From strategy to implementation: how a roadmap helps to implement digitalisation
In the manufacturing industry, there is often talk of digital transformation. This is intended to pave the way for Industry 4.0. The opportunities and potential benefits of digitalisation are well known. The question is: why is it still only making slow progress? I get to the bottom of this question in my blog post.

The three pillars of an IoT factory
If you want to develop viable, successful solutions over the long term and also be able to evaluate and channel the potential of the Internet of Things, IoT needs to be strategically anchored at your organisation. This is where the IoT factory comes in handy. I will explain what that is in my blog post.
Read moreAn anomaly is a data point or pattern in a time series that differs from the data you would typically expect to receive. Anomaly detection deals with the task of identifying these irregularities. In this blog post, we will be presenting approaches used to analyse time series data and detect anomalies. Along with that, you will also find out how to successfully integrate the algorithms into a smart product platform.

How to make an update to Industry 4.0 work – digital retrofitting using retrofit sensor technology
Many established SMEs in the manufacturing industry in Germany struggle with the challenge of using heterogeneous machinery: they operate machines made by different manufacturers, some of which are newer than others, and some of which are used more than others – all depending on their company’s individual history. If we are talking exclusively about digitalising and standardising these types of manufacturing environments in the sense of modern Industry 4.0 applications, then there is one question in the industry that is more pressing than any other: is a conversion or retrofit worthwhile at all?

A protocol stack for narrowband IoT (part 2)
While the first part of my blog series focused on the technology of NB-IoT, the second part will discuss the technical aspects of using it, as the advantages of transmitting data using narrowband IoT are quickly squandered if it is used incorrectly.
