Abstract
Industry 4.0 introduces several changes to the original approach of industrial automation. Internet of Things (IoT) and cyber-physical system (CPS) technologies play huge roles in this context introducing cognitive automation and consequently implementing the concept of intelligent production, leading to smart products and services. This approach leads companies to face challenges of a much more dynamic environment. Many of these companies are not ready to deal with this new scenario where the existence of a large amount does not always collaborate to increase productivity. This book chapter explores the concepts of IoT and machine learning along with the consequent applications in the context of Industry 4.0. Applications covered throughout the chapter include solutions in the areas of IoT, edge computing, agriculture, smart cities, healthcare, and military operations.
