sensor analytics

Sensor data analytics are the next frontier of information technology. With experts predicting that the volume of sensor data will vastly surpass data from social media over the next decade, enterprises are eager to find out how sensor data analytics can help drive business performance in the years to come.
It is the statistical analysis of data that is created by wired or wireless sensors.
A primary goal of sensor analytics is to detect anomalies. The insight that is gained by examining deviations from an established point of reference can have many uses, including predicting and proactively preventing equipment failure in a manufacturing plant, alerting a nurse in an electronic intensive care unit (eICU) when a patient's blood pressure drops, or allowing a data center administrator to make data-driven decisions about heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC).
Because sensors are often always on, it can be challenging to collect, store and interpret the tremendous amount of data they create. A sensor analytics system can help by integrating event-monitoring, storage and analytics software in a cohesive package that will provide a holistic view of sensor data. Such a system has three parts: the sensors that monitor events in real-time, a scalable data store and an analytics engine. Instead of analyzing all data as it is being created, many engines perform time-series or event-driven analytics, using algorithms to sample data and sophisticated data modeling techniques to predict outcomes. These approaches may change, however, as advancements in big data analytics, object storage and event stream processing technologies will make real-time analysis easier and less expensive to carry out.
Most sensor analytics systems analyze data at the source as well as in the cloud. Intermediate data analysis may also be carried out at a sensor hub that accepts inputs from multiple sensors, including accelerometers, gyroscopes, magnetometers and pressure sensors. The purpose of intermediate data analysis is to filter data locally and reduce the amount of data that needs to be transported to the cloud. This is often done for efficiency reasons, but it may also be carried out for security and compliance reasons.
The power of sensor analytics comes from not only quantifying data at a particular point in time, but by putting the data in context over time and examining how it correlates with other, related data. It is expected that as the Internet of Things (IoT) becomes a mainstream concern for many industries and wireless sensor networks become ubiquitous, the need for data scientists and other professionals who can work with the data that sensors create will grow -- as will the demand for data artists and software that helps analysts present data in a way that's useful and easily understood.

Export data from mysql db to csv file using java

Hi friends ! Today I am discussing about simple but very important scenario. When we create any application then during creation of application we have face many scenarios like 1.Taking information from user and storing these information inside database : Generally such type of Operation is performed by user using form application 2.Taking Data from Database and Displaying on Page : We can perform such type of Operation in various ways like using JSP,JSTL tags or you can perform such operations using JQUERY also. 3.Taking Data from Database and download it in Excel or CSV format : In this we want our data from database and store it inside Excel or text files for further use. And we have chosen third scenario from discussion for performing this Operation we have to need three files exportCsv.html  :- this contains a button for clicking and performing exporting data from database Operation ExportData.java  :- It is a servlet class which defines connectivity fro...

Secure Database Connectivity in node.js with mysql

Image
Hi Everyone! Yesterday my friend Andrea from Italy asked me a question about secure Database connectivity in node.js with mysql i.e. he wants to a secure database connection in node.js for some secure keys like username,password,database name that we use during database connectivity.His problem is obviously right from security point of view as we know that JavaScript is client side scripting knowledge so it is compiled on client side so after inspecting page some one can be able to view these secure keys which I discussed previously. I surf internet and found there are various ways to solve this problem I am not discussing all of them here but also I discussing here two of them and after this discussion I think Andrea and other reader who are facing with same problem can be able to resolve their problem. I choose two ways to solve this problem. Connection code in app.js file Create a Json file Connection code in app.js file : Javascript is client side language and code i...

VBA stands for Visual Basic Application. . It is an event driven Programming language by Microsoft   now a days   it is predominantly used with Microsoft applications such as MS –Excel , MS-Word, MS-Access. VBA Application MS-Excel Provides loads on inbuilt functions.MS-Excel Provides only basic inbuilt functions which may not be sufficient to perform complex calculations but by using VBA we can create our own functions and perform our desirable tasks How to Access VBA Editor  In excel windows Press “ALT +F11”  to open VBA editor .. Step 1:   At first open Excel sheet Step 2:  Follow Above Tricks and open VBA Editor will be open  which looks like this . Some Important VBA Terminologies  Modules : Modules is the area where code is written. In above figure there is no any modules. How to insert Module ???
