Interop Lab

Interoperability is a term that will become much more common place as customers discover that more and more of the networked products they purchase are not compatible. Large company’s that own divisions who build various networked products cannot seem to even be compatible amongst their sister products much less be compatible with a competitors goods.

This will change. Companies must have interoperability testing between their own products as well as making sure they are compatible with the networked products of their competitors.

How will this be accomplished?

It would be interesting for SOET to take this on as a start-up project. SOET could provide the space, equipment, develop the testing protocols and even provide interns to perform some of the testing functions. Naturally, the lab would charge a fee for the testing. Any ideas?
