The newly launched event has established a partnership with the Industrial Internet Consortium (IIC), the sector’s leading association, who has advised in the design of the conference program. Among the topics discussed are Driving to a Zero Defect Strategy: IoT use in car production; Eliminating unplanned downtime in the Connected Factory; Improving Complex Patient Care through Big Data Analytics; The Connected Flight; The Internet of Energy; Interoperability in IoT: The role of standards; and IoT Weather forecasts to increase cross industry productivity.

“The IoT will allow us to visualize machine performance and prioritize maintenance actions by integrating data and analytics to deliver insights on the assets that drive our business,” states Reliabilityweb.com CEO and Uptime Magazine Publisher, Terrence O’Hanlon. “The IoT requires other things such as reliability frameworks like Uptime Elements combined with the full cycle of Plan, Do, Check, Act. The IoT also requires the (IoP) Internet of People. In other words at Reliabilityweb.com we say that the IoT is dependent upon the IoP.”

IOTSWC will feature keynotes from 100 top experts who will discuss the opportunities offered by IoT technology to such industries as manufacturing, transportation, logistics, energy & utilities and healthcare, as well as its transformative role in the economy. Among the confirmed speakers are Prith Banerjee, Managing Director of Global Technology Research and Development at Accenture; Michael Raynor, Director at Deloitte Services LP; Jonathan Ballon, VP and General Manager of IoT at Intel; and Richard M. Soley, Chairman and CEO of OMG and Executive Director of the Industrial Internet Consortium.
