SOTI Inc. develops world-leading technology that solves the unique challenges involved in managing,securing, supporting and tracking remote mobile and desktop computing devices. Today, more than 12,000customers around the world - in retail, manufacturing, healthcare, government, logistics and numerous other industries - rely on SOTI software products within the mobile device management industry. As the SOTI'splatform runs mostly on mobile devices, it is important for SOTI to look after the health of devices. Theproposed research in life cycle management of mobile devices will help in two ways: a) monitor the physical health of devices using built-in sensors of a smartphone and b) monitor network security and safeguard from malicious threats using on-device computing in the form of fog or edge computing. This proposed researchinvolves building on the strong relationship established between Sheridan College and SOTI Inc. throughprevious NSERC grants. We envision continuing the rich collaboration established with SOTI by developing innovative solutions for mobile devices in the area of life cycle management. The benefits of the proposedresearch include technology solutions that will showcase potential pathways to innovation andcommercialization for SOTI and their clients. The outcome of this research will provide SOTI's client withcomplete health information about their mobile devices so that it can perform optimally. Along with thephysical health, the proposed solution will also look after network security so clients can be aware of theirnetwork connectivity and potential threats. The benefits to the research discipline include new knowledge and expertise that can be disseminated and transferred to Canadian companies locally, regionally, provincially, and nationally.

SOTI公司开发世界领先的技术，解决了管理、保护、支持和跟踪远程移动和桌面计算设备所面临的独特挑战。如今，全球有超过12,000家客户——来自零售、制造、医疗保健、政府、物流和许多其他行业——在移动设备管理行业中依赖SOTI软件产品。由于SOTI的平台主要运行在移动设备上，因此对SOTI来说，关注设备的健康状况非常重要。拟议的移动设备生命周期管理研究将在两个方面提供帮助：a)使用智能手机的内置传感器监控设备的物理健康状况；b)使用雾或边缘计算形式的设备上计算监控网络安全和防范恶意威胁。这项拟议的研究涉及建立在谢里登学院和SOTI公司之间通过以前的NSERC资助建立的牢固关系。我们希望通过开发生命周期管理领域的移动设备创新解决方案，继续与SOTI建立丰富的合作关系。拟议研究的好处包括技术解决方案，将为SOTI及其客户展示创新和商业化的潜在途径。这项研究的结果将为SOTI的客户提供有关其移动设备的完整健康信息，以便它能够最佳地执行。除了身体健康，该解决方案还将关注网络安全，这样客户就可以意识到他们的网络连接和潜在的威胁。研究学科的好处包括新的知识和专业知识，这些知识和专业知识可以传播并转移给当地、地区、省和全国的加拿大公司。
