IoE brings a new set of challenges

DISCOVER nearby friendly devices

IDENTIFY services running on those devices

ADAPT to devices coming and going

MANAGE diverse transports

INTEROPERATE across different OSes

EXCHANGE information and services

SECURE against nearby bad actors

How will newly-connected devices and networks…

Ubiquitous connectivity promises to make devices “smart” But ONLY if they speak the same language

Auto Home Consumer goods and appliances

Industrial

당신은 내 말 들려? Tem alguém aí? 100010101011 hello world!

Devices that can’t connect across brands, categories, and operating systems will be left out

Computing devices

Runs on Windows or Linux Machine

CCPU programming is abstracted by C compiler and libraries

CPU can be programmed 100% in C language

C language can be used without the knowledge of the underlying CPU architecture

Optimizing compiler removes the need to do any assembly level optimization

Supports both command line and GUI based development environment

Tools based upon widely used GNU command line utilities and eclipse style IDE environment

Toolchain supports both Windows and Linux platforms

Uses Express Logic’s ThreadX RTOS
