Abstrak / Deskripsi I suppose the genesis of this book was from long-term interest in connecting computers to the Internet. Back in the early 1990s, I experimented with a variety of single-board computers that would connect, in a fashion, to the Internet and serve up relatively simple web pages. They didn’t have the sophistication or capabilities of today’s single-board systems exemplified by the Raspberry Pi or the BeagleBone Black boards. But they worked and provided useful platforms to experiment using simple computing devices in lieu of full-scale PC-based servers or desktop clients. Roll forward almost twenty years and there are now quite a few highly capable and functional systems, which can easily fulfill the promise of the “Internet of Things,” or IoT for short. I describe the IoT in the first chapter in yet another attempt at defining a somewhat nebulous phrase, which truly means different things to different people. I also took a somewhat different approach with this IoT book in that I used three separate platforms to implement the various demonstration projects. My initial thought was to demonstrate how one platform could have strengths in one area while another would be better suited to another area. However, what I found was that the platforms had much more in common than they were different. In fact, the Raspberry Pi and the BeagleBone Black boards are just about identical from a software prospective. Let me now present a glimpse into what awaits you in this book.
