Abstract

Today, the vast majority of microprocessors goes into embedded systems which silently sneak into every corner of our everyday life. Until now, many of these processors only support standalone applications (e.g. household appliances), while the technology is there to make these appliances communicate to each other or humans wirelessly. At same time, WAP and HTML offer a general-purpose, interoperable presentation platform for user interfaces. Thus, many people believe that man-machine and machine-machine communication will be the next major paradigm shift for the information society. This article outlines the technology and applications focussing on wireless access protocol (WAP) and Bluetooth technologies
