IEEE Academy on Internet of Things (IoT) Communication Standards
Communication technology is an essential part of the Internet of Things (IoT) as it allows IoT devices to be connected to each other. Low power wide area network (LPWAN) is a promising communication standard solution for long range and low power IoT and machine to machine (M2M) communications. IoT service layer platform provides a set of common functions for IoT applications and integrates various communication technologies. In order to provide interoperable IoT solutions to the market, such communications and platforms are integrated based on the global standard solution, e.g., 3GPP 5G and oneM2M. 3GPP 5G technologies serve as a key enabler for IoT applications that need high mobility, low latency, and reliability. oneM2M interworks with 3GPP IoT features for the better adoption by the devices and applications. This learning path covers the basic principles of communication technology and practical usage of standardized communication.

He is currently the Associate EiC of IEEE Transactions on Big Data and the EiC of IEEE Blockchain Technical Briefs. He is an IEEE Fellow for his contributions to IoT enabling technologies (2017).
Technical Editors
Reza Malekian
Reza Malekian is Professor of Computer Science at Malmö University, Sweden and an Extraordinary Professor in the Department of Electrical, Electronic, and Computer Engineering at University of Pretoria, South Africa, where he previously led the Advanced Sensor Networks research group and received the Exceptional Young Researcher’s award from Vice-Chancellor. His research focuses on the Internet of Things, connectivity, and sensor networks. He is registered as a chartered engineer (CEng) with the Engineering Council of UK, a senior member of the IEEE, a senior member of the ACM, and a Fellow of the British Computer Society, The Chartered Institute for IT. Dr. Malekian has been serving as an Associate Editor for IEEE Transaction on Intelligent Transportation Systems, and IEEE Internet of Things Journal (2016-2020) and has been involved in the organizing committee of the relevant IoT conferences including General co-Chair of IEEE 5G Summit Pretoria, TPC co-Chair of the IEEE International Conference on Industrial Internet (ICII) and IEEE Wireless Africa Conference, invited speaker co-Chair of the IEEE International Conference on Computing, Networking and Communications (ICNC) and Best Paper Award Committee of the International Conference on Neural Computing for Advanced Applications.
JaeSeung Song
JaeSeung Song is an associate professor, leading the Software Engineering and Security group (SESlab) in the Computer and Information Security Department at Sejong University. He received a PhD at Imperial College London in the Department of Computing, United Kingdom. He holds BS and MS in Computer Science from Sogang University. He holds the position of oneM2M Technical Plenary Vice and a director on IoT platforms at KICS. Prior to his current position, he worked for NEC Europe Ltd. between 2012 and 2013 as a leading standard senior researcher. At that time, he actively participated in IoT related R&D projects such as the Building as a Service (BaaS) FP 7 project and IoT/M2M standardizations (i.e., ETSI TC M2M and oneM2M). From 2002 to 2008, he worked for LG Electronics as a senior researcher leading a 3GPP SA standard team. He occupied leadership positions in 3GPP and oneM2M standard groups as a rapporteur and active contributor.
He is the co-author and co-inventor of over 100 international publications, conference papers and patent applications. His research interests span the areas of software engineering, networked systems and security, with focus on the design and engineering of reliable IoT/M2M platforms, particularly in the context of semantic IoT data interoperability, secure software patch techniques and data analytics using machine learning. He also holds leadership roles (series editor and TPC co-chair) in several journals and conferences such as an associate editor of IEEE IoT journal, IoT series editor of IEEE Communications Standards Magazine and TPC Co-Chair of IEEE Conference on Standards for Communications and Networking.
