According to Gartner estimates the objects connected to the Internet end of 2015 were more than 5 billion: smartphone, bracelets fitness, cars, small appliances, devices for industrial and home automation, sensors of all kinds. Each of these objects collects, analyzes and distributes an enormous amount of data: biometric, environmental, health, weather ...
THE MAGIC OF DATA. Vehicles connected, for example, by exchanging each other and with the road infrastructure, traffic information could contribute to the fluidity and safety.
Motorists could receive reports of traffic jams and slowdowns well in advance, while the display of the cars and informative signs may indicate an active smoother alternative routes.
In a similar manner the ongoing dialogue between intelligent electronic devices and counters could optimize the current flows so as to avoid overloading and channel the energy where the demand is higher.
To date only 10% of the data collected by the devices of the Internet of Things is actually used: the rest is pretty much lost. But as you can use a similar amount of information, which continues to grow and evolve one day after another?
THE NEW COMPUTER. The traditional IT approach, which involves processing data from predefined schemes and programs, does not apply to the Internet of Things: devices and sensors are in fact operating in dynamic contexts and poorly predictable and should change their behavior based the evolution of the environment.
An intelligent thermostat or a smart lighting system must take into account for example the temperature or the external brightness but also the presence or absence of people inside the premises.
A classical conception computer system is able to define custom calculations using standard scenarios and this rigidity does not allow him to make the most of potential data that evolve continuously and starting to grow old in the same moment in which they are registered.
