The cell phone
Allows some essential setting modification and also provides remote functionality.
What is the Internet of Things (IoT)?
An advanced automation and analytics system which exploits networking, sensing, big data, and artificial intelligence technology to deliver complete systems for a product or service. The interconnection of things or objects/machines.
The "*Thing*" in the internet of things refers to what?
An entity or physical object that has a Unique Identifier, and embedded system and the ability to transfer data over a network.
Device integration software
Binds (dependent relationships) all system devices to create the body of the IoT system. Ensures the necessary cooroperation and stable networking between devices.
Web-enabled devices must...
Collect, send and act on data, processors and communication hardware.
Analysis
Creating *information* from collected data.
What modules are "*Sensors*" comprised of?
Energy modules, power management modules, RF modules, and sensing modules.
Application and Process Extension Software
Extend the reach of existing systems and software to allow a wider, more effective system.
Application and Process Extension Software support what?
Improved productivity and more accurate data collection.
Improved Customer Engagement
IoT can achieve richer and more effective engagement with audiences.
AI
Makes virtually anything "*smart*." Meaning it enhances every aspect of life with the power of data collection, artificial intelligence algorithms, and networks.
Data collection software
Manages sensing, measurements, light data filtering, and aggregation data
Connectivity
Means networks are no longer exclusively tied to major providers. Networks can exist on a much smaller and cheaper scale while still being practical. IoT creates these small networks between its systems devices.
The tablet
Provides access to the key features of the system in a way resembling the desktop, and also acts as a remote.
What occurs in the Internet of Things when *Tagging Things* is involved
Real-time item trace-ability and address-ability by RFIDs.
Communication
Sending *data* and events through *networks* to some destination.
Real-Time Analytics Software
Take data or input from various devices and convert it into viable actions or clear patterns for human analysis.
Action
Taking action based upon information and data
What type of hardware provides a user with the highest level of control over the system and its settings?
The Desktop
Sensors
Transform IoT from a standard passive network of devices into an active system capable of real-world integration.
The Internet of Things is comprised of what type of devices
Web-enabled devices
Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication.
When /connected/ or /smart/ devices communicate with each other.
