perfectly applied the
whole earth will be
converted into a huge
brain, which in fact it
is, all things being
particles of a real and
rhythmic whole”…

5. “A dynamic global network infrastructure with self-configuring
capabilities based on standard and interoperable communication
protocols where physical and virtual “things” have identities, physical
attributes, and virtual personalities and use intelligent interfaces, and
are seamlessly integrated into the information network.”, IoT European
Research Cluster (IERC)
“A global network infrastructure, linking physical and virtual objects
through the exploitation of data capture and communication
capabilities. This infrastructure includes existing and evolving Internet
and network developments. It will offer specific object-identification,
sensor and connection capability as the basis for the development of
independent cooperative services and applications. These will be
characterised by a high degree of autonomous data capture, event
transfer, network connectivity and interoperability.”, Coordination and
Support Action for Global RFID-related Activities and Standardization
