Advances in technologies and the increasing amount of information are transforming how business is conducted in many industries, including government. Government data generation and digital archiving rates are on the rise due to the rapid growth of mobile devices and applications, smart sensors and devices, cloud computing solutions, and citizen-facing portals. As digital information expands and becomes more complex, information management, processing, storage, security, and disposition become more complex as well. New capture, search, discovery, and analysis tools are helping organizations gain insights from their unstructured data. The government market is at a tipping point, realizing that information is a strategic asset, and government needs to protect, leverage, and analyze both structured and unstructured information to better serve and meet mission requirements. As government leaders strive to evolve data-driven organizations to successfully accomplish mission, they are laying the groundwork to correlate dependencies across events, people, processes, and information.
High-value government solutions will be created from a mashup of the most disruptive technologies:
Mobile devices and applications
Cloud services
Social business technologies and networking
Big Data and analytics
IDC predicts that by 2020, the IT industry will reach $5 trillion, approximately $1.7 trillion larger than today, and that 80% of the industry's growth will be driven by these 3rd Platform technologies. In the long term, these technologies will be key tools for dealing with the complexity of increased digital information. Big Data is one of the intelligent industry solutions and allows government to make better decisions by taking action based on patterns revealed by analyzing large volumes of data — related and unrelated, structured and unstructured.
But accomplishing these feats takes far more than simply accumulating massive quantities of data.“Making sense of thesevolumes of Big Datarequires cutting-edge tools and technologies that can analyze and extract useful knowledge from vast and diverse streams of information,” Tom Kalil and Fen Zhao of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy wrote in a post on the OSTP Blog.
The White House took a step toward helping agencies find these technologies when it established the National Big Data Research and Development Initiative in 2012. The initiative included more than $200 million to make the most of the explosion of Big Data and the tools needed to analyze it.
The challenges that Big Data poses are nearly as daunting as its promise is encouraging. Storing data efficiently is one of these challenges. As always, budgets are tight, so agencies must minimize the per-megabyte price of storage and keep the data within easy access so that users can get it when they want it and how they need it. Backing up massive quantities of data heightens the challenge.
Analyzing the data effectively is another major challenge. Many agencies employ commercial tools that enable them to sift through the mountains of data, spotting trends that can help them operate more efficiently. (A recent study by MeriTalk found that federal IT executives think Big Data could help agencies save more than $500 billion while also fulfilling mission objectives.).
Custom-developed Big Data tools also are allowing agencies to address the need to analyze their data. For example, the Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s Computational Data Analytics Group has made its Piranha data analytics system available to other agencies. The system has helped medical researchers find a link that can alert doctors to aortic aneurysms before they strike. It’s also used for more mundane tasks, such as sifting through résumés to connect job candidates with hiring managers.

Connected device is disrupting many business, power utility being no exception. Power Utility companies are essentially faced with four challenges from growth of IoT
Machines, Controllers, HMI, SCADA systems are increasingly becoming cloud connected by the vendors who promise to offer more analytics and insight via their data for predictive and preventative maintenance. But quarantine policy of the critical assets means these new IoT features from the Machine/Controller Vendors can’t be utilized by the Power Companies
With the ever decreasing cost of solar and wind power microgrid, Utility companies will soon see declining revenue from power generation. To compensate for the lost revenue of power production, the company has to aggressively pursue new areas of revenues such as Energy management of Home as a service, Energy storage as a service, offering grid service for EV charging, grid service for P2P energy trading between the homes, home and microgrid, microgrid to microgrid, microgrid to battery, home to battery etc. All of this need to be facilitated via smart metering, smart grid and smart & secured transactions only possible via DLT ( distributed ledger technology) like IOTA. Also Utilities are exploring to offer some of the smart city services to the city authority
For critical infrastructure like dams, ICOLD ( International Committee Of Large Dams) want to see Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) of the dams real time so that any impending danger of collapse of the dam or rock or tunnel can be informed in advance to vacate the people who may be affected
Also a new emerging area of revenue will be EV charging in Parking-How IoT can facilitate smart charging and smart parking?
Over the last three years, engineering in IoT has seen massive changes primarily driven by Microsoft, Google and Amazon. These large behemoths have invested billions of dollars to develop IoT platforms that are more easy to manage and secure. Also IoT edge has gained a lot of momentum in both research and deployment as only means for practical IoT implementation. 5G is promising to transform the business of IoT. This has led to an unprecedented large swath of new areas of research funding in IoT. This is why right now for any practicing engineer it is absolutely essential to understand IoT platforms developed for major players like AWS, Google and Specially Microsoft. However, neither of the above platform offers exhaustive or a totally comprehensive solution for a scalable IoT. Just for Smart Metering to be deployed to millions of homes, additional technology to secure the smart meter, radio networks, IoT management technology and many other additional secured services will be required. Strategy, Price and Security of any IoT deployment must be optimal and acceptable. Given so much of interdisciplinary knowledge, it is almost difficult for any company to deploy a team which can meet all the requirements.This course is a modest attempt to educate the key decision makers, developers, security experts about what are the challenges, risks and practical way to deploy IoT for their next generation power utility business. In addition, with scalable deployment, managing IoT services for thousands of sensors and connections are emerging as a separate engineering subject of research. This area , formally known as managed IoT services is experiencing rapid growth as challenges for scalable IoT are much bigger than building them. This includes security of over the top firmware/software update, managing calibration of the sensors and systems, auto-diagnosis of any connection issue, narrowing down on root cause of API failures, tracking the hardware and service health of the distributed system etc. Course objectivesMain objective of the course is to introduce emerging technological options, platforms and case studies of IoT implementation in Power Utility Companies - Smart Metering, Smart Car, SHM ( structural health monitoring), Power Quality Diagnosis and Smart Contracts.

Over the last three years, engineering in IoT has seen massive changes primarily driven by Microsoft, Google and Amazon. These large behemoths have invested billions of dollars to develop IoT platforms that are more easy to manage and secure some perimeters of data. Also IoT edge has gained a lot of momentum in both research and deployment as only means for practical IoT implementation. 5G is also promising to transform the business of IoT. This has led to an unprecedented large swath of new areas of research funding in IoT.However large scale adaptation of IoT is slow due to security concerns at various levels. Securing Firmware and Gateways is far from ideal. One of the major issue is, disagreement among different large IoT vendors on the matter of security. Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS have pushed forward with its own security standards. Where as NIST is placing a more comprehensive one. OWASP model of 10 layers of IoT security did some impact but overall failed to get much ground due to non-adoption from major IoT platform like Azure or Google. Second large area of concern is security of Firmware. Primarily most of the Firmware are still vulnerable to any patching be it via OTA ( over the top ) or locally via a hardware port. Course Objective
Give introduction of all the technology stacks, data model and vulnerability of IoT
Drawing the layers of vulnerability at each stack and between the stack
Vulnerability from vendors and third party devices

IntroductionUnlike other technologies, IoT is far more complex encompassing almost every branch of core Engineering-Mechanical, Electronics, Firmware, Middleware, Cloud, Analytics and Mobile. For each of its engineering layers, there are aspects of economics, standards, regulations and evolving state of the art. This is for the firs time, a modest course is offered to cover all of these critical aspects of IoT Engineering.For Faculty members, it is of paramount interest that they should have an overall background of evolving IoT standards. To apply for grants in IoT areas, faculties must be exposed to new research directions where they can fit their existing skills. They also need to be aware of overall idea of funding areas in IoT. This course will address those evolving areas where they can attract more research and industrial grants in IoT.Summary

Introduction to latest areas of IoT which needs more research both from structural and engineering point of view
OverviewEstimates for Internet of Things or IoT market value are massive, since by definition the IoT is an integrated and diffused layer of devices, sensors, and computing power that overlays entire consumer, business-to-business, and government industries. The IoT will account for an increasingly huge number of connections: 12 B by 2019 and 100B+ by 2025.In the consumer space, many products and services have already crossed over into the IoT, including kitchen and home appliances, parking, RFID, lighting and heating products, and a number of applications in Industrial Internet.However the underlying technologies of IoT are nothing new as M2M communication existed since the birth of Internet. However what changed in last couple of years is the emergence of number of inexpensive wireless technologies added by overwhelming adaptation of smart phones and Tablet in every home. Explosive growth of mobile devices led to present demand of IoT.Over the last three years, engineering in IoT has seen massive changes primarily driven by Microsoft, Google and Amazon. These large behemoths have invested billions of dollars to develop IoT platforms that are more easy to manage and secure. Also IoT edge has gained a lot of momentum in both research and deployment as only means for practical IoT implementation. 5G is also promising to transform the business of IoT. This has led to an unprecedented large swath of new areas of research funding in IoT.Course ObjectiveMain objective of this course is to introduce emerging technological options, platforms and case studies of IoT implementation in emerging verticals ( smart cities, smart manufacturing, agriculture, public safety etc) and horizontals ( edge computing, PaaS platforms, 5G-IoT etc.) for the University researchers.
