What will be a Focus Area for Control & Automation to bring significant Contribution in Bigdata/IOT Ecosystem

Hi All, 


Big Data & IOT is becoming Major topic in every discussion regardless as in Academic or Professional. 


I'm just wondering what kind of Focus Area that we should priority as part as in the Bigdata/IoT  to make sure that it could bring significant Contribution (C&A) within the EcoSystem. 

Yes, the Ecosystem related to Bigdata/IoT is soo huge, but there must me a specific area that could lead to the Biggest Impact as a whole. 


Where we can play a role as an expert in Control & Automation.


Machine Learning?

Data Analytics?

Defining Bigdata Automation Policy?

    We are looking at IoT to pinpoint issues where multiple issues are aligned at one time and the result is a long stoppage of the equipment.


    ​For example, we will log a carrier number, a platten number and an engine type. So, carrier #28 with platten #72 with an engine type ABC may cause issues, but as this alignment may only occur once a month, it gets lost within the other issues that can occur in a plant. However, if we log every carrier, platten and engine combination that occurs during production and mark it when an issue occurs, we will soon be able to see what permutations cause issues and downtime. You could also log additional data such as temperature, as issue could be worse on a cold morning or hot summers day.


    ​Multiply the above example with all the permatations that can occur and by all the facilitied in a plant, you have a lot of data but the ability to pinpoint instances where problems occur, which would then investigated and eliminated.
