN in the telecom and automotive surface area e.g. for ATM, B-ISDN, PNNI, VoIP/Sigtran, CCM, MOST, SIP+SDP and IMS, SIP/ISUP interoperability, SIP/ISDN interworking, IoT, oneM2M service layer.

Internet of Things (IoT) opens new opportunities for people and businesses to simplify operations, gain insight, and deliver services. At the same time, however, it poses great challenges for society and industry, especially for the quality of products. IoT solutions are generally characterized past openness, distribution, dynamics, scaling, and a long service life. IoT devices and services should live tested with a focus on conformance, interoperability, robustness and security. In the talk solution approaches are presented, which supports an effective test of these quality features past a high degree of test automation over all test phases.
