Re: Poll on teleconferences

Hi,

The 6PM GMT group would work for me (I'm currently based at GMT-8), 
although I am slightly concerned with the two-group approach. Will we 
have sufficient amount of members joining both calls so that the ideas 
get disseminated across the groups?

For introduction, my name is Ari Keränen, and I'm a senior researcher at 
Ericsson Research. I'm working on various Internet of Things topics, 
mostly around IP layer and focusing on communication of constrained 
devices. I'm also active at the IETF, where I chair one working group 
and contribute to various IoT working groups.

Web of things fits well to the Ericsson Networked Society vision and we 
have already a long history of working with web technologies for IoT. 
I'm personally interested in how we can extend these mechanisms to the 
most constrained devices. Also, security mechanisms for these devices 
has been high on my agenda recently.

I'm looking forward to discussing with you all what we can achieve with 
IoT and web technologies working together.


Cheers,
Ari
