关于客户
James Cook University (JCU) is the second oldest university in North Queensland, Australia. It is a teaching and research institution and is ranked as one of the top universities in the world. Its main campuses are located in the tropical cities of Cairns and Townsville, North Queensland - and one is in the city state of Singapore. JCU senior managers saw the potential of the Internet of Things a few years ago and made the decision to design a degree program. They recruited Wei Xiang, a professor and researcher in the areas of wireless technology and IoT, to kick off the program. He is now Founding Professor and Head of Discipline of Electronics Systems and Internet of Things Engineering at James Cook University.
挑战
James Cook University (JCU) in Australia wanted to start an Engineering IoT degree program to educate students thoroughly so that they could get jobs in the IoT industry. They needed to partner with a technology provider that could not only provide the IoT platform, but also work with the university on IoT-related projects, as well as help to educate the students. The university also had to educate students and parents about the IoT and its potential for post-graduation employment. The hands-on part of the course is run by Prithvi Moses, Solution Architect at Software AG. He runs Cumulocity IoT workshops three times during the final year IoT capstone project.
解决方案
JCU partnered with Software AG and decided on Cumulocity IoT, after testing signals and strength of connectivity. The course takes a three-pronged approach to teaching IoT: First, electrical engineering courses give students the ability to understand the physical, sensor side of the Internet of Things. Second, a hands-on IoT platform offers them the chance to design and test different IoT use case scenarios in the real world. And, third, Big Data courses teach them how to apply analytics tools to their IoT data. The IoT Education Package is a free of charge offer from Software AG’s University Relations team to support faculty members in higher education institutions in both theoretical and hands-on teaching.

Case Study
IoT platform Enables Safety Solutions for U.S. School Districts
Designed to alert drivers when schoolchildren are present, especially in low-visibility conditions, school-zone flasher signals are typically updated manually at each school. The switching is based on the school calendar and manually changed when an unexpected early dismissal occurs, as in the case of a weather-event altering the normal schedule. The process to reprogram the flashers requires a significant effort by school district personnel to implement due to the large number of warning flashers installed across an entire school district.

Revolutionizing Medical Training in India: GSL Smart Lab and the LAP Mentor
The GSL SMART Lab, a collective effort of the GSL College of Medicine and the GSL College of Nursing and Health Science, was facing a challenge in providing superior training to healthcare professionals. As clinical medicine was becoming more focused on patient safety and quality of care, the need for medical simulation to bridge the educational gap between the classroom and the clinical environment was becoming increasingly apparent. Dr. Sandeep Ganni, the director of the GSL SMART Lab, envisioned a world-class surgical and medical training center where physicians and healthcare professionals could learn skills through simulation training. He was looking for different simulators for different specialties to provide both basic and advanced simulation training. For laparoscopic surgery, he was interested in a high fidelity simulator that could provide basic surgical and suturing skills training for international accreditation as well as specific hands-on training in complex laparoscopic procedures for practicing physicians in India.

Implementing Robotic Surgery Training Simulator for Enhanced Surgical Proficiency
Fundacio Puigvert, a leading European medical center specializing in Urology, Nephrology, and Andrology, faced a significant challenge in training its surgical residents. The institution recognized the need for a more standardized and comprehensive training curriculum, particularly in the area of robotic surgery. The challenge was underscored by two independent studies showing that less than 5% of residents in Italian and German residency programs could perform major or complex procedures by the end of their residency. The institution sought to establish a virtual reality simulation lab that would include endourological, laparoscopic, and robotic platforms. However, they needed a simulator that could replicate both the hardware and software of the robotic Da Vinci console used in the operating room, without being connected to the actual physical console. They also required a system that could provide both basic and advanced simulation training, and a metrics system to assess the proficiency of the trainees before they performed surgical procedures in the operating theater.

Edinburgh Napier University streamlines long-distance learning with Cisco WebEX
• Geographically dispersed campus made in-person meetings costly and inconvenient.• Distance-learning programs in Malaysia, India, and China required dependable, user-friendly online tools to maximize interaction in collaborative workspaces.• Virtual learning environment required a separate sign-in process, resulting in a significant administrative burden for IT staff and limited adoption of collaboration technology.

8x increased productivity with VKS
Before VKS, a teacher would spend a lot of time showing a group of 22 students how to build a set of stairs within a semester of 120 hours. Along with not leaving the teacher much time to provide one-on-one support for each student to properly learn carpentry, it also left a considerable amount of room for error. Key information would be misinterpreted or lost as the class was taught in the typical show-and-tell way.

Scalable IoT Empowering GreenFlex's Sustainable Growth
GreenFlex, a company that supports sustainable development, decarbonization, and energy efficiency, faced several challenges in its quest to expand its business. The company needed to deploy a robust and sustainable IoT technology to support its growth. It was crucial for them to monitor and control devices at customer sites in a safe and reliable manner. They also needed to integrate devices across a range of communication protocols and gather and act on data to meet efficiency targets. GreenFlex had previously built IoT capabilities into its digital platform, GreenFlexIQ, to monitor and manage customer sites remotely. However, they soon realized that they needed a new platform to support their ambitions. They needed a platform that could scale to connect more devices for production management and make it easier for the operations team to manage devices in the field.
