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 Inc. 开发世界领先的技术，解决管理、保护、支持和跟踪远程移动和桌面计算设备所涉及的独特挑战。如今，全球有超过 12,000 个客户（零售、制造、医疗保健、政府、物流和众多其他行业）在移动设备管理行业中依赖 SOTI 软件产品。由于 SOTI 的平台主要在移动设备上运行，因此 SOTI 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）使用设备上的计算形式监控网络安全并防范恶意威胁雾或边缘计算。这项拟议的研究涉及谢里登学院和 SOTI Inc. 通过之前的 NSERC 拨款建立的牢固关系。我们希望通过在生命周期管理领域为移动设备开发创新解决方案，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，以便其能够发挥最佳性能。除了物理健康之外，拟议的解决方案还将关注网络安全，以便客户可以了解其网络连接和潜在威胁。研究学科的好处包括可以在当地、地区、省和国家范围内传播和转让给加拿大公司的新知识和专业知识。
