Abstract :
Today, a new Internet player is rowing more important: things-that is, inanimate objects that can be programmed to communicate, sense, and interact with other things. But will an increasingly fragile ecosystem be able to sustain the amount of power necessary to run all these gadgets? And what other challenges must we overcome to realize a productive and reliable Internet of Things?
