Abstract :

Cloud Computing and emerging concepts such as G.E.'s Industrial Internet, Germany's Industry 4.0, and the Internet of Things have the potential to remove current computation and memory limitations of automation systems and vastly increase availability of data. Cloud Computing can also provide rapid access to computing power, crowd sourcing, and opensource software. New research is needed to design the associated algorithms and system architectures. I'll present examples of recent research.
