INTERNET OF

THINGS (IOT) Machine to Machine communications (M2M)

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a scenario in

which objects, animals or people are provided

with unique identifiers and the ability to

transfer data over a network without requiring

human-to-human or human-to-computer

interaction.

IoT is one of the pillars of the short and long-term

strategy for NEORIS,which also includes Big Data,

Business Social, Analytics and Cloud Applications.

It is estimated that Connected Smart TV in 2020 will

surpass 1 billion units and will continue to grow

almost 5% year-over-year worldwide. There were 10

million wearable gadgets (sport bits and smart

watches) sold in 2014 and that trend is only

supposed to continue rapidly expanding in

comingyears. The sensors used in retail stores, life

sciences and medical services and manufacturing

plants represent how the future of the IT consulting

industryis turning to. In parallel, we foresee an

extreme takeover of IoT on the cloud environment,

which in conjunction with a slowdown of cloud

business applications, the cloud sphere will become

land of the machines and M2M communications

Our IoT/M2M practice has its own methodology that

covers the full adoption cycle starting with the a

business case definition, project conception, device

definition, communications, platform, development,

operations, analytics and support.

Internet of Things with SAP

SAP solutions for the Internet of Things provide

everything you need to generate data-driven

intelligence from connected things, people and

devices. Connect your business with the new

generation of Internet-enabled devices in the cloud,

transform your existing business processes and

reimagine your business and customer experience.

SAP Predictive Maintenance and Service

Built on SAP HANA Cloud Platform, SAP

Predictive Maintenance and Service is designed to

deliver deep unified insights by integrating

operations and analytics on a single platform. To

support innovation for continuous performance

improvement, the solution is envisioned to help

optimize the value of hard-won business and

technical data as well as data from unstructured

documents from various sources. The solution

intends to help assess historic and sensor data to

assist users in predicting a malfunction before it

occurs to help thwart a negative impact on profits.

Additionally, the SAP AR Service Technician

mobile app empowers field technicians to complete

work orders automatically generated by SAP

Predictive Maintenance and Service in a hands-free

environment using smart glasses.

SAP Connected Logistics

Built on SAP HANA Cloud Platform, SAP

Connected Logistics is designed to allow logistics

hub operators and others to monitor traffic toward

and within a hub and facilitate communication

between involved parties, including those that do not

have a direct business relationship. Furthermore, the

software is strategic to offer integration to backend

transportation management systems, and lean

dispatching capabilities for logistics service

providers that do not have a sophisticated backend

solution in place. SAP Connected Logistics

customers can also use the recently announced AR

warehouse picker mobile app that leverages

wearable technology such as smart glasses devices

for a complete hands free operation, helping to

eliminate the need for handheld scanners.

Connected Manufacturing from SAP

SAP Manufacturing Execution version 15.0 is

envisioned to enable the Internet of Things for

manufacturing operations. By integrating

manufacturing results with real-time feeds into the

SAP HANA platform, companies are expected to

take advantage of the cloud for orchestrating and

optimizing global operations — beyond a single

production plant, use predictive analytics to drive

cost efficiencies and achieve higher asset utilization.

The new release includes support for SAP HANA,

enhanced user experience, extended mobility and

end-to-end enterprise integration for deeper

manufacturing transparency. Leveraging SAP

Manufacturing Execution with SAP HANA helps

accelerate the promise of Industry 4.0 for innovative

manufacturers.

Augmented Reality

Augmented reality is changing the way we view the

world -- or at least the way its users see the world.

Picture yourself walking or driving down the street

and consider the possibilities. With augmented-

reality displays, which will eventually look much

like a normal pair of glasses, informative graphics

will appear in your field of view, and audio will

coincide with whatever you see. These

enhancements will be refreshed continually to reflect

the movements of your head. Similar devices and

applications already exist, particularly on

smartphones, like iPhone or Android.
