…independently created and used in different systems. To ensure interoperability, the engineers incorporate industry standard modular interfaces. The driving forces behind this approach lie in seemingly mutually exclusive demands. Industrial facilities seek machines tailored to accommodate the unique demands of their applications, such as size, operating speed and specialized features. At the same time, however, plant managers place a high value on flexibility. To further complicate machine makers’ tasks, customers want the machines immediately at the lowest possible price. To meet these demands, machinery companies turn to modular strategies, making sure each functional area of the machine can be customized…

…the IEEE Std 802.3bp and the Open Alliance 1000BASE-T1 Interoperability test suite specification. In addition, it performs an Alien Crosstalk Noise Rejection test, which saves hours with an automated test of IEEE and required OPEN Alliance compliance specifications, as well as the following: a wizard for quick setup, configuration and test; easy calibration of the test set up; quick interaction with DUT, as well as required receiver tests; and built on functional and multipurpose hardware, Keysight 81160A Arbitrary waveform generator, which can be fully used for other tasks and tests when not actively on. Keysight’s Automotive Ethernet solutions suite provides…

…Army is increasing readiness by strengthening its relationships and interoperability with business partners, like 3D Systems, who advance warfighter requirements at the best value to the taxpayer,” says Dr. Joseph South, ARL's program manager for Science of Additive Manufacturing for Next Generation Munitions. “Up until now, powder bed laser 3D printers have been too small, too slow, and too imprecise to produce major ground combat subsystems at scale. Our goal is to tackle this issue head-on with the support of allies and partners who aid the Army in executing security cooperation activities in support of common national interests, and who…

…why security is so important, cited a lack of interoperability as a sticking point and discussed a number of different technologies (AR, blockchain, AI) and how far they’ve come in the supply chain. Allen also talked about the circular economy (an economic system aimed at minimizing waste and maximizing resources) and discussed how “failure is learning” in the technology world, noting that “we should all be teaching the management chain that every failure puts you closer to success.” In his presentation on how AI is transforming the supply chain, Vineet Sinha of Johnson Controls discussed the complexity of the modern-day…

…IoT platform was recognized due to its level of interoperability and integration into existing structures. The jury evaluated the solutions presented according to differently weighted criteria. The concrete customer benefit was decisive with 25%, followed by compliance with standards and interoperability of the solution (19%). Platform suitability was weighted at 18%. Further criteria were investments in research and development as well as in customer communication. “The competition in the young field of IoT platforms is enormous,” says Stefan Gregorzik, product manager, Elements for IoT at CONTACT Software. “Therefore, this is a huge praise for our team. We are particularly happy…

…As a result, organizations are facing major challenges with interoperability between devices and machines that use different protocols and architecture. They’re often dealing with multiple vendors with multiple, disparate IoT hardware and sensor solutions. So how do you bring it all together? Establishing a common IoT platform for the data stream will allow multiple sensor technologies to communicate seamlessly; this is what Tapestry’s Enterprise Sensor Integration (ESI) is all about. Why is Enterprise Sensor Integration so Appealing? It all boils down to situational awareness: Manufacturing and supply chain operations want complete visibility of their enterprises, not spreadsheet reports. They need…
