Wind fans may enjoy this excellent series The Networked Marketplace eet.com Many of the articles written by Wind partners; one by a Wind employee From the intro "The power of ubiquitous computing is around the corner. Embedded computing is beginning to enter more and more settings: networked appliances with their own IP addresses in the home; automated factories and hospitals, monitored and controlled full-time over a network; wireless Net-based information and entertainment in the car, boat and plane; e-education; and, further out, personal local-area networks that literally reside on one’s self. The necessary enabling technologies, from faster processors to larger memories and content-specific software, are already here, and already starting to permeate our lives: By some estimates, a phenomenal 98 percent of all processors on the planet are not used in traditional desktop computer systems, but in household appliances, vehicles and machines on factory floors. In this, the third special of our "Millennium Series: The Century of the Engineer," EE Times editors explore five areas that are becoming the active spokes of our global network wheel: home automation, automotive electronics, automated manufacturing, distributed education and remote medical care. Contributed articles from industry experts complement the staff-written reports. Together they paint a picture of an emerging networked marketplace that is growing more capable, and more omnipresent, by the day. " Seems like it could have been lifted from Wind's home page
