Introduction to latest technologies such as IoT, IoE, IIoT,WoT

Hi Everyone,

Now-a-days, we are hearing terms such as IoT, IoE, IIoT, WoT. In this article i am trying to explain what exactly these terms means. 
Let me start with fancy word called IoT (Internet Of Things). Its a world of things (such as vehicles, home appliances, any physical device) connected.  These devices embedded with firmware, software, electronics, sensors, actuators and connectivity which makes any physical device intelligent, so that they can talk with each other. Do you want to know why? I will be explaining more details in my next article.

IIoT is Industrial IoT, i.e using IoT in manufacturing industries. This brings brilliant machines together, advanced analytics and many more. It has great potential to change the way how the Industry works and it enables M2M machine-to-machine communication. Next article i will tell some real time applications of this.

IoE is Internet of Everything where people, process, data and things(these are 4 pillars) talk with each other. The more expansive IoE concept includes, M2M, M2P machine-to-people and P2P people-to-people interactions. This concept is originated at Cisco.This grand vision depicts a worls where people, process, data, things are connected to a single and common network. 

The WoT is Web Of Things, is next stage of IoT where integration of smart things to the web architecture/ application is done. Adopting web protocols, to connect anything in the physical world and give a presence to it in world wide web (WWW). Its a high level application protocol designed to maximize the interoperability in IoT. 

I hope this short introduction gave all of the readers a taste of  all these emerging technologies potential.  In coming articles i will be explaining in detail of this technologies. Please like this blog and give your support. Suggestions, views and comments are always welcome.

Thank you

FMEA Types and steps involved

FMEA means Failure Mode and Effects Analysis. There are 3 types of FMEAs.  System FMEA (SFMEA) Design FMEA  (DFMEA) Process FMEA  (PFMEA) SFMEA is for System and used to analyze the failures of the end product in a customer's system. It focuses on the potential failure modes associated with the functions of the end product.  DFMEA begins with the development of information to understand the system, subsystem or component being analyzed and defines their functional requirements and characteristics. It focuses on potential failure modes associated with the function of each system, subsystem or component being analyzed.  PFMEA is used to analyze manufacturing and assembly processes. It focuses on process inputs.  FMEA Processes - Steps Involved  There are 13 steps in creating an FMEA. Please find the attached diagram. Step 2: Define the Function  What is the system, the sub system or process steps supposed to d...

Anatomy of embedded Linux system

Linus Torvalds released 1st version of Linux kernel in 1991.  Much lower used as desktops and mainly used for embedded applications. In embedded systems, Linux has been ported to many architectures including ARM. It’s an open software, and some pros of open source software - reduces software costs, full control of source code, wide usage of components can improve quality, easy to evaluate new software. In the anatomy of embedded Linux system, these 4 items are very important - Tool chain, Boot loader, Kernel and File system. This is the basic diagram- we have 2 main components Host and Target.  Tool chain indicates the tools and software required for developing software on the target platform. Example compiler, Binutils, C library, debugger, kernel headers etc.  If we have to debug kernel headers, serial debugger can be used. If CPU wants to be debugged,  JTAG debugging tool must be used.  Please refer below image.  Binutils is a coll...
