TS09 The Benefits of IoT in Manufacturing 1 hour

Manufacturing and Industrial operations will change more profoundly in the next five years than they have in the past 20. They are becoming connected. While this has been the dream for decades, the technology to make it possible was historically prohibitively expensive. The Internet of Things and other enabling technologies are changing that. We are at an inflection point and The Connected Enterprise helps manufacturers capitalize on the promise of an ever more connected world in the form of higher manufacturing velocity, more agile response to changing conditions, reduced costs and lowered risk. To realize the benefits of The Connected Enterprise, intelligent devices need to be easily connected and integrated in order to build smarter machines, which build smarter manufacturing and more intelligent operations. By doing this through a phased approach will allow you to leverage your existing automation assets while preparing for the next generation of integrated control and information innovations.

TS10 The Importance of Standards in Smart Manufacturing and The Connected Enterprise 1 hour

It’s difficult to imagine a world without industry standards. They ensure that the road signs we see while driving all mean the same thing, or that when we make calls on our mobile phones that it doesn’t matter who the vendor is on the other phone. Well standards are just as important in manufacturing. Industry standards are developed and issued by groups or associations of professionals in various fields of experience. They typically provide specifications, best practices, and guidelines that can help define the characteristics of a product, process or service. Network communications or functional safety are examples of standards disciplines. Following standards helps simplify selection and deployment of products, and promotes seamless interoperability among multiple devices used in manufacturing systems, regardless of who manufactured those devices. In this session you’ll learn about some of the industry standards that will impact us all as we drive to The Connected Enterprise.

TS11 Running Your Application in the Cloud 1 hour

In this introductory session, you will learn about what it takes at a very generic level to run your application in the cloud.
