Vision and Challenges for Realising the Internet of Things

SMMART is an innovative approach
of logistic and maintenance
services based on ubiquitous
availability of “in service” product
data for air, road, rail and marine
transport:
To reduce maintenance cost
To minimise unscheduled downtime
To assist mobile workers wherever they
operate.
SMMART key challenges
To monitor in real-time the usage and
maintenance data throughout the life-cycle
of critical sub-assemblies of a vehicle.
To optimise maintenance management
through a worldwide network.
To provide new services: advanced troubleshooting
tool, global configuration control,
resource planning tool.
To remotely exchange information between
all life-cycle stakeholders in a
timely, secure and trusted environment.
To provide end-to-end visibility of the logistic
supply chain.
To improve industrial and logistic traceability.
To optimise maintenance and logistic
planning.
To further improve transportation safety.
SMMART technical
approach
SMMART is the combination of:
Smart items capable of operating and
communicating wirelessly in the harsh environment
of vehicles.
Integrated ground information system
providing data collection and processing to
supply added value services Worldwide in
a fully secured network
SMMART
System for Mobile Maintenance
Accessible in Real Time
Re-engineered business processes addressing
technological, organisational and social
aspects to support the SMMART concept
implementation within the end-user community.
SMMART results
Technological breakthrough:
RFID tag system operating in the harsh,
metallic, cumbersome environment of engines
Wireless, auto adaptive sensor networks
RFID tag systems for track and trace in
Maintenance workshops
End to end data security and trust system
Innovative, high added value software features
as configuration control, trouble
shooting, strategic forecasting and optimisation.
System Integration:
2 demonstrations, on truck and on helicopter
engine successfully validated the end to
end integration.
