Three Main Themes in the Industrial Internet of Things and to be coordinated across the network by entities with a purview of a larger scope – the idea of Global Optimization. With such progresses, we can foresee that the patterns of distributed problem solving will become more dynamic in response to the changes in the nature and complexity of the problems as they develop. The systems will extend the capability to dynamically distribute computation for analytics and problem solving close to where the problems are – in a way similar to the Big Data architectural principle of moving the computation to where the data are, however, in a much larger scale with much greater complexity. In these systems, newly developed and verified algorithms, models and approaches for problem solving are shared with and adapted by the individual autonomous assets2. As we push forward in this direction, we can recognize the emerging role that software p ^\
