Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) also known as Cloud of Things refers to the inter-connection of uniquely identifiable embedded computing like devices within the existing Internet infrastructure. Example: Smart grid, heart monitoring implants, biochip transponders, automobiles with built-in sensors, or field operation devices. It is a network of functional tightly coupled system, using various technologies such as RFID, Zigbee, Bluetooth or 6LoWPAN. The Web of Things (WoT) is an evolution of the Internet of Things. A concept and plan to fully incorporate every-day physical objects into the World Wide Web, allowing us to build an application layer for physical objects. A Cyber-Physical System (CPS) is a globally connected WoT, bring embedded systems to the Web, i.e., aerospace, automotive, chemical processes, civil infrastructure, renewable energy, remote healthcare monitor, automated manufacturing, intelligent transportation, and consumer appliances. Several successful adaptation including collision avoidance; precision (e.g., robotic surgery and nano-level manufacturing); operation in dangerous or inaccessible environments (e.g., search and rescue, firefighting, and deep-sea exploration); coordination (e.g., air traffic control, war fighting). This talk presents new advances in science and engineering that has made improvement on the link between computational and physical elements, particularly in the area of autonomy, efficiency, functionality, reliability, safety, and usability of IoT and CPS. The talk will give a case study, namely a Smart Ship, moving away from manual operation to automated ship warehouse management.
