The indepth merging of the Industrial Revolution and the Internet Revolution，results in a new wave of the Industrial Internet revolution.
The Industrial Internet, or Industry 4.0， has attracted great interests from both industry and academia as the fourth industrial revolution due to the rise of recent exponentially growing technologies （e. g.， big data, cloud computing，networking, 3D printing, artificialintelligence, etc. ） For example, different sensor data will be collected and sent to cloud computing for smart decisioning using big data technologies. In manufacturing, 3D printing technology also produces customized products of almost any shape at a lower costs but within a very short duration. The Industrial Internet is often understood as the application of the generic concept of Cyber Physical Systems （CPSs）】，within which the information from all industrial perspectives is closely collected,monitored from the physical space and synchronized with the cyber space. The demand of having information and services everywhere made CPS an
inevitable trend in the highly networked world of today. And today there are many fields of applications for CPS in the industry, such as medical equipment, driving safety and driver assistance systems for automobiles, industrial process control and automation systems, etc. The melding of the physical industrial components，machines, fleets and factories with the advanced modern sensing and networking technologies, and big data analytics opens up tremendous opportunities to accelerate productivity, reduce inefficiency and waste, and enhance the working experience in the production process The Industrial Internet has the potential to bring profound transformation to traditional industries, such as manufacturing, aviation, rail transportation, health care, power generation ， oil and gas development, etc. Overall, the Industrial Internet allows the interconnection and collaboration among devices and people in the industria environment, reduces cost, and improves the productivity.
