Apress is proud to announce that Rethinking the Internet of Things was a 2014 Jolt Award Finalist, the highest honor for a programming book. And the amazing part is that there is no code in the book.
Over the next decade, most devices connected to the Internet will not be used by people in the familiar way that personal computers, tablets and smart phones are. Billions of interconnected devices will be monitoring the environment, transportation systems, factories, farms, forests, utilities, soil and weather conditions, oceans and resources.
Many of these sensors and actuators will be networked into autonomous sets, with much of the information being exchanged machine-to-machine directly and without human involvement. Machine-to-machine communications are typically terse. Most sensors and actuators will report or act upon small pieces of information - "chirps". Burdening these devices with current network protocol stacks is inefficient, unnecessary and unduly increases their cost of ownership.
This must change. The architecture of the Internet of Things must evolve now by incorporating simpler protocols toward at the edges of the network, or remain forever inefficient. Rethinking the Internet of Things describes reasons why we must rethink current approaches to the Internet of Things. Appropriate architectures that will coexist with existing networking protocols are described in detail. An architecture comprised of integrator functions, propagator nodes, and end devices, along with their interactions, is explored.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
Apress很自豪地宣布，《重新思考物聯網》是2014年Jolt獎的入圍作品，這是一本程式設計書籍的最高榮譽。令人驚訝的是，這本書中沒有任何程式碼。
在未來的十年裡，大多數連接到互聯網的設備將不會像個人電腦、平板電腦和智能手機那樣由人們使用。數十億個相互連接的設備將監測環境、交通系統、工廠、農場、森林、公用事業、土壤和天氣條件、海洋和資源。
其中許多傳感器和執行器將被網絡化為自主集合，其中大部分信息將直接在機器之間交換，無需人類參與。機器之間的通信通常是簡潔的。大多數傳感器和執行器將報告或執行小塊信息 - "chirps"。給這些設備加上當前的網絡協議堆疊是低效、不必要的，並且不必要地增加了它們的擁有成本。
這種情況必須改變。物聯網的架構必須立即演變，以在網絡的邊緣採用更簡單的協議，否則將永遠低效。《重新思考物聯網》描述了我們必須重新思考當前物聯網方法的原因。詳細介紹了與現有網絡協議共存的適當架構。探討了由整合器功能、傳播器節點和終端設備組成的架構，以及它們之間的互動。
