DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY


Opportunities and system upgrades The AI (artificial intelligence) processing model is completed through interconnected satellite computer processing units communicating between various sites. The various AI models are developed and shared to the field processors. Field processors and field logic controllers are connected to peripheral sensors and actuators that provide input and output to the various sensors. The data gathered from the various


systems has shown that opportunity does exist for heat recovery and resource recycling systems. The upgraded version of the system focusses on managing alarms and risk conditions but also energy and resource recovery systems.

appropriate infrastructure responses to these criteria. Figure 1 is a high-level schematic


illustrating four GUIs used to manage theatre complex engineering control systems, general alarms in an emergency department, and 12 isolation rooms. The degree of information displayed is varied by the interface on the HMI but the level of process monitoring, escalation of alarms and control loop feedback processed by the system is managed and


communicated through an IoT-enabled platform. The ability to remotely log in, compare


the performance and benchmarking of the various platforms and systems proved useful in comparing the systems against each other and evaluating the actual value proposition of an IoT-enabled system against a historic system. In the South African context, the oxygen shortage and sporadic load-shedding provided a proving ground for the system.


Successful implementations of IoT in healthcare IoT has been successfully used to drop emergency unit waiting time. This concept was proven at Mount Sinai Medical Centre in New York City, USA. GE Health has implemented IoT-driven software to track the occupancy of beds.1 Researchers have spent some time


evaluating the ethical matters around smart cities, smart hospitals and IoT the conclusion that data from IoT and AI should be managed with the same professionalism that lawyers and medical
