 Why now?

Driving the OT – IT Convergence:

Low cost, powerful technology

• Cheap sensors & devices
• Low-cost processing power, data storage
Connected everything
• By 2020, the number of things connected to the internet will be
approximately 7x the number of people on earth today.
Big Data
• Collecting, storing and analyzing data is now more cost effective
Smarter Machines
• Equipment is increasingly embedded with sensors & software

Safety: IIoT & Smart Wearables
23,000 on-the-job injuries in US, $192 BN impact on economy
(www.epi.org)

OSHA performs 31,948 inspections per year; 74% result in penalties

(Source: OSHA)

Cost of penalties in US last year: $259M (Source: OSHA)

Increased by 80% in 2016

Benefits of investing in safety: (Source: Safety and Health Magazine – May 2014)
• Schneider Electric reduced injury rate from 3.6 injuries/100 workers to .5
injuries/100 workers= $15M annual savings.
• Airgas spent $181.5K on safety program= $907K annual savings
• Heartland Food dropped injury rate from 285 per year to 14= $11.653M annually

• With: Avnu, Calnex, ISW, Ixia, OPC Foundation, Phoenix Contact
Market Segment:
• Manufacturing – with a vision to be useful in a wide range of applications, including Utilities, Transportation
and Oil and Gas.
Goals:
• To support real-time control and synchronization of high performance machines over a single, standard
Ethernet network, supporting multi-vendor interoperability and integration.
Features & Commercial Benefits:
• TSN will open up critical control applications such as robot control, drive control and vision systems to the
Industrial Internet.
• This connectivity then enables customers, suppliers and vendors to more readily access data from these
systems and to apply preventative maintenance and optimization routines to these systems. 22

Connectivity Framework: http://www.iiconsortium.org/IICF.htm

Edge Definitions:
Edge: a logical layer consisting of the IIoT system devices, sensors,
actuators nodes, gateways and components of the functional domains
deployed therein.
Edge Computing: All computation, storage, communications, and
processing associated with collecting, transforming and acting upon
information captured from the Edge, or transmitted to the Edge.
Use Cases:
EC Task Group is working on Smart Grid, Automotive, Power
Generation, Smart Buildings/Elevators, AR/VR, Healthcare…

 Blockchain for IoT
• Distributed ledger behind cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin
• Provides tamper resistant record of sensor data
• Decentralized architecture & horizontally secure data sharing among edge
nodes.
• Every legitimate node is registered on the blockchain, devices will identify and
authenticate each other without central brokers or certification authorities, and
the network will support billions of devices without needing additional resources.
• Smart manufacturing
– Value chain, different information in different systems
– Horizontal data integration & security of data
• Smart City
– Numerous edge nodes, lights, pipes, meters
– Store and secure data. Historical data tracked
– Better predictive maintenance and energy
efficiency management

 Interoperability

Both commercial
and open-source
software
implementations of
DDS are available.
These include APIs
and libraries of
implementations in
Ada, C, C++, C#, The bottom layer consists of two or more different
Java, Scala, Lua, devices, each using their own version of an
operating system. When we add middleware,
Pharo and Ruby those different devices can now communicate and
use the same application, even though they use
different operating systems.
 The Future
How will we reduce jet engine How will we reduce waste How will we save lives
failure & maintenance costs? of natural resources? through better patient care?

Things are coming together.

How will we reduce How will we minimize

passenger fatalities? unplanned factory downtime?
