This training aims to clarify what the 5G network is and its impact on smart technologies. We will examine both the advantages and disadvantages of the relationship between these technologies (5G / IoT) and explore the developmental directions of a network that has been dedicated to the smart world from its inception.

The objective of the training is to explain what constitutes intelligent solutions (Internet of Things, AI, Blockchain, Virtual Reality, Metaverse) versus what does not, and to illustrate the advantages and disadvantages of these technological spheres.

Technological advancements and the exponential growth of information are reshaping business operations across numerous sectors, including government. The generation of government data and the pace of digital archiving are accelerating, driven by the surge in mobile devices and applications, smart sensors, cloud computing solutions, and citizen-facing portals. As digital information becomes more expansive and complex, managing, processing, storing, securing, and disposing of this data grows increasingly difficult. New tools for capturing, searching, discovering, and analyzing data are enabling organizations to extract valuable insights from their unstructured data. The government sector is reaching a critical juncture, recognizing information as a strategic asset. Government bodies must protect, leverage, and analyze both structured and unstructured information to better serve the public and fulfill mission requirements. As government leaders work to transform into data-driven organizations to successfully achieve their missions, they are establishing the framework to correlate dependencies across events, people, processes, and information.

High-value government solutions will emerge from a combination of the most disruptive technologies:

• Mobile devices and applications
• Cloud services
• Social business technologies and networking
• Big Data and analytics

Big Data represents an intelligent industry solution that enables government entities to make better decisions by acting on patterns revealed through the analysis of large volumes of data—whether related or unrelated, structured or unstructured.

However, achieving this requires more than simply accumulating massive quantities of data. "Making sense of these volumes of Big Data requires cutting-edge tools and technologies that can analyze and extract useful knowledge from vast and diverse streams of information," wrote Tom Kalil and Fen Zhao of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy in a post on the OSTP Blog.

The White House moved to assist agencies in finding these technologies by establishing the National Big Data Research and Development Initiative in 2012. This initiative allocated over $200 million to maximize the potential of the Big Data explosion and the tools required to analyze it.

The challenges posed by Big Data are nearly as formidable as its promise is encouraging. Efficiently storing data is one such challenge. Budgets are always tight, so agencies must minimize the cost per megabyte of storage while keeping data readily accessible so users can retrieve it when and how they need it. Backing up massive amounts of data further intensifies this challenge.

Effectively analyzing the data is another major hurdle. Many agencies utilize commercial tools that allow them to sift through vast amounts of data, identifying trends that improve operational efficiency. (A recent MeriTalk study found that federal IT executives believe Big Data could help agencies save more than $500 billion while also meeting mission objectives.)

Custom-developed Big Data tools are also enabling agencies to address their data analysis needs. For instance, the Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s Computational Data Analytics Group has made its Piranha data analytics system available to other agencies. This system has helped medical researchers identify links that can alert doctors to aortic aneurysms before they occur. It is also used for more routine tasks, such as sifting through resumes to match job candidates with hiring managers.

This instructor-led, live training in Oslo (online or onsite) is designed for product managers and developers seeking to decentralize data management for improved performance, by leveraging smart devices located on the source network.

Connected devices are disrupting numerous industries, with the power utility sector being no exception. Power utility companies currently face four primary challenges arising from the growth of IoT:

1. Vendors are increasingly connecting machines, controllers, HMIs, and SCADA systems to the cloud, promising enhanced analytics and insights for predictive and preventative maintenance. However, strict quarantine policies governing critical assets prevent power companies from utilizing these new IoT features offered by machine and controller vendors.
2. As the costs of solar and wind power microgrids continue to decrease, utility companies will soon experience declining revenue from power generation. To compensate for lost power production revenue, companies must aggressively pursue new revenue streams, such as home energy management as a service, energy storage as a service, grid services for EV charging, and grid services for peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading between homes, microgrids, and batteries. These initiatives require facilitation through smart metering, smart grids, and secure transactions enabled by Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) like IOTA. Additionally, utilities are exploring the provision of smart city services to municipal authorities.
3. For critical infrastructure such as dams, ICOLD (International Committee of Large Dams) mandates real-time Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) to identify impending collapse risks in dams, rocks, or tunnels, allowing for the timely evacuation of affected populations.
4. A new emerging revenue area is EV charging in parking facilities. IoT can play a pivotal role in facilitating smart charging and smart parking solutions.

Over the past three years, IoT engineering has undergone massive changes, primarily driven by Microsoft, Google, and Amazon. These tech giants have invested billions to develop IoT platforms that are easier to manage and secure. Furthermore, IoT edge computing has gained significant momentum as the primary means for practical IoT implementation. With 5G promising to transform the IoT business landscape, there has been an unprecedented surge in research funding for new IoT areas. Consequently, it is essential for practicing engineers to understand the IoT platforms developed by major players like AWS, Google, and especially Microsoft.

However, none of these platforms offer an exhaustive or comprehensive solution for scalable IoT. For instance, deploying smart meters to millions of homes requires additional technologies for securing the meters, radio networks, IoT management systems, and numerous other secured services. The strategy, pricing, and security of any IoT deployment must be optimal and acceptable. Given the interdisciplinary nature of this knowledge, it is challenging for any company to assemble a team capable of meeting all requirements.

This course is a modest attempt to educate key decision-makers, developers, and security experts on the challenges, risks, and practical approaches to deploying IoT for next-generation power utility businesses.

Additionally, as deployment scales, managing IoT services for thousands of sensors and connections is emerging as a separate engineering research subject. This area, formally known as managed IoT services, is experiencing rapid growth because the challenges of scalable IoT are significantly greater than the initial build. This includes securing over-the-top firmware/software updates, managing sensor and system calibration, auto-diagnosing connection issues, identifying the root cause of API failures, and tracking hardware and service health in distributed systems.
