The rapid growth of telecommunication technology has led to the development of many smart devices. In particular, the smartphone market has been growing rapidly following the development of third-generation telecommunication technology. As a result, most people are expected to use a smartphone within a few years. Furthermore, the market for smart devices such as tablets and smart TVs are growin...

Lifecycle management enables enterprises to manage their products, services and product-service bundles. IoT and CPS have made products and services smarter by closing the loop of data across different phases of lifecycle. Similarly, CPS and IoT empower cities with real-time data streams from heterogeneous objects. Yet, cities are smarter and more powerful when relevant data can be exchanged be...

In Business-Ökosystemen werden Werte geschaffen, die Unternehmen alleine nicht generieren können. Bei der Umsetzung von Smart Services in smarten Fabrik müssen heterogene Ressourcen vernetzt werden. Dies erfordert Kooperation aller an Datenwertschöpfung beteiligten Akteure Datengenerierung bis zur Datennutzung. diesem Beitrag Hemmnisse und Anforderungen kooperative identifiziert. Business ecosy...

Internet of Things (IoT) approach is empowering smart city creativities all over the world. There is no specific tool or criteria for the evaluation of the services offered by the smart city. In this paper, a new Multilayer Fuzzy Inference System (MFIS) is proposed for the assessment of the Planet Factors of smart city (PFSC). The PFSC system is categorized into two levels. The proposed MFIS ba...

Smart services have potential to improve value creation and profitability of industrial firms and their customers. Defined as services that go beyond the upkeep and upgrades, traditionally bundled with products and helping companies to build intelligence— that is, awareness and connectivity. Combined with digitalization, services have had a major role in improving efficiency of existing offerin...

This article proposes an integration of Smart Cards into an environment controlled by a Residential Gateway. In a common scenario, the Residential Gateway offers services with different characteristics. Some services belong to profiles of a user and thus these services have a mobile behavior. As a consequence, these profile-related and thus user-specific services are configured via a Smart Card...

Big data plays an important role in smart city. Big data analytics is one of the recent technologies that could enhance smart city services. It provides valuable insights from massive volume of data collected through various sources. The combination of big data and Internet of Things (IoT) supports urban decision makers and provides better services to the citizens. This paper is focused on revi...

Smart sensors densely distributed over structures can use their computational and wireless communication capabilities to provide rich information for structural health monitoring (SHM). Though smart sensor technology has seen substantial advances during recent years, implementation of smart sensors on full-scale structures has been limited. While users often postulate that wired sensing systems...
