Three Main Themes in the Industrial Internet of Things
(Acknowledgment: I have immensely benefitted from many stimulating discussions with many of
my colleagues in the IIC, some ideas from which are reflected in this article and to whom here I
would like to express my gratitude, especially to Brad Miller from General Electric Global
Research and Eric Harper from ABB Group. Brad is an unabashed and fervent believer in and
promoter of autonomous systems – I have profited a great deal from the many insights Brad has
generously shared with me on this topic.)
