Introduction

Industry is driven by a constant quest for productivity. They seek all means to most efficiently

produce and deliver their goods and services.

Yet in the last few decades, productivity growth has slowed dramatically.

Those who grasped what information and communications technology (ICT) could do saw huge

productivity gains. But as industrial digitalization and automation got started, not all industries

profited equally. The more asset-intensive companies, which employ much of the world’s work-

force, did not see the productivity gains of those who fully embraced the information economy.

Industry is about to change the world. Again.

i



Today, we stand at the cusp of the next major industrial revolution, one that

promises to unlock trillions of dollars of economic value

in the next decade by driving massive improvements

in productivity in physical and digital industries alike,

enhancing quality of life in safer, healthier and more

sustainable communities.

i



Industries in the “physical economy” have begun their digital transformation, and the opportunity

for realizing a much bigger productivity boom is before us.

The “Automation of Everything” era will be brought about by digital interfaces, data analysis and control of the physical world through networks employing the Nokia Bell Labs Future X architecture — networks to support the digitalization and connection of everything and everyone with the goal of automating much of life.

The interconnection of robots, machines, drones, sensors, processing platforms and people

through Future X networks will provide transformative tools for the automation and optimization

of factories and warehouses, ports, electric grids, transportation networks, food, healthcare,

construction, logistics and supply chain, emergency response, mining, and other physical industries.

The transformation has started



Imperative 1:

Connect everything and go deeper

All businesses invest in some form of assets – physical, digital or human – to create

their products and services. Today, enterprises in most industries operate with broadly

distributed assets, workforce and geographic footprints. They serve customers near

and far and spread their supply chains and facilities across the globe. Further, a portion

of their workforce and assets are often on the move. As a business grows, so does the

number, diversity and distribution of its assets. Therefore, optimizing utilization of those

assets should improve productivity and business performance.

This ability requires a network that connects everything: workforce, devices, machines and

tools, supply chain elements, partners, customers and even the products and services sold

when possible. This network will play a central role in the future productivity boom. The

ability to sense, analyze, optimize and control what matters will unlock business value that

would otherwise never have been possible.

To optimize asset use, a business must be able to do

two things: know the state of all relevant assets in time to facilitate a business decision

and orchestrate or control the allocation or behavior of the assets regardless of location.



Imperative 2:

Compute, wherever you need it

Enterprises embraced the cloud for its agility and efficiency. The ability to dynamically turn up

and adapt compute and application workloads in a company’s own data centers or the public

cloud provides undeniable resource efficiency. Today, private or hybrid cloud implementations

are a part of almost every enterprise’s digital transformation reality.

Centralized hybrid clouds simply will not meet the stringent performance envelopes imposed

by future scenarios. Imagine robots in an automotive factory, remotely operated tools or

autonomous vehicles in a mine, or remote surgery. These will never become broadly deployed

unless compute resources are immediately nearby.

Edge clouds make compute available wherever it is needed. They push applications closer

to distributed assets and users, even placing the compute capabilities on premises in local

clouds where stringent requirements demand it.

Enterprises now have the means to analyze information about the state of their assets

and operations in the most efficient way. Networks must seamlessly and reliably connect

users and applications to the clouds — be they edge, local or hybrid — and adapt swiftly

to changes in workload placement.

Robots in a factory. Autonomous vehicles in a mine.

Remote surgery. These will never become broadly deployed

unless compute resources are immediately nearby.



Imperative 3:

Apply insights. Execute with precision.

With the rapid proliferation of sensors and connected systems, we now face a data deluge.

Not all data is good data: we need timely, relevant, and contextually comprehensive data. As local

compute capabilities soar, and the sophistication of analytics improves, there are unprecedented

opportunities to collect and draw on a variety of real-time, state-driven information. Advances in

machine learning can also help us grasp complex processes.

We must operationalize data about the state of systems in each industrial environment to generate

timely and actionable insights.

These insights are most often driven by real-time information, which is correlated with contextual

and historical datapoints to uncover optimal paths and guide human decision making. The goal is

to achieve closed loop automation with predictive approaches that are fully automated.

Making sense out of data quickly will yield tremendous benefits:

Proactively reroute trains based on the probability of flooded tracks

Gain massive efficiency in logistics hubs that handle unthinkable volumes of goods daily

Optimize first responder approaches with scene analytics, saving and protecting more lives



Networks are at the intersection

Elastic Be dynamic and programmable.

High-performance Guarantee performance.

Resilient Deliver five and six 9s

of reliability.

Secure Minimize threats and

adhere to policy.

Scalable Anticipate and adapt.

As connectivity, compute, and insight requirements grow to support business-critical IoT

applications, networks must become fundamentally more:

Accessible Extend everywhere the

business is.



Beyond these fundamental characteristics in the network, adopting a connected systems approach

will unlock the full potential of insight-driven automated operations. The power of IoT to transform

business outcomes is amplified when relevant data is shared and leveraged across a multiplicity

of applications.

Consider a typical city. Security cameras might be a compelling IoT application for public

safety. In addition to the capital investment and installation, the organization needs to

provision networking, compute and analytics resources for the application. If future smart city

applications are also deployed in a bespoke manner, the operations quickly become unwieldy and

the economics far less compelling.

In a systems approach, resources are shared among departments. Video that monitors public safety can inform crowd analytics that feed traffic management scenarios. Sensors on cameras or light poles can feed smart lighting applications. Applications share resources from capability layers that meld compute, analytics, and networking resources, maximizing each IoT application.

Only a platform-driven mindset can fully leverage economies of scale to optimize outcomes

and uncover possibilities1. That mindset is here — driving the Nokia Bell Labs Future X for

industries architecture.

with industry, and ecosystems that are at once more diverse and more cohesive than we have ever

seen before. Nokia is actively engaged in catalyzing, developing and joining the ecosystems and

consortia that will drive specific industries to accelerated benefits.

Now let’s get really specific — and show you how Nokia sees Industry 4.0 taking shape across eight vital industries and segments.

Ecosystems and partnerships



Industry snapshots:

Smart cities and public safety

Smart citiesAs urbanization is on the rise, smart, connected cities will drive tomorrow’s economy. Smart

technologies have the potential to connect and empower citizens, make processes more efficient,

reduce congestion, improve safety and use resources more sustainably. The most secure and

livable cities will attract and keep the best talent and employers, a virtuous cycle that increases

tax bases and allows for growth and improvements.

In the last decade, while many cities have experimented with smart-city solutions and pilots,

they have not seen the hoped-for efficiencies. In response, city administrators are looking for

a long-term, platform approach that harnesses synergies across applications, reuses shared

capabilities and ensures an open approach to data and analytics for holistic solutions. This platform

will maximize limited budgets, enable public-private collaborations with entrepreneurs and innovators,

and engage citizens directly in shaping their cities’ futures.

Public safetyCurrent and future digital technologies will transform first responder effectiveness and monitor

environments for threats. But existing narrowband infrastructure can’t support this goal: many

first responder applications cannot transmit video, and their limited data isn’t being shared with

other response systems. First responders need vast knowledge about events: shared public health

data, event site CCTV video feeds, and emerging data from other response teams. Cities need

ways to alert citizens before events occur based on CCTV or drone information. Analytics exist to

spot real-time disturbances in crowds and events; asset and environmental monitoring could warn

of equipment failure or emerging chemical and industrial accidents.

Public safety requires a common broadband platform providing holistic event views by connecting

sensors, cameras and mobile first responders, with multi-cloud capabilities for gathering and

sharing data, bolstered by analytics and machine learning to automate responses and augment

first responder decision making.

Mining and manufacturing

MiningAs the world’s economy continues to expand unevenly and technological innovations cause shifting

demand for both new and traditional minerals, the mining industry is often in the hot seat. Plagued

by demand fluctuations and excessive operational costs, it must also remain attentive to safety and

environmental concerns. New digital technologies can help the mining industry solve these challenges

and respond to new opportunities.

In the mine of the future, a connected, digital network platform will support and foster new applications

and services for greater productivity, safety and innovation. Automation, robotics and remote

operations promise to remove workers from the most dangerous and hazardous parts of the mine.

Digitally enhanced personal protective equipment will monitor workers’ health and direct them from

exclusion zones. IoT sensing at massive scale will analyze facilities for under-utilized resources and

bottlenecks. Sensors, cameras and drones will provide 360° situational awareness. Dynamic tracking

of machine health and diagnostics will enable predictive maintenance while machine learning will

augment decision making.

ManufacturingMany manufacturers are using digital technologies for automation, employing Ethernet and Wi-Fi.

But as productivity growth stalls, efficient ways to manage supply chains and logistics, create agile

production facilities and empower workers are needed. Connected sensors, tools and machines (IoT),

digital twins, and analytics, AI and machine learning can boost intelligence and control of automated

processes and improve performance and decision making.

Beyond Wi-Fi, a secure industrial-grade mobile network is needed. 4G/LTE and soon 5G allow for more

sensors, faster production line re-configuration, automated vehicle control, and mobile connectivity

for handheld tools and asset tracking. Multi-cloud architectures can store and analyze data; ultra-

low latency of local edge clouds enables real-time decisions for automation and the creation of secure

slices for third-party access. Paired with analytics and machine learning, manufacturers can anticipate

issues, reconfigure processes on the go, and provide augmented reality guidance for workers.

Railways and power utilities

Power utilitiesToday’s power utilities are confronting lower demand for their energy due to a combination

of micro-generation by renewables and conservation measures by households and industry.

Utilities that remain as transmission or distribution operators will need to focus on optimizing

costs and extending their communications control deeper into the grid to control and

automate distribution for greater efficiencies. Some may add to their portfolio by entering

into the renewables market. Still others can leverage their assets and rights of way to offer

new smart city services such as smart poles to provide LED lighting, electric car plug-ins,

small cell wireless communications and CCTV.

A high-performance network, paired with multi-cloud, analytics, and machine learning

capabilities, is capable of supporting multiple communications subsystems and makes

possible such applications as predictive maintenance, workforce optimization, asset

optimization, and smart-grid billing systems for an improved customer experience.

RailwaysUrbanization, highway congestion and climate change are renewing interest in rail as a key

sustainable future transportation technology. Yet while new projects show promise, especially

in urban rail, much existing infrastructure is aging. Meanwhile, digitally-oriented millennials have

very different expectations for in-station and on-board experiences, demanding broadband

connectivity and personalized experiences. No longer vertically integrated in many markets,

railway operators face new competitors, changing business models and stricter compliance

regulations around security, safety and the environment.

A systematic approach is needed to both meet present challenges and provide a platform

for future growth. This offers a unique opportunity to dramatically overhaul operational

systems and improve safety and efficiency by implementing digital technologies. Digital

transformation will ensure cost competitiveness, help operators improve time to delivery

for freight, and deliver improved customer experiences for sophisticated passengers.

Industry snapshots:

Healthcare and financial services

Financial servicesThe financial services market faces big change from online players, competitors and

business model options. Digital customers are more demanding and less loyal. Some

countries mandate the exposure of financial data to third-party aggregators, so that

consumers can monitor more than one account held with different financial institutions

or seamlessly instruct their bank to make a payment through a third-party online payment

application. Changes are putting revenue from the most lucrative services, such as

payment processing, at risk.

Digital service innovation is now a priority to provide a customer-focused approach, unify the

customer experience across branches, mobile applications and online, and personalize offers.

Legacy modernization is now on the top 10 list. Rapid, agile methods for software development,

such as DevOps – already used in the online world – allow release of new services incrementally

without long, internal testing and often without recoding before being placed into production.

Features can be quickly expanded, improved or dropped based on feedback.

HealthcareHealthcare organizations are facing historic care and operational challenges, while striving

to empower patients with inclusive and self-directed services. Many hospitals and clinics

must leapfrog manual processes to automation. Medical sensor advances are enabling remote

monitoring with smart wearables; shared access to medical records between healthcare

services can better inform decisions by first responders and emergency staff. Digital

technology and healthcare networks are making organizations more aware, collaborative

and patient-centric.

A revolution using technology to provide more precise, effective care is underway, advancing

management and operations with greater situational awareness and intelligence. It is built

on an intelligent broadband network that can move everything from sensor data to large

2D and 3D medical imaging files. Low-latency edge computing is required to support

innovations like remote and robot-assisted surgeries, with analytics and machine learning

providing real-time information to augment performance and decision making.
