By Pramit Kumar Gone are the days when supercomputing meant big, rack-based systems in an air conditioned room. Today, embedded processors, FPGAs and GPUs are able to do AI and machine learning operations, enabling new types of local decision making in embedded systems. Embedded computing technology has evolved way past the point now where complete system functionality on a single chip is remarkable. Today, the levels of compute performance and parallel processing on an IC means that what were once supercomputing levels of capabilities can now be implemented in in chip-level solutions. read more... |
By Mohammad Rameez Sensors play an important role in the automobile manufacturing industry. In this article, we discuss the different sensors that are used in the modern car. Modern cars make thousands of decisions based on the data provided by various sensors that are interfaced to the vehicles’ onboard computer systems. A car engine management system consists of a wide range of sensor devices working together, including engine sensors, relays and actuators. Many of these sensors operate in rough and harsh conditions that involve extreme temperatures, vibrations and exposure to environmental contaminants. Yet, these provide vital data parameters to the electronic control unit (ECU) that governs the various engine functions effectively. read more... |

By Danish Wadhwa As a concept, Big Data asserts that more data is being collected at a faster rate than before, but this concept is more than just the volume of data. Big Data provides a complete picture of the data’s value and of the actionable process feedback or of equipment to monitor. When it comes to traditional data storage and analytics tools, they are not designed to process the huge amount of data and cannot manage the speed with which it is being collected. The use of Big Data has accelerated across industries, thanks to the growth of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) landscape, and the development of open-source data-handling tools read more... |
By Pramit Kumar Video has successfully evolved manifolds, specifically within the business domain The main reason apart from saving a lot on transit expenditure, video has successfully “personalized” the remote meetings. Video has answered the most prominent business challenges like managing distributed workforce, taking care of internal communications, faster and informed decision making and inculcating BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) to have a more flexible working hours. However, these are mostly relevant to the end users. Talking about the technological partners, video enabled solutions invokes incredible sale opportunities for them as well. The following discussion shows how can Service Providers be benefited from PeopleLink Solutions. read more... |
By Quah Mei Lee, Industry Principal - Telecoms & Payments Strategy, Digital Transformation [APAC], Frost & Sullivan Throughout Asia-Pacific, where smartphone penetration is the highest in the world, consistent progress by local governments toward cashless societies benefits the mobile payments market. Leading the cashless transformation within Asia Pacific are high-income developed nations such as South Korea, Australia and Singapore. Malaysia and China are still middle-income nations, but benefit from strong regulatory pressure coupled with rapidly growing payment-infrastructure should soon raise them to the ranks of high-income nations. read more... |
Early Rollout of 5G in Asia-Pacific Requires Careful Strategies from Mobile Network Operators and Strong Government/Regulator Support
By Quah Mei Lee, Industry Principal - Telecoms & Payments Strategy, Digital Transformation [APAC], Frost & Sullivan Initial focus on select markets and spectrum/network sharing to manage price points will expedite 5G take-off, finds Frost & Sullivan’s Digital Transformation teamKuala Lumpur, Malaysia – August 15, 2017 – The imminent rollout of 5G will transform the telecommunications industry in Asia-Pacific. As internet speeds go up and data costs come down, new industries will emerge and the playing field between mobile network operators (MNOs) and fixed broadband providers will level out. Justifying the high implementation costs of 5G in the developing world alongside 4G, where 4G is still growing from its current 10% penetration and demand for 5G services is finite or limited, will, however, prove a restraint. Fitting 5G efficiently into existing 2G/3G/4G MNO networks and services portfolios while managing customer migration will also be challenging. read more... |
By Yash Menghani Internet of Things (IoT) describes a system where items in the physical world, and sensors within or attached to these items, are connected to the Internet via wireless and wired Internet connections. These sensors can use various types of local area connections such as RFID, NFC, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Zigbee. Sensors can also have wide area connectivity such as GSM, GPRS, 3G, and LTE.Though IoT is the most discussed technology but it is not a new concept. With improved mobile and broadband connectivity over 50 billion devices will be connected by 2020. IoT will connect both motionless and living things, use sensors for data collection and change the kinds of things that will communicate over an IP network. Currently IoT is considered to communicate, control & automate and save costs read more... |
