WEBINAR: How to Calculate OEE and Maximize Manufacturing Production - 3 February 2022

 

Webinar Series Click Here to Register Title: How to Calculate OEE and Maximize Manufacturing Production Date: Thursday, February 3, 2022 Time: 8:00 am PST/ 4:00 pm UTC Duration: 60 minutes   SUMMARY In this IoT Central Webinar, see how overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) is a key performance indicator (KPI) created to measure manufacturing performance. OEE calculation and improvement empowers manufacturers with higher efficiency and quality and reduces costs. Scored from 0% to 100%, an OEE of 100% means the manufacturing unit is performing at peak capacity.  Manufacturers apply the calculation in various ways. Reasons behind the differing formulas include:  Lack of available data  Unique line details  Management preferences  The complexity is in the challenges of obtaining reliable data from machines and processes and transforming that data to improve performance.  Join Telit for a webinar to learn how Telit deviceWISE® IIoT platform enables your devices and systems to communicate. With deviceWISE, you can collect and visualize real-time data from any machine without custom code. It can calculate OEE and other KPIs for you to help you maximize production and performance.  Attendees will learn:  OEE formulas and how to calculate them  Use cases for calculating OEE  How to overcome shop floor challenges  Speaker:  Ricardo Buranello, SVP, IoT Platforms Business Unit, Telit Click Here to Register

Python Single vs. Double Quotes — Which Should You Use And Why? by/via Better Data Science

What are the differences between Python single and double quotes?

The 3 Stages in Secure Product Lifecycle Management by Jacob Beningo via @IoT_Central

Nearly every embedded software developer working in the IoT space is now building secure devices. Developers have been mostly focused on how to handle secure applications and the basic microcontroller technologies such as how to use Arms TrustZone or leverage multicore processors. A looming problem that many companies and teams are overlooking is that figuring out how to develop secure applications is just the first step. There are three stages to secure product lifecycle management and in this post, he will review what is involved in each stage.

This is a great blog by Jacob and well worth the effort of reading if you work and are interested in the IoT space. I cannot emphasize enough that care should be taken to properly test and really try to think of everything that can and could go wrong so that you test for them all.

What’s in a Lambda? by Murtaza Ali via @TDataScience

An overview of anonymous functions in Python and why you should use them.

I found this very useful because, to be honest, I've always found them confusing and not so easy to understand. I believe I understand them better now and that there is a time and place to use them.
