  1. The Internet and Data Things, Web apps, ubiquitous computing, & ambient intelligence

  2. The Internet of Things • Objects in the world better serve us if computers coordinate their use • Mobile objects are of particular interest • Key technology: RDIF tags • Radio frequency identification • Reader sends out signals, tags respond • Movement of objects can be tracked • Can tell us locations and who is using them

  3. RDIF tags • Cheap • Volume of objects • “inert”, not intelligent objects

  4. Mobility & Intelligence • Objects might be mobile • Users might be mobile • Objects might have limited computing capabilities • We could track the coordinated use of machines • Users of machines could be tracked and coordinated

  5. Uses • Managing a warehouse • Tracking the construction of a large object for a specific user • Cars • Houses

  6. Interfacing with the Web • Objects and users can be managed from a distance • Extends the reach of the web to inert or semi-intelligent & specialized objects

  7. Things and Data • Creates a potentially massive data management problem • Provides for very sophisticated, distributed parts management • Provides opportunities for mining of historical data • Optimization of warehouse, factory processes

  8. The Smart Card Concept • Integrated, intelligent cities • A card with an embedded processor • For residents, visitors, workers • Manage subways, recycling credits • Real-time discounts, directions • New Songdo City, South Korea • “U-City” for ubiquitous computers • City-wide wifi, dynamically-changing bus and subway routes • High-tech central bus district, golf course, etc.

  9. Ambient intelligence • Concept has been around for a while • Idea is that devices tailor their behavior for different users • Big use of embedded computers • Phones, soda machines, smart cards • Smarts of complex devices on assembly lines • Mass produced items, like insulin monitors

  10. Examples • My favorite soda machine • Knows I drink only 20 ounce Pepsis • Maybe every machine in a facility knows my habits • Airport help system • Understands various languages, customs, regulations • Medical imaging machines and doctor record machines can provide integrated data on patients – perhaps patient has a smart car

  11. Ambient Devices and the Web • Ambient devices could be engaged or managed via the web • Embedded machines could initiate web services or trigger information events to web users/managers • Medical data could be integrated on a large scale and done in a real time • Data integration problem, again • Another example of lots of data that we can’t make effective use of yet
