Control Engineering Information Integration and IIoT Webcast
Thursday, December 3, 2015 at 11 a.m. PT/1 p.m. CT/2 p.m. ET
One (1) Certified Professional Development Hour (PDH) available for all attendees.
Information integration ensures that the right information gets to the right persons, automated systems and devices in time to make the right decisions. Implementers of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Industrie 4.0 platforms understand that effective information integration is required for intelligent and highly competitive manufacturing. An exam will be available to earn a Professional Development Hour (PDH).
Learning objectives:
1. Learn how to determine what information from automated systems is available and where it should flow.
2. Understand which open standards help promote interoperability and security, as part of an IIoT platform.
3. Discover how real-time capabilities, interoperability, and modularity can be integrated, as part of the Industrie 4.0 platform, to make manufacturers more competitive?
4. Gain strategies to help you prioritize higher levels of spending with adoption of IIoT and Industry 4.0 strategies, to make manufacturers more competitive?
5. Review key findings related to IIoT, Industry 4.0, and information integration, according to Control Engineering research.
