On September 9-10 2011 I attended a ldquovi-sionaryrdquo conference at Ritz Carlton in Laguna Niguel California The theme was Inter-net-of-Things (IoT) The driving force behind this conference was National Semiconductors There were demos of IoT appliances in different shapes and forms You could check email in the kitchen as if you were using a tablet Nothing happened in the next 10 years On September 23 2011 Texas Instrument announced the ac-quisition of National Semiconductors IoT was new to me then It was also a concept before its time Actually the first time I heard about this concept was from Bill Gates of Microsoft In a conference he shared enthusiastically the idea of using software to control smart objects The market would be great because billions of smart objects would be connected (Google was a tiny unknown company at the time) He was partially right Billions of things would be connected but not with Windows He talked about smart refrigerator In May this year I saw Samsung advertising a smart 36 inch 4-door French-door refrigerator equipped with Wi-Fi and an IoT camera inside to allow you to see how much milk you have left (List price is over $5000) So you can pick up a bottle of milk on your way home Only time will tell if smart refrigerator is a smart concept or not

Do you remember the dot com era Venture capital companies were pouring money into dot com start-ups The bubble burst Most dot com companies failed But a few succeeded

Will IoT or Industrial Internet-of-Things (IIoT) be another bubble Most market research firms predict there will be multiple billions of things connected by 2020 You can monitor anything anytime to get the best performance from your process with reduced costs In a recent IoT conference a speaker gave an illustration of the benefit of IIoT When IIoT was applied in building an airplane you could record and monitor the movement of a technician using a machine tool Later on an-alytic would be able to correlate the movement

of the tool and quality of the workmanship Enlightening

If you are an enthusiast you will think of a million ways how IIoT can be used bet-ter healthcare preventive maintenance and monitoring your moving assets like a delivery truck If you are a pessimist you can think of a million ways how hackers will be able to exploit the weak points of an unsecured connection and there are lots of them A person attending a medical conference asked ldquoWhat if a hacker disrupted the wireless pace maker worn by a head of a countryrdquo Can you imagine when hackers take over the control of your connected car while you are driving Worse the outcome of an energy smart grid or nuclear plant being hacked would be disastrous

It does not matter which side you are on the IIoT revolution is a modern gold rush and is unstoppable

Will you find gold IIoT In this special edition we will discuss the IIoT opportunities and who are doing it A report focus on Cisco will highlight their strategy Finally there will be articles from the IIoT experts covering var-ious topics smart energy Fog computing IIoT standard software-defined radio smart city design ideas case study and more Figure 1

Special Report Have You Found Gold Yet

The Gold Rush days are coming back Except this time the is on Industrial Internet-of-Things (IIoT) Why is the industry buzzing about the IIoT For some it represents limitless potential and opportunities This is bigger and better than the dot com era Dan Isaacs Director Con-nected Systems and IIoT Ecosystem at Xilinx points out that IoT will provide smart solutions to medical energy automotive manufacturing and other industrial segments It can poten-tially reduce unplanned down time and reduce costs of manufacturing Dell agrees

industryrdquo The World Economic Forum with its leadership from corporations with revenues over $5 billion and various govern-ment bodies endorsed IIoT The business trustees include Marc R Benioff Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Salesforce Jack Ma Executive Chairman Alibaba Group Holding Limited Jim Yong Kim President The World Bank Christine Lagarde Managing Director International Monetary Fund (IMF) Indra Nooyi Chairman and Chief Executive Officer PepsiCo Inc and more In its 2015 paper it defined the adoption and impact path of the Industrial Internet into four different phases Near term goals included Operational Efficiency and New Products and Services with long term goals aimed at Outcome Economy and Autonomous Pull Economy IIoT is not just a clever idea from


one country it is a worldwide movement There are many other opportunities besides smart manufacturing Smart Cities Smart Buildings Energy and Smart Grid management Connected Cars Healthcare Process Control and more

How Big is The MarketAccording to BI Intelligence the IoT market will experience

exponential growth to reach 34 billion connected devices in 2020 up from 10 billion in 2015 Within the 34 billion devices 70 will be directly related to new IoT devices and the rest are traditional smartphone tablets and smart wearables VDC pre-dicts the IIoT and connected factory market will grow from $6 billion in 2015 to $207 billion in 2020 a CAGR of 281 Figure 1 VDC further explains that various industrial segments includ-ing automation amp control energy and utilities would provide the biggest opportunities for IoT gateway and services providers Cellular and analytics services will reap benefits from the IIoT service segment The market is big enough for everyone

What is IIoTIn simple terms IIoT is a way to connect many devices or

sensors together using Internet commonly known as the Cloud Internet-of-Things covers everything under the sun including consumer products such as smart watches and other fitness wear-ables IIoT has a similar definition of IoT except it focuses mainly on the industrial aspect such as manufacturing connected cities cars and health Even though some authors may use the term IoT in this edition its focus is on industrial segments Typical IIoT ar-chitecture consists of four major components as shown in figure 2 Things refer to the intelligent devices or sensors Local Networks include the network and gateway hardware connecting to Things What we donrsquot see but included here are the software layers The

Internet is all the connections between Local Networks and the Back-End Services which include servers analytic software and other devices used to access the Internet

Why the excitements The connected ldquothingsrdquo can create op-timal performance and increase productivity worldwide That is why Industry heavyweights like Dell GE IBM Microsoft Intel SAP and Cisco are full steam ahead Some see it as the next industrial revolution The big question is what is the ROI

Where are the opportunitiesSmart Manufacturing Leadership Coalition defines smart

manufacturing as ldquothe integration of network-based data and information that provides real-time understanding reason-ing planning management and related decision making of all aspects of a manufacturing and supply chain enterpriserdquo Smart manufacturing can potentially shift the paradigm About 50 years ago industrial countries figured out the way to increase margin was outsourcing manufacturing to places with low labor costs such as China Today the skill level of the Chinese labor has increased and so have the costs Foxconn the worldrsquos largest contract manufacturing company builds products for Fortune 500 companies including Applersquos iPhone with headquarters in Taiwan and manufacturing facilities in China Eastern Europe and other parts of the world has recently replaced 60000 human factory workers with robots Companies can no long compete based on cheap labor only They have to rely on IIoT intelligence and automation in the future

IIoT can solve problems in many other industrial segments For example it can reduce the costs of energy of industrial buildings Today Heating Ventilation and Air-conditioning (HVAC) systems in large commercial buildings use building

management systems (BMS) made by compa-nies such as Johnson Controls and Honeywell to optimize system performance but BMS can be an expensive investment that take years to breakeven Mid-size and small firms cannot afford it IIoT can potentially solve that problem HCL Technol-ogies uses the Intel-based gateways and sensors to monitor the building edge devices including HVAC security lighting water and electrical equipment to optimize energy efficiency using the cloud Large building control companies are rushing to invest in the IIoT

Smart City is another segment gaining mo-mentum IIoT can optimize city lights traffic and synchronize the communication of emergency vehicles That is why many cities around the world are joining the IIoT movement Vietnamrsquos capital city Ho Chi Minh City cities in Sweden Norway and Denmark are among those to pioneer Smart City An efficient city means less traffic jams safer and costs less to run Emergency vehicles such as fire trucks and ambulance can get to destinations Figure 1 IIoT and Connected Factory market will reach $207 billion in 2020 at a CAGR of

281 Source VDC


quicker with synchronous traffic signals control by IIoT and the emergency crews can be dispatched more efficiently Connected car is an area with potential Only a few automakers are using IIoT as a mean to connect the vehicle to monitor the perfor-mance and provide better customer services Hunyadi now has a solution to allow owners to remotely control some of the functions of the car such as locking and unlocking Soon cars will be able to communicate with each other to warn other cars of accidents ahead ATT is getting serious with smart city and has already started its pilot program in seven locations includ-ing Atlanta GA Chicago IL Dallas TX Georgia Institute of Technology Miami-Dade County FL Montgomery County MD and Chapel Hill NC They are also investing in connected car wearables connected home connected health IoT Security and Industrial

Future healthcare will depend more and more on wireless connection for patient monitoring Connected hospitals will have control rooms to monitor the vital signs of patients 24 hours a day wirelessly to provide better patient experience Stroke patients can be discharged from hospitals after being sta-bilized and can still be monitored remotely by their caretakers These are only a few illustrations of things to come

What is The Formula For SuccessCompanies are trying hard to develop formulas to carve out

a piece of the IIoT pie Here are a few examples of how some

Fortune 500 companies do it Under the leadership of Satya Nadella CEO of Microsoft the company has transformed from Windows to an internet company with Azure as its platform just in time to stop the revenue decline IBM uses Watson as its platform to drive AI and IIoT In March of 2015 IBM commit-ted to invest $3 billion to bring cognitive computing to IoT In December of 2015 IBM announced that Munich Germany as the global headquarters for IBMrsquos new Watson IoT unit It was IBMrsquos largest investment in Europe in two decades It has an army of 1400 IoT business partners to help sell its services GE introduced the Predix as the industrial internet platform and formed partnership with Microsoft ldquoCompanies donrsquot want disparate disjointed systems they want technology that brings things togetherrdquo says Abhi Kunteacute global head of technology strategic alliances at GE Digital ldquoThis partnership with Micro-soft will provide seamless integration of our technologies that will drive a lot of efficiencies for our customersrdquo Additionally its Predix Transform conference has attracted strong support from Deloitte Intel Hewlett Packard Accenture Dell and more Most companies will admit that they cannot do it alone That is why companies are forming partnership GE is an Operational Technology expert in the Oil and Gas industry To succeed in providing a total IIoT solution including IT it partners with companies such as Cisco Dell or Hewlett Packard to do the job The IT companies would partner with OT companies for the same reason Cisco an IT company for example would team up

Have You Found Gold YetWhile there are ways to generate revenue from IIoT have you

found gold yet Greenwave Systems a 280-employee compa-ny has offices in Singapore Irvine CA Demark and Korea Its AXON platform is aimed at smart home network (both IP and IoT) media entertainment and mobile IoT The software platform serves as a translator that allows disparate devices in the smart ecosystem to work together seamlessly and has also helped telco companies such as Verizon to capture detailed per-formance information from devices like wireless hubs Before customers experience device problems AXON has already re-ported the performance data to the service provider This allows the service provider to be proactive The future is bright for Gre-enwave Earlier this year the company received another round of funding of $60 million When Jim Hunter Chief Scientist and Technology Evangelist was asked ldquoIn the IIoT Gold Rush have you found gold yetrdquo Yes was his reply

Another area of demand is analytic and creating meaning information from the sea of raw data SaM Solutions a 600-em-ployee software consultancy with offices in the USA and Eastern Europe provides IIoT and Open Source solutions to manufac-tures have also found gold According to Alex Vilner managing partner of SaM Solutions ldquoIIoT in manufacturing provides management with meaningful data so they can manage and op-timize the performance of the connected factories to maximize profit In the past manufactures have to rely on old software or manual labor to get the informationrdquo

Others are still searching

The FutureIt is not easy to navigate through the IIoT maze There are

still challenges ahead (1) The much needed secured end-to-end connection is easier said than done Increased connection will only create more opportunities for hackers (2) The challenge of creating and using meaningful big data cannot be underestimat-ed With projection of multiple billion ldquothingsrdquo to be connected by 2020 massive data will be generated Who has ownership of these data If not managed well big data can potentially cause chaos (3) Lack of international standard is another big challenge Today there are quite a few standards being proposed It will be interesting to see how these standardsrdquo will evolve In summary IIoT presents both opportunities and risks Will it be smooth sailing or a long and winding road Finding the path to generate meaningful ROI is the key

30 IIOT CREATES A NEW HVAC BUSINESS MODEL

IIoT Creates a New HVAC Business Model

by Mark Kerbel Encycle and Rod McLane Ayla Networks

The Internet of Things (IoT) promises to fundamentally alter our relationships with the products that surround us The example of energy demand management systems in connected heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment provides les-sons for other markets that are being transformedmdashor soon will bemdashby the IoT

HVAC equipment represents a multibillion-dollar global market with a nearly ubiquitous presence in everyday life HVAC also is a major energy consumer accounting for nearly 40 of the electricity used in commercial buildings and a hefty proportion of residential usersrsquo energy bills The IoT can potentially revolution-ize not only how we use and pay for HVAC but also the funda-mental design of HVAC equipment and even the business models of the manufacturers themselves

Smart buildings smart cities and smart homes are among the markets at the forefront of the IoT and HVAC plays a major role in each HVAC manufacturers have spent years or decades refining their productsrsquo capabilities within traditional frameworks

But creating a connected HVAC product is not as simple as embedding a wireless chip or adding a sensor or two Manufactur-ers of connected HVAC equipment need to consider things such as network security device security embedded wireless protocols cloud infrastructure web or mobile application design user expe-rience best practices and data privacymdashissues that never arose for traditional products and that manufacturers are unlikely to be able to address using their in-house expertise

Whatrsquos more the IoT raises all these issues to the nth degree due to the need for IoT products to interoperate seamlessly with one another to be controlled by various mobile device and browser types to be compatible with multiple cloud infrastructures to of-

fer enterprise-grade security from end to end with no weak links to scale all these capabilities to thousands or millions of connected products and to stay current with fast-changing and ever-evolving standards and protocols to avoid product obsolescence

The IoT Beyond Mere ConnectionThe reasons for overcoming the challenges to joining the IoT

only begin with connecting products the real advantages lie in the data generated by connected productsmdashand what manufacturers can do with that data For example HVAC manufacturers can use IoT data to

bull Differentiate products in crowded marketplaces and avoid being left behind competitively When connected products become the norm manufacturers that have not figured out the IoT will be at a big disadvantage

bull Enhance customer experiences by responding to real-world data on how customers are actually using products in their homes or commercial buildings

bull Improve their product designs also based on real-world data of both in-the-field product performance and customer usage For instance if the IoT data shows that a particular air condi-tioner feature is rarely used or difficult to find or wears out quickly the HVAC manufacturer can decide to fix the feature in future product generations or eliminate it or approach it in a better way

bull Generate new revenue streams HVAC manufacturers could offer preventive maintenance or repair services better war-ranty services or advanced add-on featuresmdashall based on the data generated by their deployed products

Because energy management is such a huge issue for HVAC equipment itrsquos fortunate that this area is one that is ripe for im-provement through IoT technologies

How the IoT Can Improve HVAC Energy Efficiency

A recent ClimateProgress report estimated that if buildings in Boston adjusted their thermostats up one degree in the summer and down one degree in the winter the buildings could collec-tively save over $20 million in energy costs each year and cut CO2 emissions by 81017 metric tons Imagine extending those savings throughout the country and across the globe and itrsquos clear that home and business owners could cut their energy costs while contributing to a more environmentally friendly world

Most HVAC systems today however are manually controlled or have only basic automation tied to time of day or temperature setpoints IoT-connected HVAC equipment offers new opportuni-ties to improve the efficiency of the products themselves while also creating a better customer experience

For instance IoT HVAC systems can use sensors and Wi-Fi cloud connectivity to automatically adjust the temperature when rooms are unoccupied They can also leverage third-party data and services to enhance efficiency A perfect example is cloud-

based weather service information which can be integrated with connected HVAC systems to plan for predicted weather conditions and to increase the lead time for response to various weather events The HVAC systems can also use historical data to eliminate lags in responses that create frustration and inconveniencemdashand that can diminish energy efficiency

Using such integrated services HVAC systems in buildings and homes automatically adjust themselves to optimize both energy efficiency and occupant comfort Data connected from IoT-en-abled HVAC equipment can also be optimized to estimate future occupancy control and energy usage For instance this kind of data can be integrated with web-based calendar applications to automatically make conference and other meeting rooms comfort-able just as people are scheduled to begin using the rooms

Providing HVAC System Control to Every-one Who Needs It

IoT connectivity also addresses another issue How to provide easy access as well as controls over access for the operation of HVAC systems In the IoT the process of interacting with HVAC systems changes from a hardware to a software exercise From here the possibilities become very interesting

Consider commercial or industrial HVAC systems People operating or desiring access to the HVAC systems include local and head-office facility managers energy managers third-party property management firms contractors systems integrators and OEMs of related systems such as theater equipment or lighting and utilities and energy service suppliers

The IoT not only makes it possible to provide simple and appro-priate access to different individuals or functions but it also allows the data generated by the connected HVAC system to optimize both energy usage and inhabitantsrsquo comfort Integrating the IoT HVAC system with an energy demand management system pro-vides unprecedented levels of energy efficiency In addition the HVAC control can be integrated with other business services in ways not possible with traditional building control mechanisms

In the IoT a connected thermostat (figure 1) morphs into more than what we typically consider a thermostat With an IoT-en-abled thermostat and integrated energy demand management software

bull Facility managers can ensure occupant comfort via multiple remote access methods

bull Corporate facility managers can ensure that all facilities are performing optimally and as expected

bull Energy managers can assess actual utility costs in real time and historically

bull Contractors can identify maintenance issuesmdashoften even before a problem makes its presence knownmdashand fix them quickly providing excellent customer service

bull Service integrators can tie energy-consuming devices into the overall operation of a facility



bull Utilities can control grid stress and use financial incentives to periodically cut back on energy delivery

At the residential level rather than providing HVAC system control monolithically to homeowners or residents IoT-connect-ed HVAC systems offer the possibility of multi-layered control options including role-based access control (RBAC) functionality RBAC enables for instance different HVAC access control priv-ileges to a householdrsquos adult and child residents guests mainte-nance and service personnel property managers or real estate agents renters including vacation renters and contractors such as electricians or plumbers

RBAC functionality can also be tied to energy demand man-agement systems as another layer of access control For instance even if a user has permission to set the thermostat for cooling at a particular time of day the energy demand management system can be ldquoinstructedrdquo to override that setting by a degree or two if it detects that the userrsquos setting will incur peak-time electrical charges or coincide with a time of extreme demand on the grid Figure 2

The IoT Demands New Manufacturing Business ModelsWhen contemplating a move to the IoT manufacturers must

rethink many fundamentals of their business models For in-stance as in the example of the connected thermostat in HVAC systems the IoT requires manufacturers to shift from a primarily hardware to a primarily software mindset Even more dramat-ically they need to stop thinking of their offerings primarily as discrete ldquoproductsrdquo and start considering them more like ongoing ldquoservicesrdquo instead

The difference between selling hardware and software and between selling products and services fundamentally changes business models from pricing and distribution to organizational

structure and the types of expertise their employees need to have Manufacturers might need to reevaluate what business they are in with connected versions of their products and how it differs from their traditional businesses For example are they still in the business of selling HVAC equipment Or are they in the business of providing comfort and energy efficiency to building owners and occupants

IoT-based offerings are no longer one-off product hardware sales Instead manufacturers will embark on new relationships with customers that last for the entire lifecycle of the hardware product Through over-the-air (OTA) communications firmware updates and feature enhancements can be delivered to IoT prod-ucts for as long as they are installed Given this shift how should manufacturers price their offerings What services can they monetize And how much will these software- and services-based offerings contribute to overall revenues

Manufacturers also face questions about how much of the IoT aspect of their offerings they are prepared to handle in-house IoT technology is extraordinarily complex Issues such as security in-teroperability and scalability are crucial to any IoT productrsquos suc-cess yet they are unforgiving Even minor mistakes or weaknesses can spell disaster for a companyrsquos products competitiveness and even its brand reputation

For that reason perhaps the most important business model-re-lated question is whether to build or buy IoT technology expertise In almost every case the answer will be to purchase much or all of this technology from IoT specialists That way manufacturers can focus on designing making and selling enhanced versions of what has brought them success in the pre-IoT world

Fog Computing is a system-level horizontal architecture that distributes resources and services of computing storage control and networking anywhere along the continuum from the cloud to the things High-performance high-scale high-availability IoT appli-cations which may have been impossible if run exclusively in the cloud are enabled via a hierarchical fog system between the things and the cloud This lets us grow IoT to support the existing and future performance-critical mission-critical and life-critical applications

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a multi-trillion dollar op-portunity that will fundamentally change our interaction with technology the world and each other in the coming years As billions of sensors actuators and other devices are connected to the Internet our world is becoming increasingly digitized This pervasive connectivity is expected to make our technology and our applications more powerful efficient secure and safe

Unfortunately there are many challenges to realizing the full digitization of the planet Cloud computing has been providing flexible scalable cost-effective computation and storage for IoT applications But sometimes the cloud is unable to meet the stringent requirements of critical IoT applications and must be supplemented with localized computation networking and

storage resources and services In other words cloud capabilities will need to be brought ldquocloser to the groundrdquo to meet these challenges ndash forming the key premise of fog computing Figure 1 is an overview of a fog computing network in a smart city appli-cation Other fog applications would have similar structure

IoT Applications that Benefit from Fog Hundreds of use cases in vertical markets as diverse as trans-

portation utilities smart cities manufacturing retail energy healthcare agriculture government and the consumer space have demonstrated significant business values and the technical necessity of fog computing The following are several such use cases where fog computing will play an essential role

bull In intelligent transportation sys-tems fog nodes are often used along the roadside at traffic intersections along rail lines and at drone or un-manned aerial vehicle (UAV) flyway cabinets to support vehicle-to-in-frastructure communication host sensors and provide the local intel-ligence needed to implement critical applications like collision avoidance autonomous vehicle control and wireless charging for batteries on electrical vehicles Stringent latency requirements mandate that some critical computing resources must be local If the critical sensor readings were transported to the cloud and the cloudrsquos responses were transported back to the actuators on the vehicles several hundred milliseconds of laten-

Figure 1 Fog Computing Overview Fog nodes operate between the cloud and things in an IoT network providing distributed computing networking and storage capabilities


cy could happen because of network delays time of flight and server queue times During that time high speed vehicles may travel on the order of ten meters or more seriously compromis-ing the effectiveness and safety of smart transportation applica-tions such as collision avoidance or platooning Local fog nodes can achieve response times in the millisecond range greatly improving performance and safety of these critical applications

bull Monitoring of wells and pipelines in the oil and gas industry is a key IoT application A large production installation could create terabytes per day of raw sensor readings Since these installations are often in remote areas the network bandwidth to send this data to the cloud may be unavailable or prohibitively expensive By installing local fog nodes near the facilities local computation and storage capabilities can continuously monitor the data streams perform local ana-lytics to detect potential problems and early warning signs and distill the readings into much smaller messages that can be efficiently and economically transported over limited long-haul network bandwidth to the cloud-based systems

bull Some mobile applications require continuous control or monitoring In fleet management applications the location status cargo condition and driving behavior of vehicles is continuously monitored and reported to the cloud Un-fortunately due to the sometimes patchy cellular network connectivity to these vehicles we canrsquot rely on the cloud alone to collect these readings Local fog nodes riding on the vehicles can continuously collect the required data and immediately send it to the cloud when network connections are available When they are not connected the local fog nodes store the readings and send them to the cloud once network connections are re-established

bull Certain IoT applications require nonstop operations over long periods of time even in the pres-ence of intermittent network con-nectivity to the cloud and even in cases of catastrophic network fail-ures Consider a smart city emer-gency response application that provides wireless connectivity to first responders and to the general public to provide response plans evacuation routes or emergency instructions In the aftermath of a natural disaster the cloud-based web servers that run the munic-ipal emergency website may be unreachable If wireless access points distributed across the city have battery backup and local fog nodes associated with them have pre-cached this information the

public can receive their vital instructions even though the Internet infrastructure is hopelessly damaged

Fog computing and networking architectures are being devel-oped to support these and many other applications and meet these challenges Fog nodes can form a multi-level hierarchy with local fog nodes close to the things neighborhood-level fog nodes supporting a group of local fog nodes and regional fog nodes covering larger geographic areas (eg city-wide) In each level of the hierarchy multiple fog nodes collaborate with each other sharing applications balancing computing and network-ing loads and distributing data storage A variety of network-ing links with capacities matching specific application needs connect things to local fog nodes High-speed network links will interconnect fog nodes between the local neighborhood and regional levels connect multiple fog nodes at the same level and interconnect the fog nodes to the cloud This richly intercon-nected end-to-end fog system provides the capacity perfor-mance and reliability scalability of the fog solution Figure 2 illustrates some of the challenges associated with running appli-cations exclusively in the cloud or in intelligent endpoints and how a hierarchical fog network can address these challenges

The Open Fog Consortium (OpenFog)For fog computing to be truly successful it must be based

upon an open architecture with interoperable standards supported by a large ecosystem of innovative companies If fog computing is a closed single supplier product application de-velopers and system integrators will be reluctant to invest in it

In November 2015 leading organizations including Cisco Dell Intel Microsoft ARM and Princeton University launched the Open Fog Consortium (OpenFog) to develop an open reference architecture demonstrate the business value and

technology necessity and accelerate market adoption of fog computing Since then many more industry leaders startups and research institutes have joined OpenFog Regional teams in different parts of the world are being launched to better address the unique needs in different regions To boost industry-aca-demia collaboration on fog computing OpenFog has formed a strategic affiliation with the IEEE to co-create and co-promote fog concepts and architectures and collaborate on marketing education and standards initiatives

The recently published OpenFog Reference Architecture White Paper (httpwwwopenfogconsortiumorgresources) describes the high level properties the OpenFog founding mem-bers envision for fog At the core of this work is a description of eight ldquoPillars of Fog Computingrdquo that cover the most critical properties of fog computing (see Figure 3)

Currently OpenFog is focused on producing the OpenFog Reference Architecture This will be a comprehensive guide to the implementation and deployment of standard interoperable fog computing capabilities Systems designed in compliance with the OpenFog Reference Architecture should be expected to interoperate seamlessly Looking beyond todayrsquos cloud comput-ing you will see the emergence of the fog computing era Fog computing bridges todayrsquos Internet to the full potential of IoT to support everything from consumer electronics to industrial control systems to drones and pervasive virtual reality

32 OPEN-SYSTEM STANDARDS ARE MAKING THE IOT A REALITY

The IoT continues to be at the forefront of the electronics industryrsquos collective imagination With predictions of billions of devices involved in every aspect of our lives by 2020 there is clearly promise and opportunity However the industry may need to turn the dial back a few notches since opportunity does not equal readiness IoT devices will simply require ldquomorerdquo moving forward They will need more performance more capability more memory more connectivity more sensors more security etc but with ldquolessrdquo - lower power consumption lower cost and smaller packages

This is where open-system standards and organizations like the IPSO Alliance come into play and where they can have the most impact Open standards and the organizations participating in such efforts work to develop the ideas that will allow the IoT to become a reality they are able to contribute their collective knowledge to ldquomake it workrdquo Further open-system standards offer the only way to achieve the economies of scale required to make the IoT financially possible

There are numerous open-standards organizations actively engaged in supporting the development of the IoT Some focus on developing the software to link the IoT others on enabling in-teroperability cloud scalability etc For example the IPSO Alliance historically worked to promote the use of Internet protocol for IoT devices with that work complete it has evolved to focus on issues related to device identity and privacy Important too are formal standards organizations that look to develop and formalize the standards they feel are most needed to ensure the IoTrsquos success

So once the open-system standards are defined will the IoT be full steam ahead The reality is that open-system standards orga-nizations establish the goals and targets and identify and develop the path forward but it will always fall to commercial organizations to productize this work and make the IoT come to fruition For example certain verticalsmdashsuch as medical and some industrial applicationsmdashneed additional proof of quality which is outside the scope of open-systems standards It is here that the handoff is made to commercial entities to develop proprietary solutions based on the work of standards organizations but that meet end-customer

33 HOW SOFTWARE-DEFINED RADIO IMPACTS THE INTERNET OF THINGS (IOT)

Although there has been a lot of discussion about the Inter-net of Things (IoT) we are left with a lot more questions than answers Itrsquos still early days and as a result we donrsquot have any set standards or frameworks for development and security

Itrsquos estimated that 64 billion connected devices will be in use this year So it will be interesting to see how all these connected smart devices will work together This number will rise to a whop-ping 21 billion by the year 2020 so there is an urgency to build robust IoT devices

IoT is built on the back of wireless communications systems that bridge the gap for dual direction communication and interaction (control message delivery and data collection) These principles can be applied to any IoT application whether it is a vital industry like an oil refinery or a smart fridge in a smart city

As a result you can expect a massive volume of data to be

How Software-Defined Radio Impacts the Internet of Things

SDR technology can bridge different wireless devices across different frequencies and pro-tocols At present time there is limited spectrum available and effective use of the available spectrum is key As SDRs can be adjusted to operate on different frequencies with varying bandwidth itrsquos the ideal option to help build robust IoT infrastructure that will be connected maintained and managed across multiple parts of the spectrum

communicated via IoT devices in real-time Further all these different devices operating on different platforms and standards need to be able to communicate and operate seamlessly

There are several standards groups for IoT includingbull Thread Groupbull AllSeen AllianceAllJoynbull IEEE P2413bull ITU-T SG20bull Industrial Internet Consortiumbull Apple HomeKitbull Open Interconnect ConsortiumIoTivity

For now all these incompatible technologies are working together using established communications protocols such as Bluetooth ZigBee and Z-Wave


What are the main issues faced by the IoT industry

IoT wireless networks have extremely limited spectrum re-sources Further a large number of sensors with distributed sites have to be connected maintained and managed

IoT will function in an environment with a lot of interferenc-es consequently the communication from these devices need to be seamless and highly reliable In an outdoor environment devices need to be built with simple architecture and low power consumption (installation and maintenance need to be made easier as well)

Where does Software-Defined Radio come in

Software-defined radio (SDR) can enhance interoperability and set up the infrastructure for future devices so that they arenrsquot restricted by bandwidth or frequency Some of the current issues faced by the industry can be resolved by providing an end-to-end wireless platform for IoT This in turn can enable optimized communication from a sensor network to a wider area via a radio network

Incorporating an IT-based SDR into IoT devices can handle all base band processing via multi-cores processors (such as x86 POWER or Cell BE) on a traditional IT platform This can be tied to acceleration technologies like vector processors parallel processors and SIMD

In other words SDR can act as the central hub or router where several users can connect to the device via Wi-Fi cellular or Bluetooth to control or get data from any wireless device One of the best things about SDR is the fact that you can essentially enhance signal processing with low latency Further you can also use some wireless optimization technologies like

bull Energy efficiency designbull Dynamic spectrum allocationbull Interference mitigation

IT-based SDR systems like Crimson TNG will be highly adapt-able to handle various needs of deployment Further wireless optimization like 4G can efficiently enhance the spectrum to enable long distance coverage while being highly resistant to interference

With SDR various large-scale auto optimization technologies can be built on a self-organize network (SON) As everything can be handled from one platform it will be much easier to

Figure 1 The Per Vices Crimson SDR has four independent receive chains and four independent transmit chains each capable of as much as 322MHz of RF bandwidth up to 6GHz

support and add value to each IoT device This is what makes SDR special it can essentially bridge com-

munication and data transfer of many wireless devices including ones that may be thought to be impossible (eg baby monitor through Wi-Fi or control your Bluetooth device through a cellu-lar connection)

SDR has been around for decades so itrsquos a tried and tested solution that offers high stability flexibility and reliability Itrsquos a platform that is ideal to build a communications infrastructure for IoT applications

IoT will Enable SDR to Finally Realize its True Potential Itrsquos all about machine-to-machine communication and this

makes SDR best suited for this type of new technology So far SDR was primarily used by defense public and emergency service and for research and development

With IoT the potential is limitless as data analytics social media and internet of services can all be enhanced by this technology With everything working effortlessly together it has a real potential of being something revolutionary

Without wireless communication there wonrsquot be an IoT to talk about As a result design teams are forced to build a device capable of seamless connectivity enhanced control and efficien-

cy These heterogeneous systems will need to incorporate dis-tributed networks FPGA computation and real-time elements

As wireless systems become more complex algorithms need to be designed to deal with issues surrounding security coexis-tence bandwidth and power efficiency As a result prototypes need to be built with real world signals and not just theoretical paradigms

Currently the prototyping methods have been inefficient so SDR innovation has been derailed by inefficient software that has been indirect and disjointed There needs to be a platform designed to bridge the gap and create a unified design to trans-fer the algorithm to hardware That is essentially the next step to build a better IoT solution

New products like Crimson TNG is the right choice as it offers extensive flexibility that can aid rapid prototyping to compute elements that control behaviors in the generic wide bandwidth RF front end user-programmable FPGAs and multicore processors

At the moment the tools to enable rapid seamless transition of algorithms on a processor are non-existent FPGAs offer this capability using specialization tools which if used effectively combine with the flexible radio front end and offer a complete solution The demand for the end product is insatiable so as we

approach 5G communication system design standards will be improved significantly

34 HOW SMART IS YOUR CITY

Municipalities are leveraging big data the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence to control transportation resources and services to create a better living environment for residents and businesses Significant advances have already been achieved while other technologies continue to mature See figure 1

by Aravind Yarlagadda Schneider Electric

As automated control systems migrate from the factory and industry into homes municipal systems hospitals roadways and just about everywhere else new opportunities emerge for these systems to work together sharing information that can make the individual systems more effective and more efficient

Smart buildings have embedded control systems that man-age heating and cooling direct elevators to efficiently deliver the best response while tying both to access control for secu-rity and cost savings The emerging smart power grid makes sure that electricity is delivered exactly when and where it is needed with minimal waste and most effective use of all power generation sources Learning capable traffic control computers manage flexible commuting lanes and time control signals to minimize delays and wasted fuel Similar smart controls are being applied to water and gas distribution directing policing and city services and much more The smart city harnesses all of these systems together with powerful software that uses information from each system to make all the others work better The smart city is the network the interconnect-ed computing infrastructure that adds synergy to the individual control and management systems

Computerized controls are becoming commonplace in buildings factories offices and stores And these controls are becoming smarter as the Internet of Things (IoT) low-cost connected sensor technology adds a broader and tighter connection between the controller and the physi-cal world it is managing Increasingly sophis-ticated analytical capabilities add the lsquosmartsrsquo that elevate a simple reactive program (if inside temperature is below 72 degrees turn on the heat) to intelli-gent control (when there are no people currently using the room and no meetings are scheduled for the day and usage patterns

indicate the it is unlikely that the room will be used in the next few hours turn off the lights and let the temperature drop to 65 degrees) Now think about how much ldquosmarterrdquo this logic would be if itrsquos tied in with access control (who is in or out of the building now that often uses this room) transportation (is traffic delaying the normal start of business activity today) weather power systems (are we generating sufficient solar power or would we have to buy power from the grid and if so are we in a peak rate period) and more

When more of the systems within a building are smart and they are allowed to exchange information the benefits increase Tie the environmental controls to the access control system and individual offices can be optimized (Sally left early today so her office heat and lights can be switched to night settings early) Include elevator controls humidity control and

Smart Commercial FacilitiesSpanish Airports and Air Navi-

gation (AENA) is a public company in charge of civil air navigation and airports in Spain Its subsidiary AENA Aeropuertos SA manages 47 airports and two heliports in Spain and participates directly in the management of 28 other terminals throughout the world In passenger count AENA is the worldrsquos leading airport operator with about 200 million passengers per year Serv-ing nearly 40 million passengers in 2015 the Barcelona-El Prat airport also supports a busy air freight hub and has links to mass transit (rail metro bus) and high-speed rail See figure 2

Starting in 2000 El Prat man-agement engaged a number of in-tegrators to implement a Schneider Electric Software monitoring and control system throughout the air-port in anticipation of an expected tripling in the size of the operation They soon realized however that having different systems across

the facility made it practically impossible for the facility to function smoothly Coordination of activities was problematic management and workers were concerned that they would not be able to respond appropriately to incidents Plus additional training was required to teach the staff the unique operation of each proprietary system

A new effort was begun to integrate these disparate systems on a single platform thereby simplifying the entire operation and enabling the synergy that comes from sharing informa-

Figure 2 A Wonderware-based smart building control system handles nearly one million inputs through 80 servers that make up five control environments to manage the terminal buildings cooling and heating power plant and other buildings at the El Prat airport in Spain

Figure 3 Transnet operators work smarter by entering the starting and destination points for cargo transport-ed by rail at this South Africa port relying upon a Wonderware solution to find the shortest route


tion and coordinating activities First 35000 signals in the lighting climate control passenger transport systems and entrances were brought to the new Wonderware-based inte-grated building control system for the existing terminal Next the control systems for services that would support the new under-construction terminal T1 were integrated These includ-ed the fire brigade civil guard waste facilities water control pumping and other systems Wonderware now helps AENA manage 80000 total signals and monitors the infrastructure of the airportrsquos power plants as an integrated solution

A subsequent phase of the project integrated the Automated Luggage Transport System (SATE) which included software to manage luggage movement delivery and incident warning It is notable that El Prat now has one of the lowest lost-luggage rates in Europe The final phase of the project integrated the New Terminal Area Power Plant (CENAT) that powers the airport The system which originally managed 35000 signals now handles nearly one million inputs through 80 servers that make up five control environments that manage the terminal buildings cooling and heating power plant as well as auxiliary buildings for luggage transport and other systems

In addition to building Spainrsquos first smart airport a signif-icant aspect of this systems modernization project aimed at developing and proving out a platform that would be replicable across the other airports in the AENA system The systems have indeed been rolled out to other airports in the system and are proving to be an excellent platform for smart opera-tions throughout the AENA system

Smart TransportationTransnet is the sole transporter of iron ore in South Africa

operating the countryrsquos extensive rail network spanning across South Africa and connecting with other rail networks through-out the sub-continent In total Transnet manages 80 percent of South Africarsquos rail infrastructure See figure 3

Transnet installed a smart system to streamline its conveyor routing system to ensure product is correctly shipped to its final destination manage the portrsquos ongoing expansion enable operations management to keep track of the materials received and maintain accurate shipping and routing records as well as optimize operations to provide the best service at the lowest cost The system helps them to immediately address questions covering materials source locations destination status of raw material shipments route confirmations and individual conveyor availability

Operators can enter the starting point and the destination and the system finds the shortest route Operators can now easily control and supervise overall plant operations to ensure productivity remains at peak levels and they can immediately address issues when they arise Transnet is able to eliminate invalid route selections and increase iron ore shipments to 80 million tons annually Operations management can check the delivery status of iron ore orders in real-time and update mining company status requests The system is able to handle potential emergency events Schneider Electric delivered a highly scalable and flexible software solution which allows for expansion

From Industry to the CityThese same technologies and smart controls are moving

into cities and making up the interconnected grid that shares information that can make each system smarter and more responsive Smart cities tie together individual facilities and departments including municipal offices schools hospitals power plants water supply networks waste management transportation systems utilities fire safety emergency ser-vices law enforcement and other community services so that information from one system can provide context that allows interconnected systems to function more effectively

Smart cities use technology to improve efficiency conserve resources improve services and generally improve the quality of life for residents workers and visitors Smart cities are better able to handle growth and change because they monitor the environment and use of services and facilities ndash they detect changes early adapt to the changing need and project how trends may affect the use and availability of resources in the future so those responsible can take the appropriate actions early enough to prevent unpleasant surprises

35 CASE STUDY

Streamlines Semiconductor Manufacturing Operations with Wireless Sensor Network

The ChallengeSemiconductor companies carefully manage their semiconductor

wafer fabrication facilities (ldquofabsrdquo) to maximize uptime yield and throughput Plant operations teams are constantly looking for new ways to squeeze even fractions of a percent more efficiency out of the manufacturing process (Figure 1)

At Linear Technology Corporationrsquos Silicon Valley fab over 175 specialty gas cylinders are used in the wafer manufacturing process These gas cylinders must be closely monitored to ensure uninter-rupted supply An unplanned interruption of gas supply would result in hundreds of thousands of dollars of wafer scrappage revenue loss and unacceptable delay in product shipments to customers To avoid downtime technicians manually log the pressure of each gas cylinder in the fab three times a day This manual process is prone to human error and is expensive to maintain

This is typically done manually because communications wiring is expensive and impractical in the fab Cylinders are located through-out the facility and for most of the cylinders there are no AC outlets or Ethernet jacks nearby The building is constructed of concrete walls for safety reasons making it cost-prohibitive to install new wires Furthermore a large construction project to install power and com-munications wires would disrupt the manufacturing process causing factory downtime

The SolutionA 32-mote SmartMesh IPtrade wireless mesh network is deployed to

monitor gas pressure in the gas bunker (Figure 2) Every node is pow-

ered by a pair of lithium AA L91 batteries for an approximate 8-year battery life so no additional wiring and no unnecessary downtime was required to install the network Despite the concrete construction and prevalence of metal structures in the fab the network has proven to be extremely reliable As of this write-up the network has been up continuously for over 83 days and has transmitted over 26 million

Linear Technology has installed one of its own wireless sensor networks in its Mil-pitas California semiconductor ldquofabrdquo to monitor gas usage Semiconductor plant operations teams constantly look for new ways to squeeze fractions of a percent more efficiency out of the manufacturing process to maximize uptime yield and throughput Real-time gas consumption rates enable technicians to predict precisely when gas cylinders will need to be replaced reducing wasted gas due to premature cylinder changes The benefits extend beyond efficiencies in day-to-day operations With data readily available to plant management trend analysis identifies opportuni-ties to streamline plant operations


Figure 2 Gas Bunker in Semiconductor Manufacturing Facility ndash Wireless nodes must perform reliably among pervasive metal and heavy concrete construction

data readings with gt9999999 reliability which is 100 times better than the stringent ldquo5 ninesrdquo reliability expected of high availability communication and computer systems

In the gas bunker each cylinder is measured for both tank pressure and regulated pressure and these readings are communi-cated to a central monitoring system via the SmartMeshreg network Each SmartMesh node is connected to a pair of cylinders and sends readings through the wireless mesh network to a web server across the building In the control room the fabrsquos site management software tools display real-time readings and automatically calculate run rates to establish regular schedules for cylinder replacements (Figure 3) In addition low-pressure thresholds are set to alert facility technicians if cylinders reach low levels prior to the replacement schedule Alerts are displayed on the control room monitor and via Internet messag-ing on a 247 basis

ResultsBy using real-time gas consumption rates technicians can pre-

cisely predict when gas cylinders will need to be replaced reducing waste from unused gas due to premature cylinder changes The benefits extend beyond efficiencies in day-to-day operations By centrally collecting gas usage data and making it readily available to plant management this system enables trend analysis which further identifies opportunities to streamline plant operations by correlating readings with specific semiconductor fab processes and geometries This helps to optimize fab capacity growth as the need arises

ldquoThe efficiency gains have more than justified the installation of the SmartMesh gas cylinder monitoring network As a result we

plan to expand this wireless mesh system across the entire plant to gain further efficiency in our operationsrdquo stated Alex McCann Chief Operating Officer of Linear Technology

Summary For semiconductor wafer facilities optimizing uptime and increas-

ing operational efficiency results in increased production output Installation must be non-disruptive fit within existing space confines and work reliably in the metal and concrete structure

In their Silicon Valley semiconductor wafer facility Linear Tech-nology installed a SmartMesh IP wireless mesh network to streamline manufacturing operationsmdashto monitor gas cylinder usage and relay real-time readings to plant management software This data enables quick and accurate gas usage estimation ensuring timely replenish-ment reducing downtime and wasted gas Data points are logged and used to aid capacity planning

36 YOU CAN HACK IT DOES NOT MEAN IT IS RIGHT

by Peter Thorne Director Cambashi

Itrsquos sad to say that reports on the vulnerability of Internet-attached equipment are hardly news They are happening all the time We all know equipment is vulnerable we mainly judge the providers and owners of vulnerable equipment by their response when vulnerabil-ity is pointed out But a remark by a security researcher discussing medical device vulnerabilities caught my eye He said the attackers did not appear to realize they had connected to medical devices That immediately triggered two questions First how did he know Second is there a scale of lsquoblamersquo attached to an attack that depends on the attackerrsquos knowledge of what is being attacked

So how did the researcher know that the bad guys didnrsquot know theyrsquod got into medical equipment The study was reported at Derbycon 2015 by researchers Scott Erven and Mark Collao The research involved building lsquohoneypotrsquo systems These honeypots were Internet-connected computers acting the same way as the medical equipment selected for the research So therersquos the answer to the first question - the researchers could instrument their honeypot systems so that they could lsquowatchrsquo and measure every attack They could see that the honeypot-visiting-mal-ware did not look for configuration application location service information and other clues that might identify the equipment as lsquoin a hospitalrsquo or lsquomade by a medical device companyrsquo

This answer triggers a follow up question - how did the researchers choose the medical equipment to emulate with honeypots Of course they needed to identify Internet-visible examples This involved use of the Shodan search engine (see httpswwwshodanio) Shodanrsquos front page points out something that is well known but often not center stage - websites are not the only content on the Internet other connected devices are also visible from smart TVs to power plants In this case Shodan helped the researchers identify relevant types of medical equipment

Let me add another data point to confirm there are plenty of inadequately guarded systems out there I was recently in discussion with someone working for a manufacturing systems integrator We were talking about the business climate and I mentioned how Stuxnet had made security a requirement for every industrial control system ldquoItrsquos not as simple as thatrdquo came the reply It turned out this system integrator had expected growth in revenue related to firewalls and se-curity-related device and network configuration for their production equipment projects But growth had been hard to find - even though everyone specifying an industrial control system knew about Stuxnet ldquoWersquove seen firewalls removed from the specification to reduce costsrdquo Therersquos no major need for alarm here this behavior was unusual and hadnrsquot happened in a regulated industry Sometimes it was even OK because the IT department had taken over responsibility for security

and were providing a safe network for their manufacturing col-leagues But yoursquod want to quiz the person making this decision

So on to my second question Is there a scale of blame related to knowledge of what is being attacked to attach to malware perpe-trators I donrsquot claim any special knowledge of ethics or morality (actually I had to check the definitions to see the difference) But I can imagine an insurance company wanting to reduce the payout when they discovered firewalls had been taken off the specification of an industrial control system And I can imagine a defense attorney pleading that there had been no intention that malware should infect and damage critical infrastructure ldquohellipmy client was only trying to access idle desktop PCs helliprdquo

My answer At first sight it looks complicated You only have to think about a door-lock to realize there are many factors The lock-maker has a responsibility that it works and that keys are rea-sonably unique The lock-installer has a responsibility The lock-user has a responsibility If the door separates a public area from a private area then even trying the handle is a hint that the intruder has bad intent But if you were in the jury before you used the lsquotrying the han-dlersquo fact to influence your judgement yoursquod probably want to know that no reasonable person could fail to know that this particular door is an entry to a private area

But actually itrsquos simple The bad guys are the ones who build and distribute malware tools and the people who use those tools The rest of us have a professional responsibility to know our choice of equipment configuration installation and use is not negligent If wersquove been negligent there will be consequences But none of these consequences should reduce the blame directed at the bad guys

Ignorance of the consequences of launching malware is not a shield from blame Unless you are working with the good guys stop check-ing if other peoplersquos doors are locked

37 CAN SMART CITY GET EVEN SMARTER


Can Smart City Get Even Smarter

by Iain Galloway Engineer Technology Strategy NXP

This yearrsquos Smart City Challenge launched by the US DOT to spur a new wave of innovation proved that no major city is alone in its quest for improved mobility Iain Galloway from NXP Semiconductors explores what may be coming to a smart(er) city near you

At South by Southwest 2016 the US Department of Trans-portation announced their Smart City Challenge (SCC) contest calling upon cities around the country to convene entire ecosys-tems to develop the most innovative productive use of $50M dollars awarded to the winning proposal

When the contest came to my attention my initial thoughts of a Smart City were science fiction images of a gleaming city of the future full of flying cars autonomous shuttles and automat-ed payment systems creating an idyllic place to live and work But thatrsquos not reality is it It should be no surprise that the win-ning city Columbus Ohio outlines their vision not in terms of the flashy technology but by the goals of a city that is ldquohealthy prosperous and beautiful and to see that vision grow through access to jobs sustainable transportation smart logistics con-nected citizens and connected visitorsrdquo

Cities endure over time in an environment of boom and bust cycles economic disparity prosperity and hardship constantly changing demographics and challenging politics Given this

reality we strive for what can be done within fiscal constraints Winning the challenge alleviates some of those constraints and allows for a leap forward in attaining those planning goals par-ticularly when the city is able to leverage millions of additional dollars through technology partnerships

Why Smart City Many cities already have systems that are incredibly connect-

ed and smart We donrsquot often hear about it but most large cities have hundreds of miles of fiber optics in place video monitoring of intersections complex systems that drive our commuter traf-fic and public transit Smart card payment systems are available for public transit And increasingly citywide software and apps that help convey traffic transportation and activities to their citizens This is the work of municipal willpower partnering with smart companies bringing new ideas to life through tech-nology (Figure 1)

This funded leap forward working with new technology al-

Figure 1 Increasingly citywide software and apps help convey traffic transportation and activities to their citizens This is the work of municipal willpower partnering with smart companies bringing new ideas to life through technology within the smart city


lows for implementation of advances like an intelligent corridor infrastructure system which can help change city commuter patterns for the better Better so that 80 percent of commuter traffic is no longer from single-occupancy vehicles so that last mile commutes are by e-bicycles or electric micro busses and public transit safety is enhanced with pedestrian-detecting vision processing sensors

The Road to Smarter Cities May be Paved by Whatrsquos Already Possible

People adapt surprisingly quickly to change Today we are quite comfortable with the incredible GPS systems that allow us to fearlessly navigate cross-country never having to worry about getting lost We also donrsquot think much about traffic systems that coordinate lights based on observed traffic patterns or the idea that your mobile phone can communicate with any computer in the world including your vehicle We see sparks of innovation from companies morphing from things like lsquosimple GPSrsquo into vehicles with augmented driving assistance or autonomous driving We will inevitably also see electric people movers that you can hail with a press a button or not with the press a button but that have just maneuvered independently and are already waiting anticipating picking you up

One of the new technologies quickly coming into play is Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2X) radio communication Known as Dedicated Short Range Com-

munications or DSRC radio it allows communications directly between your vehicle and other things like police emergency vehicles traffic lights and overhead signage What it enables are advances like a standardized method for an extra-long bus to communicate with traffic signals platooning of multiple semi-autonomous vehicles together to save fuel and real-time traffic monitoring and messaging By connecting this new real-time V2X data source to city infrastructure systems deep learning programs can optimize traffic flows between different modes of transportation and help city planners make data-driv-en decisions

Enhancing public safety is another focus of DSRC Think of what happens today when you hear the wail of a siren in downtown traffic itrsquos not a smooth process as drivers try to determine where the sound is coming from and exactly what they should do Imagine instead a pop-up warning message on your dashboard display and on overhead roadway signs ahead alerting you (with plenty of advance notice) ldquoThere is an ambulance behind you pull over now and wait seven minutesrdquo Imagine the marvelous sight of a completely clear path forming for the ambulance to safely get to its destination without all the confusion And while this scenario may seem futuristic General Motors Mercedes Benz and others are adding 80211P DSRC ra-dios to select 2017 model vehicles Like so many things in tech we may not have to wait long before it proliferates and become ubiquitous (Figure 2)

Figure 2 General Motors Mercedes Benz and others are adding vehicle-to-vehicle protocol such as 80211P DSRC radios to select 2017 model vehicles This would allow vehicles to receive information of emergency vehicles such as patrol cars or ambulance is approaching so the road can be cleared ahead of time


This same DSRC technology can also be quickly retrofitted into commercial vehicles and even help with pedestrian traffic This means better control of traffic lights responding to emer-gency vehicles The disabled or groups of schoolchildren can use a small RFID tag in their backpack that communicates with traffic lights signaling to nearby cars to be additionally cautious

Data-driven Decision Making is the Key to Making Cities Smarter

All this connectivity generates data and data-driven deci-sion making is a smart way to operate a city We might also see experiments which provide invaluable data to city planners For example 80000 people attending a concert can have a dispos-able UCODE RFID tag embedded in their ticket With this type of real-time data following a large event a city can understand the movement of pedestrians to better position and schedule public transit and adjust traffic signaling around the concert arena These sorts of data experiments do need to address priva-cy concerns and the idea of potentially tracking 80000 people may not sit well with some even when well executed and the tag is made secure and decoupled from the individual themselves

RFID and NFC-enabled devices also help with parking woes Circulating vehicles in search of parking in cities may represent as much as 20-40 percent of the traffic on the streets This is wasted time and causes frustration unnecessary pollution and potentially economic loss to the city Smart cards and easy-to-use multimodal systems will ease the burden but there will always continue to be the need to actually find available parking in the city Systems exist now for parking garages which use ultrasonic sensors that indicate with red and green lights and overhead signage available parking spaces New companies like Fybr are able to provide similar parking management curbside with sensors embedded into the pavement and also communi-cate this information back into the V2X infrastructure When these parking systems are coupled with the citywide infrastruc-ture this street and garage parking information can be sent directly to your carrsquos navigation system You might even be able to reserve the space while you circle around the block Artificial intelligence software can use the same real-time data to suggest an alternative approach to parking and offer alternative efficient parking-plus-public transportation options When you get to a garage RFID in the license plate or window can take care of automated payment In the case of commercial vehicle delivery access it can also be used for authorization and authentication of the vehicle

Today we have easily connected internet devices low-cost embedded computing and cloud infrastructure and can consider the idea of ldquobig datardquo for everyone The DOTrsquos Smart Cities Challenge proposals all included the idea of Open Data centers in order to ultimately drive innovative Urban Analytics with new sources of information Urban Analytics leads not only to smart decisions on infrastructure spending but also to decisions impacting other activities like freight and logistics services which impacts traffic flow around ports and business


delivery street access vs parking We might not stop to appre-ciate the many ways location-aware data and mapping systems like Google Maps have changed how we interact with our world And Irsquom not talking about the inhabitation of location-appro-priate Pokeacutemon creatures but rather how it changes the way we navigate and find the restaurants events and things that we want to buy see and do

A continuation of foundationally good workAs Columbus puts it ldquoA prosperous city connects workers to

jobs and employers to workers gets goods to market supports world-class institutions and provides reliable travel options affordable to a range of household budgetsrdquo Cities have a diverse population to support and serve The issue of economic disparity needs to be taken very seriously Transportation is a keystone to peoplersquos lives everywhere but particularly high stakes in poorer neighborhoods Being able to get to a job to a doctorrsquos appointment to school or training this is what enhances the city of the future - fair opportunity Neighborhoods can improve economically by making transportation more accessible One idea is to provide secure multipurpose smartcards or apps that work seamlessly for public transportation across multiple modes of transportation busses subways e-bikes electric-on-demand people movers remote parking lots and ride sharing The ease of transition from one mode to another and the focused travel card assures people movement from home to work to recreation and learning

The proposals of the Smart City Challenge finalists are not a new start but an acceleration of their blueprints and continu-ation of the work done to address the many difficult challenges our cities and society as a whole face every day It is encouraging for us to take this jump closer to the smart city of the future where new technology hard work and political willpower strives to create an even better safer cleaner and more prosper-ous place to live and work

IntroductionCisco is the largest networking company in the world with

annual revenue of $49 billion Much like the PC market a few years ago hardware costs are coming down and competitors everywhere are trying to gain market share At the high-end there are HP Palo Alto Networks and Alcatel-Lucent SA while Chinese companies like ZTE and Huawei are working hard to compete on low cost networking hardware Cisco is trying to transition from being a networking hardware provider to an all-in-one IIoT Solution Provider

The Cisco FormulaTo solve problems in other segments such as manufactur-

ing Cisco partners with Rockwell a manufacturing expert to provide a complete IIoT ldquosmart manufacturingrdquo solution This is Ciscorsquos IT (information technology) plus OT (operation technology) formula By teaming up with other OT experts in various fields Cisco can solve problems in Manufacturing In-dustrial Automation Smart Cities Smart Building Healthcare Connected Automotive Oil and Energy Smart Grid and the list goes on Cisco continues to invest internally and external-ly to build up its strength In March of 2016 Cisco acquired Jasper a provider of global cloud-based Internet of Things (IoT) service platform Its platform services are used by more than 27 mobile operator groups and 2700 companies including GE Coca-Cola and Amazon This new addition allows Cisco to expand its IIoT services to enterprises service providers and its entire ecosystem

While Cisco offers IIoT solutions in almost every industrial segment it has highlighted three major applications with its new product offerings in Connect Machines Connected Fac-tory and the LoRaWAN Ciscorsquos main goal is to help customer create value using IIoT as a tool

ldquoCisco has a significant growth opportunity in helping our

Cisco Emerges as an IIoT Power House

customerrsquos transform their IoT data into business value We are delivering an end-to-end IoT solution built on secure connec-tivity service management and data delivery to cloud appli-cationsrdquo commented John Reno IoT product and solutions marketing at Cisco ldquoCustomers in segments such as manu-facturing transportation and energy have worked with our ecosystem partners to achieve important results ranging from improved overall equipment effectiveness to new customer servicesrdquo

40 COMPANY PROFILE

Cisco is a company in transition It is positioning to be an IIoT end-to-end solution provider with its full line of networking software and hardware products along with partners in almost every industry segment including Rockwell Automation GE Fanuc Robotics Siemens Emerson Honeywell ABB Cablevision Actility and more What is Ciscorsquos gold-hunting formula


Figure 1 Connected machines increase productivity in smart manufacturing Currently 92 of the 64 million machines are not connected These offer vast opportunities to companies who provide solutions in this area

Connected machineCisco promotes the idea of Industrial Transformation using

IoT in which everything will be connected monitored and managed to produce the optimal results with lower costs Smart manufacturing builds on connected machines and factories The performance of machines will be monitored continually in real-time and early warning will be provided if a machine is about to shut down before it actually occurs Preventive maintenance is an important contribution of IIoT because it can avoid a production line shutdown These ma-chines (devices) can be connected securely and machine data can be transferred in real-time so management can manage and act instantly The connected machine (Figure 1) approach will provide machine and tool makers to grow their business with the help of Cisco A true partnership

Connected FactoryTo support the connected factory Cisco has recently

introduced the new industrial switches IE4010 and IE1000 along with enhancement to the industrial security appliance ISA3000 The IE4010 is a 24 port multi-gigabit ruggedized switch with the capability of in-line power over Ethernet (PoE) while the IE1000 is an eight port version while ISA3000 enables the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) Figure 2 These solutions also provide surveillance security using IP cameras throughout the factory

Here is an example how Cisco adds value to its partner Mazak Corporation is a machine and tool company that want-ed to provide their end customers products with IIoT capabil-ity Working with Cisco Mazak was able to develop the Mazak SmartBox technology Figure 3 The application needed to run on the factory connecting to the network backbone Real-time analytics were required to handle data on high frequency vi-bration temperature coolant and sound input The data would be processed to deliver optimal machine performance In this solution Cisco Industrial Ethernet 4000 (IE4000) switch along with the Cisco Connected Streaming Analytics and other soft-ware were used As a result Mazak is able to offer its custom-ers a connected machine service a new revenue opportunity

LoRaWAN solutionCisco is a strong supporter of the LoRa Alliance a non-prof-

it organization focuses on developing the low power wide area network (LPWAN) specification Its data rate is from 03 to 50 kbps perfect for transactions involves infrequent small packets and it can be very low cost A battery powered device would be able to work for 10 years without battery replace-ment Applications include assets tracking like a moving truck transportation equipment used in the factories as well as in supply chain management smart buildings metering and irrigation management ldquoWe are seeing dramatic growth in a new class of IoT sensors that require low power and low cost secure connectivity LoRa is enabling new services for a whole host of IoT applications LoRarsquos ability to communicate

CEO Profile Chuck Robbins is the Chief Executive Officer of Cisco

and a member of its Board of Directors He assumed the role on July 26 2015

As CEO Chuck leads an Executive Leadership Team focused on Ciscorsquos vision to change the way the world works lives plays and learns Under his leadership Cisco is empowering its customers to create and deliver value as every country city and company becomes digital

Chuck joined Cisco in 1997 as an account manager and quickly advanced to the roles of regional manager and operations director Prior to joining Cisco he held management positions at Bay Networks and Ascend Communications

without draining excessive power makes it ideal for smart city and industrial asset monitoring and management use casesrdquo commented Vikas Butaney General Manager IoT Systems and Solutions of Cisco ldquoThis extends the lifetime of those devices and makes them viable to deploy at a large scale Cisco is in-credibly excited about the possibilities of LoRa and the growth of the LoRa partner ecosystem led by the LoRa Alliancerdquo

Analytic and Data ServicesAnalytic and Data Services are crucial to the success of

IIoT implementation Simply sending raw data to the cloud or connected devices has no real value unless the data is consumed in a meaningful way Getting the insight is the key Ciscorsquos solution is to help customers get that insight via cloud data and edge product management For example as in the case of an oil and gas offshore drilling platform application the goal of the customer is to obtain optimal performance from each well There is no value to send the raw data of measuring temperature vibration and moisture of each well every second to the server via the cloud The big question is what to do with all the data generated Where is the insight The better approach will be to process the raw data by the edge products such as using an intelligent Cisco router and run the analytic per well onsite Then send the results to the server Another meaningful insight will be to compare the results of each well and from that data determine the parameters of a high performance well By doing this Cisco will be able to help customers to achieve the best performance In June of 2016

Cisco joined force with the IBM Watson team to further the insight capability ldquoThe way we experience and interact with the physical world is being transformed by the power of cloud computing and the Internet of Thingsrdquo said Harriet Green General Manager IBM Watson IoT Commerce amp Education ldquoFor an oil rig in a remote location or a factory where critical decisions have to be taken immediately uploading all data to the cloud is not always the best option By coming together IBM and Cisco are taking these powerful IoT technologies the last mile extending Watson IoT from the cloud to the edge of computer networks helping to make these strong analytics capabilities available virtually everywhere alwaysrdquo Addition-ally in June of 2016 Cisco added another tool Cisco Tetration AnalyticsTM Platform to help customers gain visibility of the performance of operations in real-time

How does Fog computing fit inIn a simple case cloud computing will be able to provide all

the computing and storage needs one desires But as the IIoT application complexity increases cloud computing may not be able to meet demands This is where Fog Computing comes in The name Fog was developed as it resides between the Cloud and the ground Recently the Open Fog Consortium (Open-Fog) was established with the cooperation of Cisco Dell Intel Microsoft ARM and Princeton University Part of Ciscorsquos IIoT strategy is to promote Open Fog To implement Fog Comput-ing local networking devices with computing power will be implemented This will potentially help Cisco with future sales

Figure 2 The IE4010 and IE1000 industrial switches are among the new Cisco products introduced in the Connected Factory solutions These secured end-to-end connections also provide surveillance capability using IP cameras

41 MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS ARE KEY TO NETWORK EDGE DESIGN

Mobile Communications Are Key to Network Edge Design

by Steve Gudknecht Elma Electronic Inc

Mobile networking needs solutions tailored for their operating environments yet most mobile applications have severe space and power limitations These can pose design challenges for even the best enclosure suppliers This article discusses ways to overcome them

As the Internet-of-Things (IoT) continues to expand to all aspects of life it becomes apparent that many functions normal-ly required at the core of the network are now necessary at the outer edges of the network When the requirement of mobility at the end points is added it becomes necessary to use networking solutions that address key areas of network traffic management This is especially true for mobile users who operate beyond the reach of a fixed network infrastructure but still need the ability to share information at the local level and to do so knowing that data security is tantamount

It is equally necessary to work with solutions partners who provide a strong mechanical foundation to build products for

use in often rugged environments found at the network edge First responderrsquos communications gear in disaster recovery mining and transportation equipment are a few examples of ap-plications that need communication capabilities that can survive in severe conditions

So where does one start in evaluating the building blocks for these mobile networking solutions

Two Top Level Keys to SuccessThe first key is to include underlying networking protocol

solutions from a supplier who leads the industry in not only the basic networking capabilities that all IT professionals look for but who also understands the critical demands of mobile secure


networking and is a proven leader in the fast-emerging IoT arena One such supplier is Cisco with their Embedded Services Routers (ESRs) All ESR products run Cisco IOS software and support Ciscorsquos Mobile Ready Net platform of protocols used for secure and seamless information sharing between mobile users

The second key to success is in packaging these networking functions in a chassis built to survive the environmental rigors found in demanding applications where edge equipment may be deployed Extreme environmental factors such as high shock vibration temperature and ingress protection are important considerations in computer designs Size weight and power are common considerations for mobile products so working with packaging designers with proven experience is a must Cisco partners like Elma Electronic design computing platforms for use in mobile environments This effort requires unique skills beyond simply mounting a board in a box and wiring the connectors The CISCO ESR board requires a dedicated custom designed module to bring out the IO so integrators must be capable of support-ing this in addition to having the ability to package for the end environment For post-sale support of the system the integrator must offer a method to handle reported issues This includes the ability to duplicate a reported issue on Cisco qualified platforms custom-built for troubleshooting and simulation

Mobility with Guaranteed Connectivity Expanding on some of the protocols supported by Ciscorsquos

Mobile Ready Net platform helps better understand and high-light its capabilities mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) Ciscoreg Radio Aware Routing (RAR) and Dynamic Link Exchange Protocol (DLEP)

MANET is a key protocol required for mobile devices that need to join self-forming self-healing clusters made up of mobile routers and nodes communicating over wireless links A node is generally anything that moves ndash ground vehicles

aircraft watercraft even humans on foot In disaster recovery operations mining operations and other applications with mo-bile assets networks frequently need to be set up on the fly Such network nodes move randomly and form arbitrary topologies that can change rapidly and often need to operate outside of a fixed network infrastructure Ciscorsquos twist on MANET includes enhancements to the Open Shortest Path First Protocol version 3 (OSPFv3) standard Those enhancements improve performance and reduce protocol overhead resulting in faster more efficient and seamless network changes and link exchanges

Radio Aware RoutingTo ensure effective integration of router and radio networks

this protocol enables routers and radios to share link-quality metrics and neighbor status Based on the industryrsquos first router implementation of RFC 4938bis it defines a cross-layer signal-ing mechanism between routers and radios The overarching goal of RAR is to deliver sensitive network traffic to high priority users as quickly and as efficiently as possible without delay or signal breakup A subset of RAR is another protocol called Dynamic Link Exchange Protocol or DLEP This provides seamless real-time link exchange or changeover where link speed or link quality makes it necessary to switch data paths to use the fastest most reliable link available DLEP monitors 5 metrics maximum and current link speed link quality latency and battery power

Mobility with SecurityCritical communications means therersquos no shortage of security

protocols IOS provides encryption support including Suite-B-GCM-128 Suite-B-GCM-256 Suite-B-GMAC-128 and Suite-B-GMAC-256 Secure collaborative communications and threat control are included in Ciscorsquos IOS Suite Managed endpoint identity plus a host of additional security protocols supported by

Figure 1 Expandable package designs and tailored IO integration enable a wide range of quick turn solutions


is intended to run IOS software on Linux-based platforms and is form factor agnostic The 5921 requires a minimum of three Gigabit Ethernet ports plus at least a dual core CPU to han-dle the protocol stack Figure 2 shows a full-featured system incorporating software based Cisco Mobile IP routing in a small box intended for rugged industrial vehicular applications The system adds Wi-Fi and CANbus features with Core i5 i7 CPU options Figure 2

ConclusionPredictions of vast efficiency and reliability improvements in

disaster recovery homeland security energy exploration man-ufacturing transportation and health cares are driving demand for connectivity of ldquothingsrdquo Mobile assets make up a large list of things requiring guaranteed network access especially in challenging situations To meet these demands suppliers must work together to create end products that reflect the best of their individual capabilities in order to meet the needs of the various target markets regardless of the end use environment Successful products in the new IoT and IoE world order will be the result of a combination of the right functionality supported by partners like Elma with tailored packaging designed to bring that func-tionality to the places where itrsquos needed most

Cisco IOS round out one of the best such suites available

Toughness and SizeTargeted packaging for the end environment Mobile routing equipment needs to operate in environmen-

tally hostile installations - no longer is networking equipment confined to the central office or a server router farms where +5degC to +40degC is the norm and where shock and vibration mitigation is handled at the rack or room level Rack-mounted equipment in the central office has comparatively generous amounts space for powerful airflow systems and air condition-ing that provide optimized environments Mobile networking needs solutions tailored for their operating environments yet has severe space limitations and scarce available power along with harsh operating environments These limitations can pose design challenges for enclosure suppliers yet a few are up to the task System designers can satisfy these often conflicting re-quirements by designing computer platforms that use the latest thermal design imaging techniques

The ldquoBig Fiverdquo environmental considerations include shock vibration thermal altitude and humidity Depending on the application systems may be required to operate over a -40degC to +75degC temp range with operating shock that exceeds 40Gs IP65 or higher levels for ingress protection against dust and water are commonly required Not all applications used in the IoT revo-lution require such packaging Cisco packaging partners offer custom and off-the-shelf enclosure solutions that span a wide range of designs from lite industrial to ultra-rugged

Built to Fit the Space AllowedSometimes applications can use an off-the-shelf solution

others need to fill a specific space and therefore need a custom enclosure Yet others need to add their own applications into the solution ndash perhaps adding more computing or IO along-side the router function Such additions may necessitate future expansion Packaging designs that conquer size weight and power constraints that are modular and expandable with multi-ple mounting options can be cost savers when it comes time to upgrade or reconfigure as an application evolves Elma Electron-ic has developed a line of PCI104 based Cisco routing chassis which address a wide range of environmental demands while offering an expandable design to easily add features needed for specific applications Figure 1

Cisco offers its partners hardware and software options for packaging mobile routing These enable a wide range of pack-aging designs Ciscorsquos 5915 is PCI104 based and provides three switching and two IP routing ports Several manufacturers have developed PCI104 systems around the 5915 Others take advan-tage of the stackable architecture of PCI104 and add computing and additional Ethernet ports or storage for more full-featured systems Cisco and other suppliers offer PCI104 Ethernet prod-ucts that can add 26 or more ports to a system Most PCI104 SBCs are used for the computing power

Ultimate flexibility in packaging however is achieved via software implementation of the routing features Ciscorsquos 5921

Figure 1 Ciscorsquos Linux-based software router opens the door to custom packaging designs suitable for any deployed space
