Embedded

Intelligence and connectivity increasingly are

embedded in the field device. Everything is

getting smarter. “Internet of Things”

becomes real.

Cloud

Smart devices serve lots of data that must

be stored somewhere secure and

accessible. Analytics and visualization

become essential.

Mobile

We’re wearing more technology than we

once had on our desktop.

Embedded

More things are connecting to the Internet

than people — over 12.5 billion devices in

2010 alone. Cisco’s Internet Business

Solutions Group (IBSG) predicts some 25

billion devices will be connected by 2015,

and 50 billion by 2020.

Embedded

20 percent of computers will learn not just

process in 2017.

Embedded

By 2020, one in three knowledge workers

will be replaced by enterprise owned smart

machines they trained.

Embedded

The Internet of things will create economic

value for all organizations and sectors and

create an additional $1.9 trillion for the

economy by 2020.

Embedded

Changes in MEMS manufacturing will drive

the equipment & materials market from

$378M to $512M for equipment and $136M

to $248M for materials between 2012-2018

Embedded

3D printing will revolutionize the supply

chain.

Cloud

• By 2017, 65 percent of data center capacity

will be private, down from 80 percent today.

Enterprises aren't going cloud happy en

masse.

Cloud

In two years, the combined IT and telecom

market will hit almost $4 trillion, or 5

percent of global GDP. A believable statistic

— someone has to network the Internet of

things.

Cloud

Forrester Research predicts that the global

cloud computing market will go from $40.7

billion in 2011 to $241 billion in 2020.

• CIBC, a Canadian bank, predicts that

information-generation growth will increase

50 times over the next decade. IDC, a

market research firm, similarly forecasts a

44-fold increase in data volumes between

2009 and 2020.

Mobile

Mobile

Location data is an essential component of mobile big data — perhaps the primary data type that differentiates mobile from Web-based big data

Mobile

According to IMS Research, the wearables market is poised to grow from 14 million devices shipped in 2011 to as many as 171 million units shipped by 2016.

In a more recent estimate, ABI Research pegs the wearables market at 485 million annual device shipments by 2018.

Business Insider believe this number is too high because of the uncertainty surrounding eyewear and smartwatches. We see global annual wearable device unit shipments crossing the 100 million milestone in 2014, and reaching 300 million units five years from now.

Mobile

Wearables -- Mobile

• Those betting big on wearable computing believe an assorted new crop of gadgets — mostly worn on the wrist or as eyewear — will transform the way in which we interact with the rest of our devices.

• But wearables won't just complement smartphones. What is perhaps most intriguing about them is that they will serve new purposes too. Because they are designed to be worn close to the body, they're ideal for monitoring our vital signs and health.
