How to Make Smart Cities Stay Smart with Open Source Projects
summary
The talk explains the Civil Infrastructure Platform (CIP) initiative for building long-lived, secure Linux-based systems for critical urban infrastructure (power plants, radar, traffic lights, communications, weather). It describes the problem of bespoke, duplicated software development for such systems and proposes using open-source foundations and a base-layer reference implementation to encourage reuse, set de facto standards, and feed industrial requirements back into upstream projects.
