Smarter Planet
It's been a while since IBM has launched the "Smarter Planet" campaign and we have yet to witness or hear news about its impact to businesses cross industries around the globe, let alone our daily livelihood.
The idea was a simple one but it carries a much deeper meaning and greatest potential as we explore and give it more serious thought around everything that we do and anything that we encounter in our day-to-day life...no matter how old or young you are.
Here's the general outlines:
The world is becoming instrumented. By 2010, there will be a billion transistors per human, each one costing one ten-millionth of a cent.
The world is becoming interconnected. With a trillion networked things—cars, roadways, pipelines, appliances, pharmaceuticals and even livestock—the amount of information created by those interactions grows exponentially.
All things are becoming intelligent. Algorithms and powerful systems can analyze and turn those mountains of data into actual decisions and actions that make the world work better. Smarter.
Welcome to a "Smarter Planet". You are already here...so, start identifying work/tasks that can be done by the computer or equipments today. Tomorrow is definitely going to be a better day!
