Edge computing and IoT standardization unlock real-time crisis response and healthcare adoption

Murray argues that edge computing and real-time IoT-AI systems are transformative infrastructure for disaster management in vulnerable communities, not optional enhancements. He further contends that federal standardization of connected medical devices is the critical lever needed to accelerate IoT adoption across U.S. healthcare and beyond.
