Planet even before the campaign launch in 2008
INTELLIGENT
Leveraging the data generated
by digital technology provides
intelligence to help us do
things better, improving our
responsiveness
and ability to predict and
optimize for future events
INSTRUMENTED
Digital technologies
(sensors and other
monitoring devices) are
being embedded into
many objects, systems
and processes
INTERCONNECTED
In the globalized, networked
world, people, systems,
objects and processes are
connected, and they
are communicating with one
another in entirely new ways
10. Connected Car: Design optimized “Data Center on Wheels”
16M lines of code
70+ microprocessors
100’s of sensors
10+M lines of code
100 microprocessors
IBM has been working with
automobile manufacturers, Ford and
GM, and automobile parts supplier,
Continental, to develop the
“Connected Car”
- By 2020, 90% of new cars will
include vehicle software platforms …
up from 10% today
Cutting-edge innovations such as
car health monitoring, accident-avoidance
lasers, and smart parking
exist today. Wireless car-to-car
communications and city-wide traffic
control are on the horizon. Self-drive
cars are in the future.
Ford and GM used IBM’s Rational
software to design, code and
test their “Smarter Cars”
12. Smarter Healthcare: Provide a Safety Net for the Elderly
An initiative to enhance the quality
of life of the elderly, providing greater
independence and integration into
society, while lowering public spending
costs
- Home remote sensors to monitor
home environment (temperature,
CO2, water leaks, etc.)
- Home health monitoring via touch
screens and mobile devices saving
unnecessary trips to the doctor
Technological, but still human, system
of care via the remote “angels”
- IBM Sensors and Actuator support
- IBM WebSphere MQ Telemetry
Assisted Living Project

13. Smarter Healthcare: Early Detection of Medical Events
UOIT, Toronto’s Hospital for Sick Children
and IBM are collaborating in a first of a
kind project, based on IBM InfoSphere
Streams, that captures and analyzes vast
amounts of physiological data from
premature babies in Neonatal Intensive
Care Units, enabling early detection of
medical events.
IBM’s InfoSphere Streams on DB2
analyzes 1,200 vital signs per second to
help provide early warning of infection
Early detection leads to early intervention,
lower patient morbidity and better long
term outcomes.

21. Five Keys to tapping into IoT value
1. Connect to and control devices
2. Collect and manage IoT data
3. Understand and analyze
4. Act and react
5. Build applications to harness the potential
22. 1. Connect and Control Devices
• Thousands of devices, hundreds of vendors
• Proprietary and emerging protocols, lack of standards
• Legacy infrastructure of closed systems
• Different levels of capabilities in devices
• Different implementations
23. Reliably and quickly deliver IoT data with MQTT
MQTT
Open
Open royalty free spec
Wide variety of clients and servers
• Hobbyist to enterprise
• Open source to commercial
Lean
Minimized on-the-wire format
• Smallest packet size 2 bytes
Scalable
Low footprint
• Clients: C=30Kb; Java=100Kb
Simple
Reliable
Minimal pub/sub messaging
semantics
• Asynchronous (“push”)
delivery
• Simple set of verbs --
connect, publish, subscribe
and disconnect
Three qualities of service
• 0 – at most once delivery
• 1 – assured delivery dups ok
• 2 – once and once only delivery
Copes with loss of contact between client
and server.
• “Last will and testament” to publish a
message if the client goes offline.
