The specialist IoT Bsquare company has a modular software solution for engineering services.
Although it is said that “is here,” the Internet of Industrial Things (IoTI) is not something which will appear in a box at the door, ready to use.
to pass “potential” to reality integration by deploying IoT systems and get the maximum benefit is needed. This is because the Internet of Things (IO) is not one-dimensional and depends on many variables.
For example, make data of energy consumption are more accurate and updated may require smart meters in the homes of clients and networks to carry data collected and analysis software in the cloud.
“ there is a full IoT -of end to end – out there “he said, pointing around the analyst Enterprise Strategy Group, Eugene Signorini
And that -. probably – is true, although big players as IBM and General Electric are trying to build or acquire as many parts as possible.
and then?
Many companies hire outside firms engineering to help with integration. Thinking about it, Bsquared offers the market the DataV software that can make it easier deployment of IoT. DataV includes modules for connecting devices, monitoring and analysis of the data they generate.
“users can deploy the software across an entire infrastructure or just certain parts of it, and integrate software modules Bsquare with other suppliers, and get the results of the IoT faster, “said company CEO, Jerry Chase.
for the executive, it is an illusion that IoT can plug in and start as if it were a PC. By offering DataV as a software product, the company expects to streamline implementations companies (and reap higher profit margins for itself). DataV is available in a perennial license, subscription or in a SaaS model.
Few companies are using the IO yet, but the survey ESG 633 people in midsize and large organizations showed that a 19% have initiatives underway IoT and 39% are developing projects for implementation within two years.

Technology is transforming the structure of the world economy, and Peru is not prepared to succeed in this new order. The transformation will not happen in one year, but in 10. What do we know today of Peru of 2026?
in the Ministry of Finance hired a software for the management of tax information.
Because they not reached an agreement with the current firm, mayor of Valledupar work with a software leased for information management in the Ministry of Finance.
the secretary of Municipal Finance, Eudes Fuentes, they said they can not paralyze the work and because they can not go out and buy new software, because that means migrate the information and conditions are not given for reasons of time, determined that it is better to lease the virtual platform to a firm of Barranquilla.
the official explained that with the current software will work until March 31 because on April start operating the rented contract that goes up to December this year. Fuentes explained that the theme of the software has not affected the collection, which is kept, since 25% of taxpayers has come to pay.
also said that enlargement discount for a month has nothing to do with the software, but they did nuisance with the system, in addition to the entrance of Holy Week, so when evaluating those alternatives and seeking to give benefits to taxpayers opted for the extension period.
However, consulted by PYLON sources claim that the software does affect the issuance of invoices, hence the term extension granted by the Municipality for taxpayers to take advantage of the discount, also because the Secretariat has struggled to make releases of payments property tax and industry and commerce last year.
a source omitted his name, said the fact that the municipality think now rent the software puts at risk the collection, since it will be a particular who will manage the system and is not the same as having something of your own that something leased.
Meanwhile, councilman Gabriel Muvdi Arangüena said he disagrees with the lease of software, because it put the information of the Municipality in the hands of an individual and could happen what happened in the government of Luis Fabián Fernández with the so-called ‘Poster taxes’ .
Teme councilor a ‘foreign’ can get their hands on the information, which said it is time that the municipality give final solution to this issue, because it is playing with the budget and not they will be able to see works.
the new software of the Ministry of Finance of Valledupar will start operating from April to December.

From Barcelona Messi to school basketball teams USA adopted the video system to improve performance

An hour before dawn in winter, players team basketball Jonesboro high school enter a dark classroom to watch a video of the victory of the previous night on Eagle’s Landing. At least on paper what you see is shocking, the kind of victory by 14 points, coming from behind, that catapulted Jonesboro, a public school outside of Atlanta, two state titles in a row from Georgia in 2014 and 2015.
But coach Jonesboro Cardinals, Dan Maehlman, has difficulties to praise the team. “You know what I mean when I say to block the pass ? I speak a foreign language?” He asks, holding his head as if about to burst. He points to the screen where two defenders fail to intercept a lob pass. Maehlman rewinds and redisplays the sequence. “I’ll try again. to block the pass means that the player does not take the damn damn ball”
Players are kept mostly silent. Most he spent hours watching and filming on their smartphones, tablets and computers, using software called Hudl. At the meeting, Maehlman also uses the technology applied to sport. Created by three friends from business school at the University of Nebraska, Hudl focuses on digital video playback: Teams loaded recordings games (captured on a mobile device with app Hudl or a digital camera) Hudl servers, which are immediately available to anyone with permission can see them, from the coaches through the players and talent scouts. Later coaches can choose sections of the video (the fumble in the fourth quarter or the second quarter particularly elegant theft), inserting notes, written comments or audio players. They can also use these sections to create digital files for your team plays. Athletes use the software to study plays, edit and share outstanding recordings on their profile pages adaptive Hudl, and send recordings to their coaches for the analysis.
If a white board and an erasable marker were the basic tools for earlier generations of coaches, Hudl is quickly becoming the analogue of the XXI century. More than 100,000 sports teams worldwide currently rely on software, paying annual subscription from US $ 99 (for school teams) to US $ 50,000 (for professionals). The service has been adopted by teams of football and ice hockey, and all but one of the 30 NBA teams. Some of the most important international organizations in the world, including FC Barcelona, the New Zealand All Blacks and almost every club in the English Premier League, have subscriptions. But Hudl has been adopted mostly by high school teams and clubs in the United States. In basketball, nearly 22,000 schools have Hudl as a tool for basic training.
Despite the ubiquity of Hudl, many observers were surprised when the new firm Lincoln, Nebraska, who had built one he announced a few months that US $ 72.5 million was obtained in a round of investment made, which gave a valuation of US $ 250 million. It was a story that had desacomodado to anyone who does not know the subtle effect, but transformer, which Hudl has had on the way the coaches and players communicate with each other and with the outside world.

” We want to capture and add value to every moment in sports, “says CEO David Graff, who founded Hudl in 2006 with his fellow engineers and computational John Wirtz Brain Kaiser. In middle school, Jonesboro Hudl is part of almost everything that makes the basketball team. The morning after almost every game, Maehlman causes the computer to see the video; before important meetings has played rival. In addition to video resources, software tracks individual and team statistics, and automatically creates charts and tables showing the patterns of play.
As with many programs, Hudl was conceived as a digital replacement a task made long hand, in this case, the exchange of game recordings using coaches to continue competition. “Before there were people who traveled hundreds of kilometers to exchange DVD or waiting for days to arrive by mail,” says Graff. “And once he had the recording had so much data and so many plays that analyze, and no easy way to do it. We set out to change that.”
In early 2006, Wirtz, Kaiser and Graff, graduate assistant athletic program of Nebraska, he was able to present a beta version of Hudl then known as Bill Callahan Huddle- coach Cornhuskers football team. The software was pretty basic: essentially a player. But Callahan saw his potential. Said it would use if the group could have a final version of the product for the start of the 2007 season
“The sport has been living a technological revolution, and what is is to have an objective approach to performance measurement and just started to scratch the surface. “
the founders of professional teams Hudl expected to adopt its technology quickly, but that did not happen. “There were eight months when we shook my head against the wall,” recalls Graff. The Hudsucker Proxy, as he tells it, was when the decision to expand Hudl sports high school was taken. Ultimately there are few professional teams. The market for secondary schools is almost unlimited. So in 2009, after starting a pilot program in 12 schools in Nebraska, Texas and Kansas, Hudl lowered the starting price of the annual US $ 800 subscription for secondary schools. 2010 had 2000 attached equipment. The number grew from there: 7000, 8000, 80,000 more. And not only football, but also basketball, football, baseball and volleyball.
The genius of Hudl was democratize the technological revolution that Gennaro describes taking her both professional teams and secondary schools, junior school and recreation. shareable editable accessible, the kind that was usually reserved for professional organizations with analytical offered a lot of money. “One conversation with a coach and then receives a call from another from a nearby county, someone who says that is what I was expecting,” recalls Jason Aldridge, former football coach and sales representative Hudl Georgia and Carolina from the south. “For those teams filled a void.”
Officially, the company, which has 400 employees worldwide, does not report their annual income, although it is estimated that around US $ 30 million, compared with US $ 1.4 million in 2010. in the coming months Hudl offer a couple of new additions to their basic subscription payments, currently in beta. The first, Hudl Assist for basketball keeps you from coaches having to enter data. Coaches give their video to Hudl and professional sports analyst analyzes all game statistics
“The best way to describe Hudl is that it has streamlined many processes to us, “says Maehlman. “Need to record? It’s there. Do you need information about an opponent who could face in the semifinals of a state tournament? Or exactly how an individual player served from the line of free throws? That is also there. And it frees do what I have to do is concentrate on directing and the team. “
for an annual subscription, which part of the $ 99, coaches can access videos and own and rivals statistics.
a few days ago, surprised us with the news that the software Studio Ghibli has used to create his wonderful films, would have a Open Source version so that anyone could afford it. Since last Sunday March 27, the promise has come true.
The name of the animation engine is OpenToonz , which basically is responsible for things like My Neighbor Totoro, Princess Mononoke and Spirited Away , among many others. If you are interested in all this, you can click on the link to download the software at no cost, for either Windows or Mac OSX.
We hope your comments. Do you think more companies of this kind should at some point letting anyone experiment with technology ?, What impact do you think will have a move like this in the world of independent animation?
67% of the business sector agrees to invest or increase spending on Software Defined Infrastructure (SDI) this year, so says a survey by the US firm 451 Research.
more interested in this investment companies, according to data provided in the survey are VMware, Cisco and Microsoft topped the list of “go-to” customers, as suppliers for SDI capabilities. In addition, this investment will result in an increase of 14.4% in total spending.
SDI involves virtualizing all the hardware resources, combined with the scale and elastic management automation . As such, it is done through the implementation of multiple technologies and products.
Although server virtualization has been and remains the usual starting point for most companies, additional approaches defined by software they have emerged in recent years, including software defined (SDN) and defined storage (SDS) software networks. Most survey respondents (65%) cited improved agility and flexibility as the top benefit of SDI.
In 2015 increases were projected spending infrastructure software technologies associated with SDI. 37.4% of companies were increasing spending on software defined (SDN) and software defined storage (SDS), respectively networks; this compared with planning less than 3% for budget allocations for these two technologies. VMware (66.3%), followed by Cisco (39.2%) and Microsoft (28.1%) stand out as SDI software vendors.
“As every business becomes a business digital; decisions are taken it is seeking to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of their IT environment in general ; this is encouraging, as they are taking decisions to explore new IT delivery models. “Said Simon Robinson, research vice president at 451 Research.
However, only 21% of organizations have implemented SDI in their environments today, and there are barriers to adoption more wide . For many senior managers, there are still some misgivings to the SDI adoption, but for others, the problem lies in the lack or lack of internal skills.
“For successful implementation, managers or people decision makers must first perform an audit of its internal competencies and seek fill any gaps. Meanwhile, providers should try to play a more active role in communicating the requirements and present case studies to help overcome these barriers, “says Nikolay Yamakawa, senior analyst at Research 451 Research.

Renaissance hardware powered by software is creating new opportunities in manufacturing.
Pebble project funded via Kickstarter, has sold more than one million smart watches (the brand is prior to Android Wear smart watch, from Google, and Apple watch). Nebia, manufacturer of shower heads bath efficient use of water based in San Francisco, recently obtained investment funds Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO, and the foundation of the family of Eric Schmidt, chairman of Google.
Drop , the maker of Fitbit, currently offers an application of kitchen scales connected to iPad for $ 100.
Several developments have put ventures manufacturing in a faster and commercial way.
Kickstarter and other sources of financing group have opened new options to raise money. And various additional elements have become more accessible: open source operating systems, design tools and printing 3 D.
Lower prices of microprocessors, sensors and other components enable a company to design sophisticated equipment girl reasonable costs.
And entrepreneurs hardware in dozens of US cities can now take advantage of a supportive infrastructure, including an ecosystem of “studies” hardware, incubators, accelerators and service providers.
last year, for example, Andy Rubin, creator of the Android mobile operating system, announced that its new company Playground Global LLC would “study” incubator where entrepreneurs and firms girls can focus on developing new gadgets while Playground addresses the challenges real world. engineering, manufacturing, finance, management of supply chain and distribution
emerging hardware companies entering Y Combinator or other accelerators can now take full advantage laboratories full of equipment to make prototypes provided by Bolt, venture capital firm.
The subcontractors are also interested in this movement. Flextonics (which makes products for Apple and Microsoft) began offering in 2013 the Lab IX service that connects emerging companies with manufacturing partners.
Nat Mani, CEO of Bestronics, a subcontractor of Silicon Valley, says: “More and more we seek to work with enterprises (not only) as a form of commercial development, but also to keep up with new technologies . “
the bottom line: the same type of tools and support systems that fostered the rise of software are becoming available in the hardware world

Although one of the most important aspects of photography is the same photographer, software used to process these images is crucial to create true works of art.
Perhaps you know Photoshop, but there are many other powerful applications that give you more creative solutions to the photographer, some even charged options. Therefore Google has just announced it will be giving away a whole software package of advanced photography which previously cost $ 150.
Nik is a German company that is very known for making one of the applications most famous photograph, Snapseed and many other plug-ins for Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop. in 2012 the company was bought by Google, so it Snapseed became a free application like other computer programs.
This package now offers Google for free includes 7 different programs that complement the picture of Adobe software. These include excellent effects HDR and color filters.
Originally this software package cost $ 500, when Google bought the company they lowered the price to $ 150 and now after a couple of years this is completely free for any user.
Although a lot of very complex software, this move by Google could mean that Google will no longer develop more of these computer programs. Chances are that Google focus their efforts on their mobile applications like Snapseed, but most likely is that all focus on Google Photos that have added a lot of users in their short casting time and now is becoming gradually . in the ideal place to store and edit photos

This is a tool that will seek to prevent corruption and other allegations remain cajoneados. What you want is to prevent politicians and powerful people resort to chicanery.
The Prosecutor is finalizing details for the implementation of a new software called Fiscal Control Module, which It aims to anticipate problems normally seen in the development of records.
This management software will help the evaluation and control of all types of cases, from “small” to those protagonists are politicians influential peppered with allegations of corruption, and usually are cajoneados.
with this new technology to be implemented in each case, it will be whether the measures applied to each case are correct, and if the file to be paralyzed for more than three months, automatically, the computer system will launch an alarm, reporting what stage the process is.
that is, the prosecutor in charge of each case, through this system, you can determine what steps to take, just check on this network.
in fact, the Office has been preparing the system two years ago, and the cost of software is within the spending plan of the Office, already included in the General Budget of the Nation.
How it works. By entering a cause, either by murder, injury, a complaint, or a corruption case, the table immediately loads the data input and software data and performs stretches his theory of the case. Make your strategic plan and will define things and diligenciales steps you must take the prosecutor in charge of the case. This tax, once you assign the case to an official, establishes procedural deadlines and once they fulfill, the software issues an alarm to the prosecutor has an evolution of the case.
These cases, as time passes are generating a control panel on the performance of prosecutors, so that cases of corruption involving politicians hardly again be in the Oparei.
the software is set to generate data deputy prosecutor and the Attorney General of the State.
Against corrupt. A serious problem facing the prosecution is pursuing proceedings in cases involving powerful politicians who resort to all sorts of chicanery to avoid prosecution.
Feeling threatened, prosecutors appointed no longer perform associated monitoring, and simply cases are in the nebula for several months or years.
with this new system, also you may have a count of the exact optimization of resources the Public Ministry, which will help organize and plan a tax investigation.
therefore, if a prosecutor try cajonear for several months a case, the software automatically be warning time the case is without movement.
access to this system has only the state attorney general, Javier Diaz Veron, and the prosecutor Ricardo Merlo.
Toonz launch a version of its animation software, free and open source. OpenToonz can be downloaded from March 26 from the site Toonz.
interested in the world of digital animation? as this news is for you, as Toonz , the software used to create animations like Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away and Howl’s Moving of Studio Ghibli announced that will launch a free version and Open Source available for everyone.
