Abstract:
‘Interoperability’ means the ability for two different and independent information and communication technology (ICT) systems to exchange information and use that information. Whether or to what extent ICT interoperability needs to be regulated vis-a-vis the new technological challenges, poses a compelling question for the law and policy makers. Given this overarching question, this study first attempts to evaluate the issue from a multidisciplinary legal viewpoint and secondly examines the architectural settings of cloud computing and the Internet of Things (IoT). It is concluded that a layered regulatory model can respond to the ICT interdependent layers, as peculiarities of both the cloud and the IoT architectures are all-encompassed by such a model. Finally, it is proposed this model can be transposed into the EU law, and to that end, it is suggested that the model replace the core measures of the electronic communications regulatory framework, along with a set of principles i.e. transparency, fairness, accountability and corresponding remedies.
