Smart cities need open data governance As the vision of creating a smart city using IoT and integrated communication technology has turned into reality, the access to meaningful data or open data has become a core demand. This meaningful data is the key to smart city development. Access to meaningful data will provide the people of smart cities with a citizen-specific and contextualized service environment.

Cities can use an open data framework to tailor it to their specific needs. This can be a city’s infrastructure expansion, making policies or determining the investment levels for technology…

3 industries that are using 3D printing software to change the world! 3D printing is creating new commercial and industrial objects by removing time, expense and complexity from the process. Traditional fabrication methods where experts had to create individualized moulds, assemble multiple components, and construct items from multiple pieces, are no longer needed. This process involved many different materials, a wide variety of highly trained workers, and several expensive trials before the perfect object was finally created. But 3D printing just needs a sample created by factory for testing and the printers can create the items from three-dimensional CAD drawings.

According to a 2013 report by MarketsandMarkets, the 3D printing field is expected to grow more than 14% annually to become an $8.4 billion industry by 2020. As per the…

6 parameters to use when evaluating 3D printing software The 3D printing technology is using different materials and processes, each of which has distinct strengths and limitations. By evaluating your software you can determine whether the acquisition of a 3D printer is the right move for you. Once you have made that determination, thoroughly evaluate your needs against what is available. You must assess whether there are hidden costs or extras that have not been discussed in any publications or presented by the vendor.

There are numerous different aspects that must be considered ahead of a decision to deploy 3D print workflow software. The following are the parameters you must consider while evaluating 3D…
