Manufacturing equipment generates enormous volumes of data (in the petabytes, annually), these data "falls on the floor," because capturing and centrally aggregating it is expensive and cumbersome. Big data in manufacturing requires a pervasive device-agnostic, standards-based solution for data collection, tying thousands of data sources in a factory to a centralized analysis platform. The video link below discusses the development of an Oracle Java Embedded--based platform for big data in manufacturing with the MTConnect Platform for data interoperability and the vimana cloud-based platform by System Insights.

"POUND" is a workout using Ripstix, a drumstick which is slightly heavier and shorter than a regular drumstick, colored green so the brain can better sub-consciously detect its motion. Even a non-musician can keep the rhythm during a "Pound. Rockout. Workout". A fusion of rhythm, cardio, Pilates, isometric movements, plyometrics and isometric poses goes into the 45 minute workout. Participants can expect to burn between 600 and 900 calories per hour while strengthening and sculpting infrequently used muscles. The moves are easy to follow and non-complex. These are cardio exercises using strength training and drumming. Tuff Girl says "POUND" is used to work the entire body and raise the heart rate to a fat-burning zone with moves as precise as a basic beat.
