• Create a proposal for device classifications for discussion. richard.lam Rick Steurer

Progress update 2025/2/18

Started. Rick, Michael, Brandon, and Richard met to discuss how devices should be characterized. The sub-team recommends individual attributes, rather than classifications. Decision made to use attributes. Richard to schedule sub-team meeting.

Work on a minimum viable product

• matt.casperson to look at the variances between the following to better understand if there are material differences/considerations:
• system d containerization vs. lxc containerization
• zeromq vs. dbus

2025/5/6

See:

LxD & SystemD Security Considerations

https://lf-energy.atlassian.net/wiki/x/SgBIEQ

• Norm Mcentire & Brandon Thayer to research ZeroMQ & DBUS as potential message bus options. Report back for discussion and decision during 2025/5/6 meeting

2025/5/6

• Brandon Thayer to research systemd permissions;
• Bryan Green to research lxc permissions

Goal: To propose a set of reasonable high-level GEISA permissions which can be mapped to different containerization engines

2025/5/20

Bryan – work is in progress. To discuss June 17th. Brandon has posted materials on Github.

• Matt Gillmore and Will Bell to propose which LWM2M objects make the most sense to use for GEISA, and where we need to extend them

2025/5/6

• Brandon Thayer & Rick Steurer (potentially with assistance from Norm Mcentire to provide a side-by-side comparison between ZeroMQ and RabbitMQ

Selection Criteria:

• Library Size

• Availability of Implementations (Multiple sources; Open Source; Commercial)

• Ease of Implementation

• Human Readable

• Consistency / Limiting the number of technologies

2025/5/6

• Craig to provide a proposed waveform frame definition for further review

• Craig, Will Bell, and Vlad Pambucol to provide a proposal on normalized measurement values to be exposed via the message bus API

• Vlad Pambucol to provide a standardized list of events that the execution environment should be to inform applications about

Metered Quantities

Meter Event List

• Michael Garrison Stuber Document container “format” proposal

2025/5/23

• Research on Message format (e.g. Protobuf, MessagePak, etc.) Rick Steurer

2025/5/20

To discuss either at 6/3 meeting or face-to-face

• Michael Garrison Stuber Document format formal specification
