The document discusses the benefits of Internet of Things (IoT) technology for the Muslim world. It describes how connecting physical assets through sensors can help monitor things like health, transportation, and resource usage. The data collected from these connected devices and sensors can provide insights and optimization opportunities. New business models are emerging around monetizing sensor data through "Sensing as a Service" where data is licensed to applications and organizations. The document advocates for building an IoT ecosystem in Malaysia as a testbed for connecting infrastructure and developing smart city applications.

Compete
Boundaries
Cut across and transcend traditional product boundaries. !
5. The changing nature of products is also disrupting value chains,
forcing companies to rethink and retool nearly everything they do
internally.
6. Poses A New Set of Strategic Choices
How value is created and captured?
How the amount of new (and sensitive) data
is utilized and managed?
How relationships with traditional business
partners such as channels are redefined?
What roles companies should play as
industry boundaries are expanded?
7. What makes smart, connected products fundamentally
different is not the Internet, but the changing nature of the
“things” and business.
8. The Need to Connect Assets/Objects/Things
Monitoring of Assets – Typical Everyday
I need to
maintain the
quality of my
goods.
Who is the
intruder?
Can I reduce
my electricity
bill?
Am I healthy?
When is my
next bus?
Where can I
park?
Questions
What IF we can connect ALL these assets and get the answers to ALL these questions?
10. Connectivity Serves Dual Purpose
It allows information to be exchanged between
the product and its operating environment, its
maker, its users, and other products and
systems.
Connectivity enables some functions of the
product to exist outside the physical device, in
what is known as the product cloud.
11. What Can Smart, Connected Things Do?

12. Reducing over-engineering
Monitoring – Operations & Usage
Market
segmentation
After-sale service
The product’s condition
The external environment
13. Control - Personalization
“if pressure gets too high, shut off the valve”
“when traffic queue reaches a certain level,
turn the traffic lights red or green”
“when there is no people or cars, turn the
overhead lighting on or off”)
14. Optimization – Enhance Performance
Smart, connected products can apply algorithms
and analytics to in-use or historical data to
dramatically improve output, utilization, and efficiency.
Real-time monitoring data on product condition and product control
capability enables firms to optimize service by performing preventative
maintenance when failure is imminent and accomplishing repairs
remotely, thereby reducing product downtime and the
need to dispatch repair personnel
Even when on-site repair is required, advance
information about what is broken, what parts are needed,
and how to accomplish the fix reduces service costs and
improves first-time fix rates.

29. Sensor Classification Scheme Based on Ownership
All personal items, such as mobile phones,
wrist watches, spectacles, laptops, soft
drinks, food items and household items,
such as televisions, cameras, microwaves,
washing machines, etc
Private business
organization has the
right to take the
decision whether to
publish the sensors
attached to those items
to the cloud or not.
Public infrastructure
such as bridges, roads,
parks, etc. All the
sensors deployed by the
government will be
published in the cloud
depending on
government policies.
Business entities who
deploy and manage
sensors by themselves by
keeping ownership. They
earn by publishing the
sensors and sensor data
they own through sensor
publishers.

33. IoT commercial sensors on lamp posts across the city.
(Example)
Gathering temperature, light, pressure, humidity and pollution.
One scenario could be as such:
• The city would pay for access to the light
sensors in order to decide when to turn on and
off the street lights
• A university may want access to the pollution
information for research purposes for a limited
period
• The weather department would want the
temperature and pressure data
• The street town council center would want
the temperature and humidity data for planning
during rough weather
44. NoiseTube – Crowdsourcing of Pollution Data Using
Smartphones. What Motivates?
• Citizens and Communities concerned with noise
• Measure your daily sound exposure in dB(A) with
your mobile phone
• Tag noisy sources to inform the community about
them
• Visualize your measurements on a map and
contribute to the creation of collective, city-wide
noise maps
• Compare your experience with that of others
• Local governments / city planners
• Improve decision-making by understanding local and
global noise pollution in your city using maps and
statistics
• Get immediate feedback and opinions from citizens
• Give immediate feedback to citizens
• Researchers
• Get access to and analyze (anonymized) collective
noise data
• Find out what is important in soundscape perception
• Developers
• Extend our mobile app in whichever way you see fit
• Use our environmental sensor web API to do your
own web mashups
