Internet of Things

The realization of the internet of things - a world in which billions of objects will report their location, identity, and history over wireless connections - will require dramatic changes in systems, architectures, and communications. Although RFID has already laid the foundation for this, further research and development is needed to enable such a pervasive networking world, which should be flexible, adaptive, and secure. Reflecting current trends and future directions in the industry, "The Internet of Things" provides a comprehensive technical and practical guide to recent advances in pervasive networked systems through detailed discussions, real-world case studies, and experience reports.
