Application Atlas Application Atlas Edge AI and IoT Solutions V1.1 Agora Solutions Our Mission At Agora, we have embarked on a mission to digitize field operations by deploying edge AI solutions to improve productivity and sustainability The oil and gas industry has been a driving force for the growth of humankind over several decades but immense pressure on gaining efficiency and operating at low cost has forced the industry to use digital technologies to transform itself. To improve productivity and sustainability in oil and gas, the emergence of edge AI and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) technology are defining the next wave of digital transformation. With these innovative new technologies, we can gather more data types, in addition to the sensor-generated information (i.e. video, images, audio), to derive intelligence from a variety of data, while also enabling the ability to act in real time. At Agora, we created an intelligent computing layer around legacy equipment on the operational site itself using AI, data, and domain science. By utilizing these distributed intelligent oilfield sites, we are addressing challenges associated with IIoT and centralized computing systems in the cloud. In another words, we are converting oilfield equipment into intelligent things. These intelligent things—which could be a pump, a compressor, or production system; are connected to a cloud services for orchestration—thus providing a true Internet of Intelligent Things (IoIT). We believe that, Internet of Intelligent Things also synonymous with Intelligent Asset Solution or Artificial Intelligence of Things, will drive the much-needed productivity gains and will reduce the greenhouse gases emissions and footprints in field operations. 2 V1.1 Agora Solutions DYNAMIC INTELLIGENCE AT THE EDGE Safety & Sustainability

The operator’s goal An operator wanted to reduce HSE exposure of technicians who travel to a remote rig for manual data acquisition of analog gauges. There wasn’t a distributed control system on the rig, resulting in inefficient process surveillance for immediate intervention and optimization. Because of the manual process to collect the gauge data, there was a lack of continuous processing of the variable data, so troubleshooting and optimization were limited. What Agora provided Agora deployed cameras, connected to the AgoraGateway, to enable real-time visualization of analog gauge data on the A camera is positioned rig. The cameras were positioned facing facing the analog gauge, the multiple analog gauges to enable providing a continuous reading the production on the rig. Agora feed to the AgoraGateway then applied a machine learning algorithm running

Created in 1990 by Tim Berners- Lee, the web quickly became the most used hypertext system in the world, and most browsers default to indicating hyperlinks with an underline. To answer the question of why the underline was chosen over competing demarcation techniques, the thesis applies the methods of history of technology and sociology of technology. Before the invention of the web, the underline–also known as the vinculum–was used in many contexts in writing systems; collecting entities together to form a whole and ascribing additional meaning to the content.

    A Man and His Vision for the Browser http://www.eweek.com/print_article2/0,1217,a=167407,00.asp A Man and His Vision for the Browser December 25, 2005 Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web in 1989 and introduced the first Web client in 1990, touching off a technological revolution that continues to play out in today's rapidly evolving Internet space. The inventor and self-proclaimed "user interface engineer" continues to help guide development of the Web and related technologies from his position as director of the W3C (Worldwide Web Consortium) and senior researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's CSAIL (Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory). RELATED LINKS Browser Success Can't Be Measured in Market Share Apple Plugs Critical Safari Browser Flaws Firefox Blazes New Browser Trail MS Details More IE 7 Security Goodies Firefox Faces Uphill Battle, Analysts Predict Much of this work currently revolves around his concept for a more abstract, data-oriented online communications network, or what he calls the Symantec Web. Berners-Lee recently spoke with eWeek.com Senior Writer Matt Hines about the current state of Web browsing technologies and further outlined his plans for improving the software to help make his vision for the future a reality. Since launching the first Web client in 1990, the browser software arena has evolved in a lot of different ways. Is there anything about all of the different browser development that's been done to this point that really surprises you? When I wrote the browser, people were using documents with wizzywig editors, so I really assumed that what people were going to use for preparing content was wizzywig, or what you see is what you get.

  • Why Websites Can Change Without Warning
    Why Websites Can Change Without Warning WHY WOULD MY WEBSITE LOOK DIFFERENT WITHOUT NOTICE? HISTORY: Your website is a series of files & databases. Websites used to be “static” because ​ there were only a few ways to view them. Now we have a complex system, and telling your webmaster what device, operating system and browser is crucial, here’s why: TERMINOLOGY: You have a desktop or mobile “device”. Desktop computers and mobile ​ ​ ​ devices have “operating systems” which are software. To see your website, you’ll pull up a ​ ​ ​ ​ “browser” which is also software, to surf the Internet. Your website is a series of files that ​ ​ needs to be 100% compatible with all devices, operating systems and browsers. Your website is built on WordPress and gets a weekly check up (sometimes more often) to ​ ​ ​ see if any changes have occured. Your site could also be attacked with bad files, links, spam, comments and other annoying internet pests! Or other components will suddenly need updating which is nothing out of the ordinary. WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE IF SOMETHING HAS CHANGED? Any update to the following can make your website look differently: There are 85 operating ​ systems (OS) that can update (without warning). And any of the most popular roughly 7 ​ ​ ​ browsers also update regularly which can affect your site visually and other ways. (Lists below) ​ Now, with an OS or browser update, your site’s 18 website components likely will need ​ ​ updating too. Once website updates are implemented, there are currently about 21 mobile ​ devices, and 141 desktop devices that need to be viewed for compatibility.
