IRVING, TEXAS—28 July 2005—Clasma Events Inc. announced today that
OASIS (the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information
Standards) will develop and host a standards track for the BuilConn
Europe and M2M Expo and Conference Europe being held 8-10 November
2005, at the Amsterdam RAI.
The OASIS standards track is provided in response to the significant
trend of increasing use on IT standards by the intelligent buildings
industry. Originally established at the inaugural BuilConn, the OASIS
oBIX (Open Building Information Xchange) Technical Committee is among
several industry initiatives that are developing standards for XML and
Web services, technologies critical to the advancement of the
buildings industry.
Per the arrangement, OASIS will lend its expertise to the two events
by developing a one-day track dedicated to the development of
standards for enabling technologies such as XML and Web services. The
presentations will approach the subject from a technology and business
development point of view.
“Clasma Events is very pleased that OASIS will be a major contributor
to what are now established events for the buildings and M2M
industries,” Anto Budiardjo, BuilConn Europe and M2M Expo and
Conference organizer, said. “As the BuilConn and M2M events become
more IT-centric, the expertise offered by OASIS will become invaluable
in the advancement of the industries.”
“More and more we’re seeing buildings and smart devices becoming an
integral part of the information architecture within today’s
enterprises,” Patrick Ganon, OASIS president and CEO, said. “The use
of standards promotes industry growth, and we’re pleased to be
advancing interoperability through collaboration and consensus.”
