UNIT 5-Information Technology
Management Essentials - D075
Questions and Correct Answers.
radio frequency identification (RFID) - Answer are essentially small tags used to label
products for identification and have the product's information transmitted through radio waves.
Internet of Things (IoT). - Answer Use of the internet to connect digital devices, widely used
technologies, and control systems in order to more fully automate many aspects of life
IoT will deliver at least two broad impacts on business such as... - Answer First, IoT
represents enormous opportunities for new businesses to innovate through the development of
automated devices.
Second, existing businesses can use IoT to increase speed, reduce risk, improve quality, simplify
production, and respond more precisely to key market indicators.
unique identifiers (UIDs) - Answer are required so that each device can be addressed
individually, and the controlling system knows which device is transmitting the data for analysis.
can be alphanumeric or any string of characters that ensures that the UID can be identified
uniquely to the networked system.
Use of the IoT can be divided into two segments: - Answer industry-specific and all
industries.
Industry-specific devices - Answer include sensors in power generating plants or real-time
location devices for healthcare
all industries - Answer IoT devices are devices like smart air conditioning or security systems
that can be used in homes and businesses
The edge - Answer is any place outside of a data center and connected to the internet.
Where it all starts. (This includes things like machines, appliances, trucks, cars, streetlamps,
thermostats, pets, and healthcare equipment)
The future of IoT will depend on..... - Answer data
How do most Internet of Things (IoT) devices connect to other devices? - Answer Wi-Fi
, Which IoT system process is used to reference each IoT device on a network? - Answer
Unique identifier
True or false: Implementation of the IoT in the healthcare industry will increase the need for
hospital staff to monitor and record data to be analyzed. - Answer False
IoT devices can monitor patients and collect data and report to a database, which reduces data
collection tasks for hospital staff.
How can the Internet of Things (IoT) be used to improve supply chain management in the
automotive industry? - Answer By placing internet-connected sensors on every part in order
to monitor inventory
Correct! Using RFID sensors to track and monitor inventories in real time is an IoT application
that is relevant to the automotive supply chain.
A large agriculture company uses a system that uses sensors to measure the soil moisture at
various locations in its fields. These data are used to automatically adjust the irrigation system,
which reduces water waste.
Which type of technology is this company using to reduce water waste? - Answer Internet of
Things
Correct! This is an example of IoT. The sensors record data, which is then used to intelligently
adjust the irrigation system.
What is an example of IoT technology being used to aid airport functions? - Answer Baggage
tags that record data about each piece of luggage
Correct! Baggage tags that record data about luggage destination and location are an example
of IoT.
The airport installs sensors along the runways, and the sensors provide air traffic controllers
with real-time information about the location of every plane on the ground.
Which technology allows these sensors to transmit data to the air traffic controllers' server? -
Answer Wi-Fi signal
Correct! IoT devices use Wi-Fi to transmit data from sensors to a server.
Charlotte finds that the airport spends more than $100,000 each month on electricity for
lighting and the heating and cooling system in the airport.
How could Charlotte use IoT to reduce her airport's power bill? - Answer Light dimmers and
thermostats that report passenger traffic through the terminals in real time
Correct! Devices that connect and respond to data traffic are IoT technologies that can reduce
energy consumption.
