The document discusses Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity technologies. It describes the key requirements for IoT including long device lifespans, low power needs, and support for diverse operating systems. IEEE 802.15.4 standards including 6LoWPAN, Thread and ZigBee are examined as they provide robust, low-power connectivity solutions for IoT. The standards are compared in terms of frequency range, data rates, and use cases. Software stacks built on IEEE 802.15.4 such as 6LoWPAN, Thread and ZigBee are also summarized.
The document discusses RTI and its Data Distribution Service (DDS) middleware. DDS provides publish-subscribe communication that is decentralized, scalable, and supports real-time and mission-critical systems. It addresses challenges with traditional approaches that are point-to-point and have single points of failure. DDS is used widely in industries such as defense, automotive, and medical. The document also covers open architecture requirements and how DDS supports security features to address cyber threats.

The Ice moon Enceladus of planet Saturn holds vast amounts of liquid water beneath its solid ice shell which possibly contain simple extraterrestrial life. For further examination an intended space mission by Germany's national space program aims to take probes from subsurface water using an autonomous ice probe. In order to navigate to a designated goal position, this probe must be able to localize itself within the ice. This localization is achieved by utilizing a distributed network of autonomous pinger units (APUs) which serve as external reference for the ice probe. The talk focusses on the technical details and communication and control mechanisms for this network.

It is the IoT’s industrial applications, or the Industrial Internet”, which may ultimately dwarf the consumer side in potential business and socioeconomic impacts. The Industrial Internet will transform many industries, including manufacturing, oil and gas, agriculture, mining, transportation and healthcare. Collectively, these account for nearly two-thirds of the world economy. As society evolves towards an integrated digital-human workforce, the Industrial Internet will redefine the new types of new jobs to be created, and will reshape the very nature of work. Given the greater significance, this presentation focuses exclusively on the Industrial Internet.
Winning with the Industrial Internet of Things: How to accelerate the journey...accenture
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) will bring new economic growth, reinventing sectors that account for almost two-thirds of world output. The raw technical conditions for the widespread adoption of the IIoT are highly favorable. Today, the IIoT is helping to improve productivity, reduce operating costs and enhance worker safety. As the world struggles to emerge from a phase of weak productivity growth, fragile employment and pockets of inadequate demand, the IIoT offers a chance to redefine many sectors and accelerate economic and employment growth.

NEXCOM panel PCs replaced PLCs in controlling a steel mill's heat treatment furnace, allowing real-time monitoring and control. The PLC system only stored data onsite and caused delays when issues arose. The NEXCOM solution transmits furnace temperature, gas, and valve data to an office in real-time, enabling proactive issue identification and process optimization. Modernizing with NEXCOM panel PCs streamlined the system architecture for integrated control and HMI functions across vendors.
The document discusses the potential for a new wave of productivity gains and economic growth through the convergence of advanced computing, analytics, and connectivity enabled by the Internet with the global industrial system. This convergence is called the "Industrial Internet". It could boost annual productivity growth and raise average incomes significantly over the next 20 years. Key elements include intelligent machines enabled by sensors and controls, advanced analytics using real-time data and predictive algorithms, and connecting people at work. Even modest efficiency gains of 1% across major industries like aviation, power, healthcare, rail and oil and gas could yield huge economic benefits totaling tens or hundreds of billions of dollars. The Industrial Internet has the potential to benefit both developed and developing economies worldwide.

Industrial Internet of Things by Edy Liongosari of Accenturegogo6
The document discusses the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and its potential benefits. It notes that the IIoT involves intelligent industrial products, processes and services communicating over networks. Trillions of dollars in benefits are possible from the IIoT through improved operational efficiency, new products/services, and an outcomes-based economy. Realizing these benefits will require connected ecosystems and platforms to aggregate and utilize data to create new value-added services. The most transformative impacts will be the emergence of an outcomes economy and tight integration of digital and human labor.

The Industrial Internet can be thought of as Intelligent Industrial Systems. A subset of Intelligent Systems per IDC’s taxonomy, these systems have extremely high value not just in terms of product and process optimizations, efficiency and cost savings but in the enablement of new business models such as mass customization in manufacturing. This session will focus on the state of Industrial Internet today, the efforts underway to make the Industrial Internet a reality, leading companies, technologies and products in the space, efforts at standardization, case studies of the Industrial Internet in action, and opportunities in the space.
Accelerated adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) with In-network computing an...Infosys
In-network computing gives you the ability to compute at a particular point in the network where it can deliver maximum value. This opens new avenues of how applications and services are conceptualized or implemented, harvesting the benefits of distributed computing. In-network computing has significant benefits for the network infrastructure as it improves latency for end user/ devices while it also reduces the network traffic to a great extent.

Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

What is a Microgrid?
• A microgrid is a localized grouping
of electricity generation, energy
storage, and loads that normally
operates connected to a traditional
centralized grid (macrogrid). This
single point of common coupling
with the macrogrid can be
disconnected. The microgrid can
then function autonomously.
