OWF2013 INTERNET OF THINGS
1 like985 views
The document discusses open source software and communities. It notes that doing business with open source means earning a living by building a codebase that is freely available rather than selling proprietary code. It then provides examples of successful open source projects like Arduino and Asterisk that benefited from open business models and thriving developer communities. The document advocates adopting practices like sharing code openly, facilitating knowledge sharing, and contributing to leverage the network effects of open source.
OWF2013 INTERNET OF THINGS
- 1. Doing business o n Open Source is not selling a code that we did not pay but earn his life around a code that is not sold.
- 2. Oh my god, they stole my code! Stephane Ribas (Inria, D2T) Didiez Donsez (LIG) for OWF 2013

- 4. IOT - What is it? Toc ! Toc ! Toc !
- 5. The Internet of Things “one vision” Mark Weiser 1991 The most profound technologies are those that disappear. They weave themselves into the fabric of everyday life until they are indistinguishable from it → Commodity

- 25. Oh my god, they stole my code!
- 26. Are you sure mafalda? .Great human adventure .Be part of an important project for society .Produce a suite of codes efficient & usable (from research lab to industrials) .We respected the Open Technologies / Open Sciences concepts .Increased knowledges & contacts .Team Brand (Work & skills recognized in our domain) .Many new collaborations ! (on other projects)
- 27. I was going to forget this point... ICAT killed me ;-) ICAT? Inflexible & Complex Administrative Tasks
- 28. And today? The code is still alive & in a public forge (OW2) We continue committing new code for... ... the pleasure of unknown eco-systems
- 29. Are you okay?
- 30. Open Hardware
- 34. Open Hardware eco system It produces new communities Arduino, Linaros, RaspBerry pi, Diydrones, ADA FRUITS... 13 companies 50 millions of dollars. Predictions → 1 billion of dollars in 2015.
- 35. What are the roles of scientists in this success? Arduino founders are working in an university in Sweden, Italy, etc. Linaros founders were PhD students... 3D printer - RepRap was born in an university... etc.
- 37. Open Technologies? Impact for arduino? Arduino designs & codes are OPEN … really open. Leverage effect? Facilitate project dissemination world wide Increased widely Arduino usage by a large audience Facilitated the creation of a large ecosystem.
- 38. Eco System? Co- creation of values? In 2012, Arduino made... 1 million of dollars based on its 100% open design hardware & software catalog.
- 39. Arduino Future? Arduino YUN Just simply amazing !
- 40. Telephony monopoly Mark Spencer founded Digium in 1999. His idea was to spread alternative solutions at very low cost on the closed PBX market. He decided to create and open its hardware designs & codes... Note that Mark decided at a point to redesign the Asterisk user interface to make it very friendly so any IT people can install their own phone system.
- 41. Results? It covers full spectrum of hardware equipments & a wide base of users. Asterisk is a big OSS project (926.000 lines) and one of most active... 8,000 active developers. Asterisk forums > 35,000 topics > 120,000 posts. Asterisk solutions are supported in over 170 countries. Asterisk as became a standard for open source PBX with a large community & eco-system
- 42. Reasons of the Digium success? OSS is particularly relevant in areas of monopoly Asterik provides an answer to a widely shared problem. Good governance & relevant choices. User friendly free software/hardware project Support & dedicated time to facilitate community management.
- 43. Eclipse IDE eco system
- 44. Control vs Neutrality? A long time ago... IBM fostered the creation of a strong dynamic eco system (huge network of companies and 10,000 daily downloads today) Few years ago, IBM's tend to control more & more the ecosystem. External contributors felt like if they were working for IBM and not for Eclipse. The stagnation of the community has pushed the Eclipse Foundation to divorce & restore some neutrality in the eyes of community members.
- 46. Is there any simple model I could use for my own IOT project?
- 47. Trust
- 48. Answer a shared need
- 49. Accept to share
- 50. Accept to dilute the control
- 51. Publish to increase the project development
- 54. Facilitate the knowledge flow flowledge :-)
- 55. Drive a ferrari or own a bicycle?
- 56. Use/Produce the open source leverage effect
- 57. Okay but when I wake up in the morning what shall I do?
- 58. Trust → give before taking (give contributions before receiving from the others)
- 59. Answer a (shared) need → identify community, project & people that are acting in areas related to your topics, identify the leaders, approach & collaborate
- 60. Accept to share → open (really) your project contents
- 61. Accept to dilute the control → delegate tasks & responsibilities → co-create value with competitors “on non-strategic applications”
- 62. Publish code, design... to increase the project development → release early & often → user friendly → low barrier entry
- 63. Advertize your existence → Submit articles in scientist magazines, webzines, blogs, conferences, tweets...
- 64. Positive community network → Community management → Momentum → Recognition → Interests
- 65. Facilitate the flowledge → publish what I learned & ask for what I don't know! → Ask & answer questions from the others
- 66. Drive a ferrari or own a bicycle? → Don't loose your time & your money in trying to sell code
- 67. Use/Produce the open source leverage effect → contribute → re-contribute → take advantage
- 68. OH NO! I don't want to contribute before THEY commit first!
- 70. A comet in Open Source conferences • A humble (free) conference that attracts insiders, opinion makers & mainstream users • A forum where people meet, talk, share • Partners? major Open Source actors • The speakers? Open Source leaders • 2013 topics? Open Education, Flow Computing, Open Art, Open Source Journalism & Open Intelligence, Eco- Systems , Eco- Trust, Eco- Nomy
