Zhu Wang, Chao Chen, Bin Guo, Zhiwen Yu, Xingshe Zhou

Abstract: The Chinese government's Internet Plus action plan aims to integrate mobile Internet, cloud computing, big data, and the Internet of Things (IoT) with traditional industries to promote economic restructuring, improve people's livelihoods, and transform government functions. However, this plan is still in its early stages, and lacks an innovation-driven ecosystem as well as open and customizable platforms. The authors examine Internet Plus's characteristics from six different perspectives and describe possible applications in manufacturing, finance, commerce, transportation, healthcare, and education.
