MORE ENGINES CERTIFIED VIA SAE'S CERTIFIED POWER PROGRAM
More than 300 engines have now been certified and are
included in SAE's Certified Power Database. The Certified
Power Program gives the mobility industry and public a fair,
impartial and accurate way to measure and report engine
horsepower and torque. Power and torque certification
provide a means for a manufacturer to assure a customer that
the engine they purchase delivers the advertised performance.

SAE AND IEEE JOIN FORCES TO EXPLORE POTENTIAL INTERNET OF THINGS STANDARDS
(Adapted from an article in Automotive Engineering by
Lindsay Brooke)
SAE International and IEEE (Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers) are jointly exploring a standards
framework related to the rapidly emerging Internet of Things
(IoT)-the billions of interconnected "smart" devices that
enhance our daily lives and are already impacting vehicle
development, manufacturing, the customer experience, and
technology innovation.
The organizations held a joint workshop on May 7 at SAE's Troy,
Michigan office, to discuss IEEE P2413, a standard currently
under development that is aimed at providing a robust
architectural framework and multi-stakeholder platform for the
IoT. About 150 engineers from the mobility and other industries
attended the workshop. Topics included overviews of IEEE's
IoT initiative and relevant SAE projects. Legal/liability aspects
of the IoT were covered by Bryant Walker Smith, Assistant
Professor at the University of South Carolina Law School, who
spoke via WebEx.
Many engineers view the absence of IoT standards as a hurdle
for achieving interoperability and finding technical solutions
for critical global issues such as cybersecurity. IEEE began its
IoT activities in 2012 and formed a working group for the IEEE
P2413 project in 2014. They looked to SAE for the technical
depth of its membership in the automotive, aerospace, and
commercial vehicle sectors.
The workshop was "the first of many steps to actively
engage the automotive industry in developing applicable
IoT requirements and standards," said Jack Pokrzywa, SAE's
Director of Ground Vehicle Standards.
He said the mobility industry "cannot afford to miss the
opportunity to get on board quickly and work with other
sectors toward common solutions" aimed at increasing
vehicle safety and reliability, improving the user experience,

About this Workshop:

SAE International

The IoT is transforming the vehicle into a powerful hub, enabling
developers, manufacturers and service providers to offer valueadded services, and effectively changing their relationship with
customers. Connected services strengthen the vehicle manufacturers'
relationships with their customers and enhance brand loyalty - all
while developing new and ongoing revenue streams throughout the
life of the vehicle. Manufacturers can monitor customers' experiences
in real-time and on the road, enhance product quality, and investigate
potential post-sale opportunities. It is clear that a connected car
becomes a component of the new ecosystem that spans across
many vertical applications that in the past experienced little to
no interaction. Armed with the power of IoT, vehicle manufacturers
are on the leading edge of evolving user experiences and new
business models based on IoT services.
