Jesus,
in the project proposal we say that ZigBee covers many application
domains very useful for AAL related project, but we don't mean that
ZigBee must be the reference technology for AAL applications.
We are aware that there are many competing solutions, IP6LowPan,
Wireless HART, or UPnP, DPWS ....
With respect to the AALOA mission, this project can be considered one of
the many building blocks that may be integrated in a reference platform
for AAL.
It is an outcome of the PERSONA project, but it is released without the
"peculiarities" of the PERSONA project, so that it is a generic solution
that can be integrated in the AAL/AmI platform you like.
I didn't understand your last example. In theory ZigBee networks can
contains 65.000 nodes, enough for the smart environments we are
addressing, but I guess you was thinking to a different use case.
The scalability issues in my mind are that ones related to the remote
management of thousand of devices; a control center that has to remotely
manage many smart home installations, the remote upgrade of the
software/firmware installed in such environments, and so on ... but
IMO the problems are not on the ZigBee side.

Dear all,
My vote is positive ... however, it is not clear the strategy for the
AAL domain being the driver for the evolution of Zigbee out from a
ZigBee for Health Care profile (which is a very limited area in the
scope of this technology). This combined with the current activity in
this technology entails a high risk for the survival.
Just to mention an additional implementation being integrated in
device abstraction activities running in OSAmI project; the (paralell)
R&D activities of the team involved in this technology are moving in
the direction of overcoming the current limitations in the number of
nodes in the context of real deployment scenarios (some already in
operation) which are difficult to find in the AAL domain.
Best regards,

Asunto: [aaloa promoters] [Vote] Call for Vote on a project
proposal: ZigBee 4 OSGI
Dear Governing Board of AALOA, and Promoters,
I would like to submit to your attention the attached project proposal
concerning the ZigBee networks integration with the OSGi platform.
I ask you to consider it for becoming an AALOA Project and to allocate
the needed resources for its software development.
As promoter of this proposal and member of the Governing Board I will
abstain from voting on this issue.
I remember to the promoters that even if they haven't a binding vote,
their comments are very welcome.
Kind regards,
Francesco.
