Smart Dust

[AInternetofNano]

Given that the internet of things is actually about tiny sensors sending data from device to device via tiny nanosensors called smart dust, I'm wondering what SAS's role is in this emergent technology? Are you developing software for interfacing with smart dust? Is it even called that on the industrial side? I'm just wondering because I have a college paper on Smart dust Nanotechnology and I am very interested in the nitty gritty as far as how it works and whose ahead of who on the development/implementation sides.

PS. customer chatter told me to come and post this here so im not sure if this is a normal question or not but here we are.

SAS Insights provides a variety of resources on trending topics so this would be a good place to start! See topic group, Internet of Things here https://www.sas.com/en_us/insights/big-data/internet-of-things.html to look through content there.  Also, this article highlights how U.S. Manufacturing is facing business challenges and how they may find ways to create opportunities by the Internet of Things and Advanced Analytics https://www.sas.com/content/dam/SAS/en_us/doc/research2/iw-iot-finding-path-to-value-108081.pdf Good luck!

Smart dust is a very interesting topic for the future of IoT with even larger and larger amounts of data.  I see SAS moving forward with analyzing data with their IoT Solution.  I also found these articles to be helpful.
