Red Hat JBoss A-MQ - A-MQ in Internet of Things, Sensor transmitting vital signal to Biomedical dashboard via AMQP
From Wiki,
"The term Internet of Things was proposed by Kevin Ashton in 1999,... it originally refers to uniquely identifiable objects and their virtual representations in an Internet-like structure. ...... Today however, the term Internet of Things is used to denote advanced connectivity of devices, systems and services that goes beyond the traditional machine-to-machine (M2M) and covers a variety of protocols, domains and applications."
From my understanding, is that more and more light weight, hand carry device or smart appliance are produce and manufactured.
