Internet of Everything as a Platform for Extreme Automation

Reports on the concept of the Internet of Everything (IoE). IoE is a notion for intelligently connecting people, processes, and data in one uniform way, enabling communications between machines (M2M), machine-topeople and technology- assisted peopleto- people interactions. IoE is expected to reinvent the business and the automation wheel all-together. From processes, models to business and manufacturing frameworks everything is expected to change with the change in data available and the smart connectivity between people and machines for critical decision making. It is bringing productivity and competitiveness to higher levels along with opening up many doors to new and exciting opportunities. IoE expands on the concept of the “Internet of Things” by connecting devices and people in one network. This connection goes beyond the basic M2Mcommunications to enable a democratization of skill and how it is being delivered globally. An integral part of this is to be able to transmit touch in perceived real-time,which is enabled by suitable robotics and haptics equipment at the edges, along with an unprecedented communications network capabilities.
