Beschreibungen
<P>Augmented Materials and Smart Objects investigates the issues required to ensure technology platforms capable of being seamlessly integrated into everyday objects, particularly the requirements for integrated computation and MEMs sensors, System-in-a-package solutions, multi-chip modules, the impact of the trend towards embedded microelectronic electronics sub-systems, novel assembly techniques for autonomous MEMs sensors, as well as practical performance issues that are key to the AmI concept.</P>
<P>Also discussed are current requirements for realizing applications-oriented examples of smart objects (e.g. smart textiles, gadgets, integration of smart systems for utility and environmental monitoring, etc); these are based upon heterogeneous systems linking networks of sensors attached to (or physically embedded in) objects with information management systems enabling collections of smart objects to collaborate to provide proactive services to the user.</P>
<P>Finally, Augmented Materials and Smart Objects describes and discusses a number of vision statements strongly relevant to the future development of distributed embedded sensor and actuator platforms for smart objects, and ultimately Ambient Intelligence. The framework for this is the concept of Augmented Materials; these are materials with fully embedded distributed information systems, designed to measure all relevant physical properties and provide a full knowledge representation of the material; in effect, the material would "know" itself, and its current status.</P>

Bridges the gap between microsystems research and the new challenges presented by concepts such as Ambient Intelligence, the Disappearing Computer, and Cooperating Objects Provides a practical approach to the realization of ambient intelligence concepts and discusses the road mapping and scenario development initiatives Investigates the specific implications for the emerging microsystems technologies that will need to be integrated into internet-like heterogeneous systems Analyses the impact of the trend towards embedded microelectronic sub-systems and novel assembly techniques for autonomous MEMs sensors Discusses current requirements for realizing applications-oriented examples of smart objects Reviews new approaches and initiatives in collaborative research that are leading to innovation in both the hardware and software domains. Provides a practical (i.e. based upon demonstrable platforms, prototypes and field trial systems) perspective in reviewing and discussing what has been achieved to date
<P>This investigation of current approaches to developing networkable smart objects for ambient intelligence emphasizes the microsystems and nanoscale devices required to achieve effective smart systems. It reviews the current ongoing research on effectively embedding computing technology into the everyday objects and investigates the form that these microscale and hybrid systems technologies must take for these programs to be successfully realized. The book examines the issues required to ensure that hardware technologies become capable of being seamlessly integrated into everyday objects. This includes studies on the requirements for integrated computation with MEMs sensors and the role of electronics packaging technology platforms, such as system-in-a-package and multi-chip modules, in implementing new, fully embedded, internet-like heterogeneous systems. It also discusses current progress and future directions in realizing applications-oriented smart objects.</P>
