INDUSTRIAL IOT


If implementing IoT within your organization it makes sense to target improving operational efficiency; it’s easier for the bean counters to sign off on than some esoteric new IoT business opportunity. This, as I’ve discussed before, is the thin edge of the IoT wedge for getting a pilot started. Next - what OPEX should you go after? Find a metric that everyone in the company or business unit or department, understands and lives by and then apply IoT there first. If people have a stake in it they will be more willing to change, readjust processes and help make the project successful. Rather than making it a top-down edict, power the IoT project from the bottom-up.

If your company is collecting data, and every IoT company collects data, it needs a formal “Information Security Program”. We’ve talked risk assessment in the past, that is the process of assigning liability to each potential security breach, but that’s only part of the program.
Listen to this podcast (or read the transcript) I speak with John Ansbach about the rest of the “Information Security Program”, impending regulation and privacy concerns ...


Visualizing IoT big data is as much an art as it is a science. The palette is underlying algorithms and the exterior is color and texture mapping. Images aren’t static – they are interacted with in 3D or animated as a movie. The result is a science-based art form designed to convey information or present a story where the human mind can discover hidden value invisible to the algorithm. As a subset of descriptive analytics, it is another tool for the data scientist, subject matter expert or executive to extract value form the numbers coming from IoT sensors and data services.

Episode 43


Listen to this analysis episode (or read the transcript) with Bruce Sinclair about why he considers LPWA to be an existential threat to the mobile industry in IoT. Mobile World Congress 2016 is the first major public battle ground… the first of many ...




Episode 42

The business counterpart to IoT security is risk, loosely defined as probability times liability. The current narrative around liability is centered on privacy but it turns out that laws, regulations and cyber security in general are some of the other elements in the IoT liability matrix.
Listen to this podcast (or read the transcript) I speak with Mark Radcliffe about the current IoT legal framework and the potential liabilities to address early on in the IoT product development cycle ...


Creating the local intelligence for an Internet of Things product requires special programming skills and knowhow to work within constrained environments. Environments possibly constrained by computing, networking, memory, power or all of the above. The effort to reduce manufacturing costs produces these constraints but sometimes the biggest costs are the ones you didn’t plan for.
Watch this video (or read the transcript) to see Peter Hoddie share his deep experience in programming constrained devices and the (business) issues to consider when planning development ...

The digital twin, as GE refers to it, or the software-defined product (SDP) as I teach it, is the critical component of incremental value generation in the Internet of Things. It’s always overlooked at the expense of the shiny things… and that’s a mistake. The digital twin or SDP is central to the IoT product/system/environment – interrogated by the product app and worked on and improved by analytics – it is the place to start when defining your IoT product requirements.
