Yet, the technology that we depend upon is often not fully understood by those not specialized in the field.Books about technology can intimidating. This book has been written to be approachable and easy to understand. It provides an introduction to a host of technologies and trends that explain our technological present and our technological future. It attempts to strike a balance between providing educational content, but in plain language with a little bit of prognostication thrown in for good measure.There is a constant barrage of new technologies but the plain language that describes them as well as their implications is often illusive. And, with these new technologies come new questions. Will there be a robot uprising? Will we be able to grow enough food in the future? Should I be worried about my privacy? What is artificial intelligence anyway? Will we ultimately merge with technology?While this book touches on many of the technical aspects of these technologies, it has been written to be approachable and does not presuppose a deep technical background on behalf of the reader.The book starts with a day in the life of Sally, who lives a few years in the future. It then goes on to explain the technologies that brought us to this point as well as those that will create that future. Set against the backdrop of two colliding technologies - artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things, this book explores and educates the reader on a host of technologies that are transforming the world.From the background and history that brought us to this point, to the technologies driving this transformation, to the implications it will have for humanity and the opportunities it will provide, this book explores this coming era.About the author: I have spent my career in the technology field and have traveled the globe talking to executives, organizations, students, and the press about technology trends and their impact on our lives. A consistent question is always posed - where can I learn more about these topics? I decided to write a book that I could not find. One rich with information about the technologies that are shaping our lives, but most importantly, a book that was approachable, and easy to read. I have lived in Silicon Valley most of my life and have worked in large technology companies as well as start-ups. I have worn many hats, from engineer to CTO, entrepreneur to professor, programmer to CIO, and even a futurist. I love technology and hold numerous patents in fields such as the Internet of Things (IoT), connected cars, networking technologies, virtual people, mobile phone technologies, virtual spaces, and more. But, most of all I care about how technology is used to improve the human condition.

Download or read book Interconnecting Smart Objects with IP written by Jean-Philippe Vasseur and published by Morgan Kaufmann. This book was released on 2010-07-06 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interconnecting Smart Objects with IP: The Next Internet explains why the Internet Protocol (IP) has become the protocol of choice for smart object networks. IP has successfully demonstrated the ability to interconnect billions of digital systems on the global Internet and in private IP networks. Once smart objects can be easily interconnected, a whole new class of smart object systems can begin to evolve. The book discusses how IP-based smart object networks are being designed and deployed. The book is organized into three parts. Part 1 demonstrates why the IP architecture is well suited to smart object networks, in contrast to non-IP based sensor network or other proprietary systems that interconnect to IP networks (e.g. the public Internet of private IP networks) via hard-to-manage and expensive multi-protocol translation gateways that scale poorly. Part 2 examines protocols and algorithms, including smart objects and the low power link layers technologies used in these networks. Part 3 describes the following smart object network applications: smart grid, industrial automation, smart cities and urban networks, home automation, building automation, structural health monitoring, and container tracking. Shows in detail how connecting smart objects impacts our lives with practical implementation examples and case studies Provides an in depth understanding of the technological and architectural aspects underlying smart objects technology Offers an in-depth examination of relevant IP protocols to build large scale smart object networks in support of a myriad of new services

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guided tour of the physical Internet, as seen on, above, and below the city’s streets What does the Internet look like? It’s the single most essentail aspect of modern life, and yet, for many of us, the Internet looks like an open browser, or the black mirrors of our phones and computers. But in Networks of New York, Ingrid Burrington lifts our eyes from our screens to the streets, showing us that the Internet is everywhere around us, all the time—we just have to know where to look. Using New York as her point of reference and more than fifty color illustrations as her map, Burrington takes us on a tour of the urban network: She decodes spray-painted sidewalk markings, reveals the history behind cryptic manhole covers, shuffles us past subway cameras and giant carrier hotels, and peppers our journey with background stories about the NYPD's surveillance apparatus, twentieth-century telecommunication monopolies, high frequency trading on Wall Street, and the downtown building that houses the offices of both Google and the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force. From a rising star in the field of tech jounalism, Networks of New York is a smart, funny, and beautifully designed guide to the endlessly fascinating networks of urban Internet infrastructure. The Internet, Burrington shows us, is hiding in plain sight.
