Workshop: Applications of IOT For Non-Interconnected Zones

This workshop encapsulates the synergistic role of Edge Computing and the Internet of Things in enhancing data processing and connectivity in unconnected areas. Edge Computing, by decentralizing data processing, facilitates local data collection and analysis, thus reducing reliance on long distance network connections. IoT complements this by integrating smart devices for data collection and transmission, enabling autonomous operation. Together, these technologies enable real-time data analysis, crucial for quick decision making. The workshop will cover a comprehensive understanding from the physical layer to the application layer of an Edge-IoT architecture, catering to the unique challenges of unconnected areas. In addition, the workshop will also contribute insights pertinent to countries where energy and communication networks are not yet interconnected. This will encompass strategies and solutions tailored for the implementation of Edge Computing and IoT technologies in regions lacking infrastructure. These insights are particularly vital for countries striving to leapfrog to advanced technological capabilities despite infrastructural limitations.
