How does the Internet of Things (IoT) impact CPS Node Energy Management?

The Internet of Things (IoT) significantly impacts CPS (Cyber-Physical Systems) Node Energy Management by enhancing connectivity and intelligence. With IoT, devices and systems can communicate with each other in real time, allowing for greater data exchange and analysis. This connectivity enables CPS nodes to gather data from various sources, such as sensors and smart appliances, leading to more informed decision-making and improved energy efficiency.

Additionally, the intelligence brought by IoT allows these systems to analyze energy consumption patterns, optimize energy use, and automate processes based on real-time data. For instance, IoT can facilitate demand response strategies, where energy usage is adjusted based on the current supply conditions or operational needs, helping to balance the grid and reduce energy costs. This interconnected and responsive energy management system leads to better resource utilization, lower operational costs, and a more sustainable approach to energy consumption.
