2. Write the differences between Industry 4.0 and IIoT.
Features Industry 4.0 IIoT
Initiative German government initiative GE termed it as industrial
(also known as Fourth Industrial Internet, while CISCO termed it as
Revolution). Internet of Everything. The IIC
recognizes IIoT.
Primary focus Manufacturing Industry. Both manufacturing and
nonmanufacturing industries.
Objective To secure a competitive position To enable and accelerate the
in a dynamic market. Internet-enabled technologies
across industries.
Description Economic impact Technological development.
Effect Less advantageous in the long Advantageous in the long run.
run.
4. What is the industrial internet? What are the main catalysts behind
the industrial internet?
Answer:
Industrial Internet is the convergence of the global industrial systems
with the power of advanced computing, analytics, low-cost sensing,
and new levels of connectivity permitted by the Internet.
The catalysts behind the development of Industrial Internet are as
follows:
(a) The investment in the deployment of sensor nodes, required
instruments, business processes, and updated user application
interfaces will promote the development of new technologies.
(b) The security of sensitive information, data, and intellectual
property (IP) requires a robust security system.
(c) To instigate the growth of new talents such as advanced
engineering studies, data scientists, and software experts
promote industrial development.
6. What is a smart product?
Answer:
Industry 4.0 comprises various technologies such as CPS,
Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), IoT, and
cloud-based data integration to help human beings and things to
communicate among themselves. These advanced technologies,
along with smart sensor nodes, form the smart product.
8. What is a Cyber-Physical System (CPS)? What are the primary
constituents of mobile CPS?
Answer:
The overall incorporation of the different advanced technologies in
the field of computation, networking, and physical processes, with the
integration of Internet connectivity among the processes. These
systems operate and interact with the physical world in real-time. The
components of CPS are developed by human beings, which include
processing, communication, and information control.
10. Write the differences between IoT and IIoT.
Features IoT IIoT
Focus Devices are developed for the Devices are developed for the
well-being of individuals. improvement of efficiency, safety,
and security in industries.
Interoperability M2M communication is possible M2M communication, SCADA,
on a small scale. and other manufacturing
technologies are applicable on a
large scale.
Scalability Applicable on a small scale, Applicable in large scale networks,
compared to IIoT, where things where seamless integration of
are interconnected through the devices are done in the industrial
Internet. networks and IoT devices.
Automation IoT devices sense, process, and IoT devices require control and
transmit data with limited or no automation logic, deep learning,
human involvement. and analytics.
Emergency In case any device fails, an Failure of any device may lead to
situations emergency situation will not a critical situation.
occur.
Application Consumer purpose. Industrial purpose.
