• Learn about the key standards emerging as candidates for the Internet of Things
• Understand the key differences and similarities between Data Distribution Service (DDS) and Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT)Abstract:The commoditization of network connectivity is enabling the realization of the Internet of Things – a system in which data flows seamlessly, at Internet Scale, between network-connected devices, mobile devices, industrial and information systems.Besides network connectivity, a key enabler for the Internet of Things is a standard for interoperable data sharing.  Without it, there is no open data sharing and as a result no Internet of Things.Recently different standards-based messaging and data sharing technologies, such as Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP), Data Distribution Service (DDS) and Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT), have been proposed as "The Standard" for "The Internet of Things".This webcast will focus on the technologies that are receiving most of the attention, namely DDS and MQTT.  After introducing DDS and MQTT, we will compare and contrast them trying to crisply understand how they differ and where they fit into the Internet of Things ecosystem.The webcast will last approximately one hour.Webcast Presenter:Angelo Corsaro, Ph.D. is OpenSplice DDS Chief Technology Officer (CTO) at PrismTech. As CTO, Angelo directs the technology strategy, planning, evolution, and evangelism. Angelo leads the strategic standardization at the Object Management Group (OMG), where he co-chairs the Data Distribution Service (DDS) Special Interest Group. Angelo is a widely known and cited expert in the field of real-time and distributed systems, middleware, and software patterns, has authored several international standards and enjoys over 10+ years of experience in technology management and design of high performance mission- and business-critical distributed systems. Angelo received a Ph.D. and a M.S. in Computer Science from the Washington University in St. Louis, and a Laurea Magna cum Laude in Computer Engineering from the University of Catania, Italy.Tags: Internet of Things, IoT, Message Queue Telemetry Transport, MQTT, AMQP, Advanced Message Queuing Protocol, OpenSplice, DDS, middleware, Data Distribution Service, messaging, data sharing

Register at: http://www.prismtech.com/events/opensplice-user-group-meeting-europe-2013PrismTech, a global leader in standards-based, performance-critical middleware, today announced the OpenSplice User Group Meeting Europe 2013.The OpenSplice User Group Meeting Europe will be held in Berlin, Germany on June 18, 2013 in collaboration with the Object Management Group (OMG) Data Distribution Service the Intelligent Systems Backbone and Technical Meeting.This years OpenSplice User Group Meeting Europe will feature major new product announcements which will be of significant interest to our users and potential users alike.The OpenSplice User Group Meeting Europe is free to attend and is intended for anybody who is interested in OpenSplice and DDS.

Join us on June 18 and 19 2013 for an in-depth briefing about the Data Distribution Service (DDS) standard, to learn how this robust, real-time communication architecture supports systems embedded in an unprecedented range of intelligent devices. Whether you're an existing DDS user, or evaluating DDS for your next real-time or mission-critical application, you'll gain useful insights into this self-configuring, high-performance middleware and its growing ecosystem of supporting products. The program includes:
* Real-world case studies of how DDS is being used today in demanding applications as diverse as automotive systems, financial trading, industrial control, robotics, simulation and aerospace.
* A short tutorial on DDS's robust, real-time, self-configuring architecture, showing how it has been designed from the outset to operate in mission-critical environments, including the new generation of Intelligent Systems applications.
* A live demonstration of DDS product interoperability by multiple DDS vendors, illustrating how different manufacturers' independently-developed DDS products work together "out of the box" to deliver robust, real-time communication across multiple network infrastructures.
* Presentations on DDS tooling, underlining the breadth of support available for DDS developers using diverse programming languages & deployment platforms.
* An extended, in-depth tutorial from leading DDS experts explaining how to fully exploit the standard's unique communication capabilities.
