Vertical solutions will not support a complex ecosystem

!   Few consumers choose a single brand for every product !   High licensing fees limit deployment !   Proprietary software drives increased development costs −  (while reducing flexibility and limiting future use cases)

!   Many open frameworks require high hardware BOM © 2013 Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. All rights reserved.

13

Needed: an open, widely available connectivity framework

?

!   Enables devices to communicate with −  Easy discovery −  Easy interoperability −  Enables cloud & proximal connectivity −  Across device types, OEMs, HW, OS

!   Addresses widest range of devices −  Little processing & memory requirements −  Distributed under open source license

!   Forward-compatible −  Open source allows rapid evolution −  Ability to contribute to the software roadmap


14

Today’s reality: one app per device or brand

!   Apps are an excellent solution for enabling the consumer-facing IoE −  Rich device interaction beyond the limitations of physical UI −  Expanded control with lower bill of materials −  Easier user experience −  Higher customer satisfaction/lower support cost


15

Horizontal solutions and app ecosystems drive demand for the latest hardware …as the mobile handset ecosystem has demonstrated

18

Open communication for the Internet of Everything !   Requires interoperability across device types, brands, OS and verticals

(and the same protocols have to work everywhere for the ecosystem to thrive)

Discover Nearby devices and apps

Manage Ad-hoc networks and routing

Adapt As devices and apps come and go

Interoperate Across disparate OS and

bearers


19

AllJoyn framework benefits Fast track to full participation in the Internet of Everything

!   Accelerate development !   Reduce time to production for leading-edge features !   Improve usability and enhance UX without changing physical design or

increasing BOM !   Ensure compatibility with a wide range of apps and devices

−  Cross-platform compatibility −  Open framework maximizes discoverability now and in the future

AllJoyn Software Framework

AllJoyn Thin Client AllJoyn Core

AllJoyn Services

AllJoyn framework makes peer-to-peer easy A comprehensive software communication framework

AllJoyn Core Services •  Interoperable, cross-platform

building blocks for common IoE functionality

•  Audio streaming, onboarding, control, notifications etc.

AllJoyn Core •  Fundamental building blocks •  Discovery, connectivity, security •  Language bindings, interoperability •  Dynamic network intelligence

AllJoyn Thin Client

•  Supports ultra low memory embedded IoE devices

•  Common AllJoyn wire protocol

•  Lean feature set


21

AllJoyn core services address fundamental use cases

!   AllJoyn software development framework extended with new core services −  Onboarding −  Notifications −  Control −  Audio streaming

!   Very simple by design and addresses near-universal requirements for users to interact with their nearby things

!   Will be upstreamed into AllJoyn open source project by Q3 2013


22

Uniquely positioned to unlock the Internet of Everything Features Benefits

•  Open source, flexible architecture Multi-language, multi-platform, forward-compatible

•  Not locked down to a specific platform Interoperable across platforms, leading OS, and embedded systems. Can be ported on chipsets from any vendor

•  Works across verticals Fits on high end smart devices running HLOS as well as embedded devices running an RTOS with limited memory footprints and low end MCUs. Across connected home, automotive, workplace, classroom, hospitals, etc.

•  Licensed under open source license Widely recognized open source license for development of proprietary services with no requirement to contribute back

•  Wireless-optimized, bearer-agnostic Enables development of proximal p2p interactions across devices regardless of how they are connected


23

Help Shape the Future of the AllJoyn Alliance Be among the first to reap the benefits of a horizontal ecosystem

!   Participate in future meetings −  Join like-minded companies to discuss how AllJoyn & horizontal interoperability improves

connected experiences −  Discuss formation of AllJoyn Alliance −  Influence the evolution of AllJoyn features
