Smart systems and Sensors Describe the  Smart  System. 1. a  system  that uses sensing, actuation,  and control to make decisions based on the  information at hand.  2. By integrating  ICT functionality into  "traditional"  technologies,  smart systems give  them advanced control and  usability features.  3. In order  to describe and analyze a condition, make decisions that are predictive or adaptive, and take smart actions as a  result, smart systems combine sensing, actuation, and control capabilities. The "smartness"  of the  system is typically explained by its  autonomous operation based on closed-loop control, energy efficiency, and networking  capabilities. ". what is physical computing? Building, constructing, creating, or making interactive systems that employ various types of software and hardware to detect and react to an external stimulus—which could be a program, a problem st...

what are standards? “[A] document, established by consensus and approved by a recognized body, that provides, for common and repeated use, rules, guidelines or characteristics for activities or their results, aimed at the achievement of the optimum degree of order in a given context NOTE: Standards should be based on the consolidated results of science, technology, and experience, and aimed at the promotion of optimum community benefits.” This is a definition that has been accepted and repeated by many standardization organizations, including in BSI's BS 0. If we were to go beyond the definition and look at standardization conceptually and theoretically, it could be said that it transcends being simple guidelines, specifications, or best practices; standardization is a knowledge management tool in its basic form. These documents ensure that knowledge gained ...
