Digital Industrial Transformation with the Internet of Things

Infographic | December 6, 2019

At the heart of the digital transformation of asset-intensive industries, such as manufacturing, is the leveraging of emerging technology to streamline decade-old processes and operations, improve existing products and launch new ones, create new channels to the customers and develop new business models.

The Internet of Things-Enabled Smart City Framework, or IES-City Framework

Infographic | January 15, 2020

Two barriers currently exist to effective and powerful smart city solutions. First, many current smart city ICT deployments are based on custom systems that are not interoperable, portable across cities, extensible, or cost-effective. Second, a number of architectural design efforts are currently underway (e.g. ISO/IEC JTC1, IEC, IEEE, ITU and consortia) but have not yet converged, creating uncertainty among stakeholders. There is a lack of consensus on both a common language/taxonomy and smart city architectural principles.

IoT and the supply chain

The proliferation of connected technologies across multiple industries is undeniable. Research firm Gartner put the figure of connected things in use at 8.4 billion in 2017, up 31% from the year before. That will reach 20.4 billion devices by 2020, Gartner predicted. Within these figures, it’s estimated that consumer applications represents 63% of total IoT applications in 2017. Impressive, sure, but worth noting is that this means business applications represent a huge part of this growing opportunity, as much as 37% last year.
