Designing Embedded Internet Devices

Description:

Embedded internet and internet appliances are the focus of great attention in the computing industry, as they are seen as the future of computing. The design of such devices presents many technical challenges. This book is the first guide available that describes how to design internet access and communications capabilities into embedded systems. It takes an integrated hardware/software approach using the Java programming language and industry-standard microcontrollers. Numerous illustrations and code examples enliven the text. This book shows how to build various sensors and control devices that connect to the TINI interfaces, explains how to write programs that control them in Java, and then ties them all together in practical applications. Included is a discussion on how these technologies work, where to get detailed specifications, and ideas for the reader to pursue beyond the book. The accompanying CDROM includes Java source code for all the applications described in the book, as well as an electronic version of the text.

Table of Contents:

Introduction to the Embedded Internet; Client/Server Concepts; Java For Embedded Applications; The Tiny Internet Interface (TINI) System; Using TINI With The 8051 Microcontroller; Using The One-Wire Bus (OWB); The Controller Area Network; TINI Serial And Parallel Ports; Sensors And Actuators; Design Examples.

描述：
嵌入式互聯網和互聯網設備是計算機行業關注的焦點，因為它們被視為計算機的未來。設計這些設備面臨許多技術挑戰。這本書是目前唯一一本描述如何將互聯網訪問和通信功能設計到嵌入式系統中的指南。它採用了一種集成的硬件/軟件方法，使用Java編程語言和行業標準的微控制器。大量的插圖和代碼示例使文本更生動。本書展示了如何構建連接到TINI接口的各種傳感器和控制設備，解釋了如何使用Java編寫控制它們的程序，然後將它們結合在實際應用中。書中還討論了這些技術的工作原理，獲取詳細規格的方法，以及讀者在閱讀本書後可以追求的想法。附帶的CD-ROM包含了本書中描述的所有應用程序的Java源代碼，以及電子版本的文本。
