Explore the evolution of real-time systems that harness vast data streams through ubiquity in sensor networks. This transformative approach emphasizes continuous observation, automated learning, and instant decision-making across full-scale environments. Delve into historical milestones like MIT's Whirlwind and LINC, which set the foundation for today's adaptive, interactive models. By simulating systems from aircraft to biomedical research, we engage in a process that blends context, analysis, and actionable insights, prompting questions about 'what if' scenarios in an ever-evolving landscape.

Time Frames and Operation Rates • Observation time – measure, discriminate • Analysis time – communicate, contextualize, understand • Decision time – choose, formulate, distribute • Action time – energize,drive
It all begins with simulation… Model of System e.g. airplane Simulator with Human Sensors* *Sensors may be people
MIT Whirlwind (c1951) first real time computer. Begot SAGE (Semi-Automatic Ground Environment)
Wes Clark, Lincoln Laboratory, and LINC, first PC. LINC: Laboratory Instrument Computer c. 1962Real time processing for bio-medical research.
