7. Implementation
• Latest version of uIPv6, are integrated with Contiki.
• An open-source operating system for the Internet of Things
• Actually uIP stack is designed for small computer system with no operating system.

8. Operations
• Called in a timed loop.
• Then call manages other network behavior.
• uIP calls the hardware driver to sent the packet of data.
• uIP build the packet before.
• It used packet buffer in a half-duplex way for transmission and reception.
• If needs to retransmit, its just call the application code to sent previous data.

9. Connection Management
• Have one task per connection
• Task communicates with a task in a distant computer on the other end.
• Connections are held in an array.
• On each call, uIP tries to serve a connection.
• Making a subroutine call to responds to, or sends data

10. Advantage
• Throughput speed
• Minimum RAM usage
• Minimum CPU usage
• Work with tiny 8- and 16-bit microcontrollers
• The uIP stack uses less then 10kB ROM and 2kB RAM and Contiki can easily fit in 100kB.
ROM and 10kB RAM.

11. Weaknesses
uIP system can start a responding packet before the PC is ready to receive it.

12. Conclusion
• Micro IP (µIP) is widely used TCP / IP network protocol.
• Its used for its lightness.
• Its need low memory and processing speed.
• Some micro IP device can communicate faster then normal PC.
