What is Internet of Things or IoT?
The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical objects that contain embedded
technology to communicate and sense or interact with their internal states or the
external environment.
Simply put this is the concept of basically connecting any device with
an on and off switch to the Internet (and/or to each other)
The Internet revolutionized how people communicate, what they do, and how they
work together. The next wave of the Internet will connect machines and devices
together into functioning, intelligent systems. These interconnected devices —
the Industrial Internet of Things — will work together with unprecedented speed, scale
and capabilities.
IoT will redefine industries boundaries
Reshaping competition within the industry
Extracted from “How Smart, Connected Products are transforming Competition
by Michael E. Porter and James E, Heppelmann. HBR Nov 2014
 The function of one product is optimized with others related products.
 Basis of competition will be now on the performance of the system of systems.

Simulation systems are still design to work standalone,
Existing simulation standards were not designed with a System of
Systems (SoS) approach.
Interoperability is limited and only at a system level at best

 Build your assets with an Open
Architecture to avoid gateways
 Design with Data-Centric architecture
 Encapsulate the standards into the
platform

Layered Simulation Architecture : Converging multiple standards in one common platform
 Converging multiple
standards in one common
platfform.
 Leveraging a standard
well known in operational
systems : OMG DDS
(Data Distribution

 Improving integrability
and interoperability with
common services
