Two sessions: The Internet of Things is once again mentioned as a strategic emerging industry

In the 2012 government work report of the two associations, the Internet of Things was again proposed as a strategic emerging industry. Wen Jiabao said that the country will continue to vigorously cultivate strategic emerging industries, and the rapid development of new energy, new materials, biomedicine, high-end equipment manufacturing, and new energy vehicles will accelerate the pace of pilot demonstration of triple play, cloud computing and internet of things.

In fact, since 2010, Wang Jianzhou, chairman of China Mobile, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, has repeatedly raised the need to vigorously promote the development of the Chinese Internet of Things business. In this year's "two sessions" proposal, he proposed to speed up the business process of the Internet of Things. Wang Jianzhou bluntly stated at the two sessions that the speed of current Internet of Things promotion is still "too slow." The norms, standards, and plans for the Internet of Things are indeed very important, but the use of existing technologies such as wireless communications and sensors can already provide a large number of Internet of Things applications.

At present, in addition to China Mobile, China Unicom and Telecom also upgrade the Internet of Things business to a strategic level. Both have applied for a special number of Internet of Things. As the operator responsible for promoting IoT responsibilities, the key task this year is to promote the application of the Internet of Things and accelerate the business process of the Internet of Things. With the advancing of broadband speedup and the development of broadband networks supporting the development of the Internet of Things, all parties in the industry chain of IoT will benefit, and the scale of the Internet of Things will eventually be commercialized.

Although the Internet of Things industry has not yet formed a clear division of labor, applications in different industries are relatively separated. However, operators have the core network resources of information transmission and convergence in the Internet of Things industry and have great advantages in infrastructure and resources. They can use existing network resources to build a comprehensive and unified Internet of Things platform and achieve seamless connectivity. . In addition, operators rely on their advantages in application development and promotion to lead all parties in the industry chain, starting with killer applications in industries and homes, such as smart cities, smart homes, security, and smart medical services, to make good use of the Internet of Things. Application basis. Once a breakthrough has been made in the integration of unified platforms and killer applications, commercial scale is just around the corner.

In 2012, with the rapid growth of the 3G market and the launch of the broadband China strategy, the application of the Internet of Things will develop rapidly and the scale of application of the Internet of Things will be promoted to the agenda. Operators will also use their dominant position in the Internet of Things industry chain to promote the Internet of Things into the homes of ordinary people.
