such as mobile and real-time technologies, the Internet of things, big data analytics, and social media, have come to the fore in recent years,

New technologies including mobile and real-time technologies the Internet of things, big data analytics, and social media clearly illustrate the enormous impact of IT on society in terms of enabling competitiveness and welfare (vom Brocke, Debortoli, Muâ ller, & Reuter, 2014).

The fourth industrial revolution is enabled by the introduction of the Internet of things and Services into the manufacturing environment.

Third, the new technologies, like Internet of things, require that manufacturing broaden its perspective: from the factory floor towards the entire life cycle of a product or service.

The Iop includes e-mail, facebook, twitter, forums, Linkedin, etc. •The Internet of things (Iot: all physical objects connected to the network.

The Iot includes all things that have a unique id and a presence in an internet-like structure.

Note that the Ioc, the Iop, the Iot, and the Iol partially overlap. For example, a place name on a webpage or the location from which a tweet was sent.

3 Developing Urban Iot Platforms At present, some works have been reported of practical implementations in order to develop Iot platforms inspired by the Ubiquitous Sensor Networks concept from the

ITU-T USN Standardization Group 21. Some research teams have initiated already activities in this line, but there are currently very few references to them in the literature

ITU€ s USN concept envisions a â€oetechnological framework for ambient sensor networks not as simple sets of interconnected networks but as intelligent information infrastruc

This capability will allow a seamless link between Iot and Ios, as discussed in Section 2

3. 2 USN Architecture for Urban Iot Platforms While the new wave of Next Generation Iot platforms are expected to be defined by

initiatives and projects like Iot-A 23, the IERC cluster 24 or the emerging PPP

Iot Core Platform Working group discussion 25, multiple different approaches for First Generation Iot-platforms are currently being implemented.

In essence, many of them are realizations of the described ITU-T†s model. For reference on the current
