New International Standard on the Internet of Things
… The new standard is ISO/IEC 30141, Internet of Things (IoT) – Reference architecture, and it sets out to provide an internationally standardized IoT Reference Architecture using a common vocabulary, reusable designs and industry best practice.
… Writing on the International Standards Organization blog, Dr François Coallier, Chair of the joint technical committee of ISO and the International Technical Commission (IEC) that developed the standard, notes the need for a standard to reflect the fact that the IoT is growing exponentially across a range of sectors, stating: “So we saw a need for a reference architecture to maximize the benefits and reduce the risks… this standard will provide the reference architecture to apply them to IoT systems.”
