Technology innovation in an IoT Era

The further growth of billions of wirelessly connected devices requires a technology infrastructure that can handle a massive increase in storage, computing power and bandwidth, some of it available via cloud computing, to enable number crunching at very large scale and at high volume, low cost and low power. The IoT applications or ‘smart devices’ require the following technology enablers: ultra-low power, integration of memory and processing power to drive context awareness, security, advanced communication using smart antennas and improved analog performance, compactness by co-integration or stacking of heterogeneous systems.
