The Internet of Things, What’s Next?
Telephone Number and Address Management - After conducting research with stakeholders, Ofcom have concluded that this will not be a barrier to the development of the IoT. IoT services are most likely to use bespoke addressing systems that are able to generate billions of addresses. The much more scalable version of Internet Protocol, known as IPv6 is currently in the process of being adopted this will offer a massively increased range of addresses. Developments are occurring on a daily basis and it is an exciting time to be part of this industry. In order to ensure that this decade sees the growth that has been predicted, Ofcom must concentrate on developing data privacy regulation and controlling network security. A failure to find solutions could result in detrimental consequences for both consumers and retailers and will not allow the IoT to fulfil its anticipated potential.

ICANN 52: Global Domains Division (GDD) Sessions
ICANN Global Domains Division (GDD) Sessions at ICANN 52: Singapore (8-12 February 2015)--(Listed in chronological order; source: ICANN; descriptions provided by ICANN)--
Global Domains Division Update
Date/Time: Monday, 9 February 2015 – 12:15 to 13:30 SGT
The Global Domains Division (GDD) regularly apprises the community on the status of the New gTLDProgram and provides a high-level update on related key items/issues.
New gTLD Program: Status, Reviews and Next Round
Date/Time: Monday, 9 February 2015 – 15:30 to 16:30 SGT
The 2012 round of the New gTLD Program is well underway and the next application round is on the horizon. In this session, we will discuss ICANN's plans for moving the current gTLD round forward as expeditiously as possible, and the impact to current applicants. We'll also provide an update on the New gTLD Program Reviews, a series of both independent and internal reviews of the Program. Find out why and learn how you can get involved in the New gTLD Program.
Universal Acceptance
Date/Time: Monday, 9 February 2015 – 17:00 to 18:15 SGT Time Conversion - 4 am Monday EST (US)
Overview:
Many of the services and applications Internet users rely on do not accept new top-level domains,* Internationalized Domain Names or Internationalized email addresses. The issue poses a risk to the public perception of ICANN's New gTLD and IDN Programs. This session is intended to solicit community interest in participating in ICANN's Universal Acceptance Initiative, discuss ICANN's outreach plans and gather new ideas for tackling the issue.
ICANN's IDN Program team will discuss the overall progress of the program, giving details of the different projects the IDN program is undertaking. This includes the community-based efforts to develop rules to validate and determine variants of top-level domains in different scripts. They will share the stage with community members who are making the decisions about characters in a particular script to develop these “Label Generation Rules” for the Internet's Root Zone. These community representatives will share the challenges associated with the work and report on the progress.
