ibm智慧地球的关于智能星球智慧的地球的阐述

It is a pleasure and an honor to be here today in this distinguished assembly, and at this extraordinary moment: a major political transition in the United States, the global economy in flux, our financial markets restructuring themselves—and an acutely felt need for leadership.
Our political leaders aren’t the only ones who’ve been handed a mandate for change. Leaders of businesses and institutions everywhere confront a unique opportunity to transform the way the world works.
We have this chance for reasons no one wished. The crisis in our financial markets has jolted us awake to the realities and dangers of highly complex global systems. But in truth, the first decade of the 21st century has been a series of wake-up calls with a single subject: the reality of global integration.
Two years ago, I published an essay in Foreign Affairs that described the changing structure of the corporation, which I felt had been largely left out of the discussion on globalization. I described the emergence of a new kind of corporation—the globally integrated enterprise, which was replacing the multinational.
Today there is growing consensus that global integration is changing the corporate model and the nature of work itself. But we now see that the movement of information, work and capital across developed and developing nations—as profound as those are—constitute just one aspect of global integration.
In the last few years, our eyes have been opened to global climate change, and to the environmental and geopolitical issues surrounding energy. We have been made aware of global supply chains for food and medicine. And, of course, we entered the new century with the shock to our sense of security delivered by the attacks on 9/11.
These collective realisations have reminded us that we are all now connected—economically, technically and socially. But we’re also learning that being connected is not sufficient. Yes, the world continues to get flatter. And yes, it continues to get smaller and more interconnected. But something is happening that holds even greater potential. In a word, our planet is becoming smarter.
This isn’t just a metaphor. I mean infusing intelligence into the way the world literally works—the systems and processes that enable physical goods to be developed, manufactured, bought and sold... services to be delivered... everything from people and money to oil, water and electrons to move... and billions of people to work and live.
What’s making this possible?
First, our world is becoming instrumented: The transistor, invented 60 years ago, is the basic building block of the digital age. Now, consider a world in which there are a billion transistors per human, each one costing one ten-millionth of a cent. We’ll have that by 2010. There will likely be 4 billion mobile phone subscribers by the end of this year... and 30 billion Radio Frequency Identification tags produced globally within two years. Sensors are being embedded across entire ecosystems—supply-chains, healthcare networks, cities... even natural systems like rivers. Second, our world is becoming interconnected: Very soon there will be 2 billion people on the Internet. But in an instrumented world, systems and objects can now speak to one another, too. Think about the prospect of a trillion connected and intelligent things—cars, appliances, cameras, roadways, pipelines... even pharmaceuticals and livestock. The amount of information produced by the interaction of all those things will be unprecedented. Third, all things are becoming intelligent: New computing models can handle the proliferation of end-user devices, sensors and actuators and connect them with back-end systems. Combined with advanced analytics, those supercomputers can turn mountains of data into intelligence that can be translated into action, making our systems, processes and infrastructures more efficient, more productive and responsive—in a word, smarter. What this means is that the digital and physical infrastructures of the world are converging. Computational power is being put into things we wouldn’t recognize as computers. Indeed, almost anything—any person, any object, any process or any service, for any organization, large or small—can become digitally aware and networked.
With so much technology and networking abundantly available at such low cost, what wouldn’t you enhance? What service wouldn’t you provide a customer, citizen, student or patient? What wouldn’t you connect? What information wouldn’t you mine for insight?
The answer is, you or your competitor—another company, or another city or nation—will do all of that. You will do it because you can—the technology is available and affordable.
But there is another reason we will make our companies, institutions and industries smarter. Because we must. Not just at moments of widespread shock, but integrated into our day-to-day operations. These mundane processes of business, government and life—which are ultimately the source of those surprising crises—are not smart enough to be sustainable.
Consider:
How much energy we waste: According to published reports, the losses of electrical energy because grid systems are not smart range as high as 40 to 70 percent around the world. How gridlocked our cities are: Congested roadways in the U.S. cost $78 billion annually, in the form of 4.2 billion lost hours and 2.9 billion gallons of wasted gas—and that’s not even counting the impact on our air quality. How inefficient our supply chains are: Consumer product and retail industries lose about $40 billion annually, or 3.5 percent of their sales, due to supply chain inefficiencies. How antiquated our healthcare system is: In truth, it isn’t a system at all. It doesn’t link from diagnosis, to drug discovery, to healthcare deliverers, to insurers, to employers. Meanwhile, personal expenditures on health now push more than 100 million people worldwide below the poverty line each year. How our planet’s water supply is drying up: Global water usage has increased six-fold since the 1900s, twice the rate of human population growth. According to the Asian Development Bank, one in five people living today lacks access to safe drinking water, and half the world’s population does not have adequate sanitation. And, of course, the crisis in our financial markets: This will be analyzed for decades, but one thing is already clear. Financial institutions spread risk but weren’t able to track risk—and that uncertainty, that lack of knowing with precision, undermined confidence. It’s obvious, when you consider the trajectories of development driving the planet today, that we’re going to have to run a lot smarter and more efficiently—especially as we seek the next areas of investment to drive economic growth and to move large parts of the global economy out of recession.
Fortunately, we now can. We see this in how companies and institutions are rethinking their systems and applying technology in new ways.
Stockholm’s smart traffic system has resulted in 20 percent less traffic, a 12 percent drop in emissions and a reported 40,000 additional daily users of public transport. Smart traffic systems are strengthening the competitive positions of cities from London to Brisbane to Singapore—with many more being planned. Intelligent oil field technologies can increase both pump performance and well productivity—in a business where only 20-30 percent of available reserves are currently extracted. Smart food systems—such as one now running in the Nordics—can use RFID technology to trace meat and poultry from the farm through the supply chain to supermarket shelves. Smart healthcare can lower the cost of therapy by as much as 90 percent—as ActiveCare Network is doing for more than 2 million patients in 38 states, whom it monitors for the proper delivery of their injections and vaccines. There are many other examples I could cite. Smart systems are transforming energy grids, supply chains and water management. They are ensuring the authenticity of pharmaceuticals and the security of currency exchanges. And they are changing everything from organisations’ business models to how they enable their employees to collaborate and innovate.
And remember, the opportunity to become smarter applies not just to large enterprises, but to smaller and mid-sized companies—the engines of economic growth everywhere. When we think about systems like supply chains, healthcare delivery and food systems, we’re really talking about the interactions of hundreds, even thousands of companies, most of them small.

秋天是一年，因为众所周知，确实秋叶，当黄色，树被风吹走，终于坠入告别聚会，我感觉到深深的秋天。我喜欢秋天，可能是因为他没有这么热的太阳炎热的夏天，冬天结冰，也不喜欢春天，人们的睡眠。秋天的天空是蓝色的，它似乎也高，似乎有一个更广阔的宇宙箔，休闲抬起头来，只是鹅开销行。请记住，哥哥常常带我去秋原离家不远的一个小树林的叶子，各种由我们的家园美丽的叶子，用胶水将它们粘在纸花，盖上一层油膜，一个美丽的图片图片叶在我们的手中标本。
秋天是一年以来,事实上,秋叶已知当黄色,这棵树被风走,最终倒说告别晚会,我觉得深邃的秋天。我喜欢秋天,或许是因为他不是很热的太阳酷热的夏天,冬季结冰,也不喜欢春天,人们睡觉。秋天的天空是蓝色的,也似乎是高的,似乎具有更广阔的宇宙衬托,随意抬头一看,只是一排大雁的开销。记住,哥哥独创性,秋天带我去关在家里一棵垂丝柳树叶、各种由我们美丽的叶子回家,用胶水将他们困在纸上鲜花,盖上一层薄膜,一幅美丽的图画叶子在我们自己手中的标本。又过了几年我们长大了,没有时间去森林里,美好的事物永远不会消失进记忆,而且我爱和渴望。所以每当一辆黄色滑倒在我面前,我将会把它捡起来,回忆他的童年时代,和弟弟在一起。秋天是一个悲哀的,悲哀的季节,秋天告别的时候,树枝标出,鹅离开家从它的北面,南面,今年我才开始我的高中走进校园生活。就像很多,更分的,而我的心充满著喜悦和新奇的、新的生活和快乐。莲花象征代表春天柳树、夏季、冬季及MeiXiang图像显示出什么将会下降得如此漂亮吗?大概肉桂。刚进入秋天,他们能闻到桂花香味随处可见。我们有一个小院子里,在GuiHuaShu每年秋天开花,香气。GuiHuaShu开的花不喜欢那个,也不像玫瑰优雅,他刚刚娇媚的菊花,一颗颗小儿子黄色。GuiHuaShu香会的香味弥漫在距离,靠近急转弯掉了。父亲喜欢桂花,他经常在开花的季节了几枝在家里。上月,当我来到这所学校去看他的父亲,和一些桂花,与以上弦小黄花。我把它放在一杯水,半个月后,但仍应逐渐消除。每年秋天,记忆便成了我的业余时间。通常,尤其是在中间的过去、老师、同学和我花了三年的校园。我不是生在秋天,但秋天我就有一种莫名的向往,我喜欢秋天。秋天的风,水,我喜欢的野生稻黄色的、成熟的、我喜欢秋天的美好回忆我的
