Timeslotted Channel Hopping (TSCH), via IEEE 802.15.4e, is an emerging standard in industrial automation and process control (via Wireless HART and ISA 100.11a) that defines a communication schedule between neighbor nodes in Low-power and Lossy Networks (LLNs). In an effort to bridge the worlds of operational technology (OT) with information technology (IT), the 6TSCH working group has been established to define how to use IPv6 over the 15.4e.

Internet of Things enterprise security needs to be approached holistically across the IoT cloud, network and end devices. Make security part of the plan from the start of the project. Divide responsibilities among the internal team and external partners and hold everyone accountable. Just a few pieces of advice from this video.

Although these are still early days in IoT deployments, the benefits of fog computing are already coming into focus. As deployment scale goes up, so too does the amount of data captured and the volume can quickly become overwhelming. Depending on the scale, running security, local analytics and data optimization closer to the sensors can be beneficial.

The AllSeen Alliance gets a lot of press but it’s still mostly misunderstood. For most its name is synonymous with home IoT but that’s only the first step in a broader vision that encompasses consumer, commercial, industrial and infrastructure IoT. It’s currently focused on home automation because that’s the current focus of its members. But this will change over time.

Backhaul solutions for the Internet of Things are getting more sophisticated and Stream Technologies is a good example. Customers will buy connectivity from Stream to abstract their backhaul network so they don’t need to concern themselves with different mobile and satellite operators and their different contracts and pricing.

No one company is big enough to provide an end-to-end industrial Internet of Things solution. Realizing this, ATT, Cisco, GE, IBM and Intel came together to found the Industrial Internet Consortium (IIC). The end game however is not technology, but business – to understand what is needed to put together solutions that not only work well, but sell well.
Listen to this podcast (or read the transcript) with Lynne Canavan, Stephen Mellor and Brian Dalgetty as we discuss the IIC ...


Janusz Bryzek is a man on a mission. A mission to cure world hunger and eliminate the lack of global medical care, clean air, clean water and clean energy within 20 years. That’s all. He’s doing his part with his Trillion Sensors Initiative to realize one of the eight technologies required to bring about “abundance” as defined by visionary Peter Diamantis.
Watch this video (or read the transcript)to understand what abundance is and the role the Internet of Things plays in it ...
