Hardback. Condition: New. We are facing a future of unbounded complexity. Whether that complexity is harnessed to build a world that is safe, pleasant, humane and profitable, or whether it causes us to careen off a cliff into an abyss of mind-numbing junk is an open question. The challenges and opportunities--technical, business, and human--that this technological sea change will bring are without precedent. Entire industries will be born and others will be laid to ruin as our society navigates this journey. There are already many more computing devices in the world than there are people. In a few more years, their number will climb into the trillions. We put microprocessors into nearly every significant thing that we manufacture, and the cost of routine computing and storage is rapidly becoming negligible. We have literally permeated our world with computation. But more significant than mere numbers is the fact we are quickly figuring out how to make those processors communicate with each other, and with us. We are about to be faced, not with a trillion isolated devices, but with a trillion-node network: a network whose scale and complexity will dwarf that of today's Internet. And, unlike the Internet, this will be a network not of computation that we use, but of computation that we live in. Written by the leaders of one of America's leading pervasive computing design firms, this book gives a no-holds-barred insiders' account of both the promise and the risks of the age of Trillions. It is also a cautionary tale of the head-in-the-sand attitude with which many of today's thought-leaders are at present approaching these issues. Trillions is a field guide to the future--designed to help businesses and their customers prepare to prosper, in the information.

Whether that complexity is harnessed to build a world that is safe, pleasant, humane and profitable, or whether it causes us to careen off a cliff into an abyss of mind-numbing junk is an open question. The challenges and opportunities--technical, business, and human--that this technological sea change will bring are without precedent. Entire industries will be born and others will be laid to ruin as our society navigates this journey. There are already many more computing devices in the world than there are people. In a few more years, their number will climb into the trillions. We put microprocessors into nearly every significant thing that we manufacture, and the cost of routine computing and storage is rapidly becoming negligible. We have literally permeated our world with computation. But more significant than mere numbers is the fact we are quickly figuring out how to make those processors communicate with each other, and with us. We are about to be faced, not with a trillion isolated devices, but with a 'trillion-node network' a network whose scale and complexity will dwarf that of today's Internet. And, unlike the Internet, this will be a network not of computation that we 'use,' but of computation that we 'live in.' Written by the leaders of one of America's leading pervasive computing design firms, this book gives a no-holds-barred insiders' account of both the promise and the risks of the age of Trillions. It is also a cautionary tale of the head-in-the-sand attitude with which many of today's thought-leaders are at present approaching these issues. 'Trillions' is a field guide to the future--designed to help businesses and their customers prepare to prosper, 'in' the information. 'Trillions is an eye-opening book exploring what you need to do to meet the challenge of an information network comprising a trillion or more devices. Filled with diagrams and sidebars offering practical steps, visual case studies, and first person essays to drive home key points, this book exposes the limitations of current technology, inspiring you to meet the coming challenges resulting from the deployment of electronic devices and sensors that will surpass a trillion in number. Describes the upcoming Trillion Node network Explains how brittle our technology infrastructure is--and what we'll need to do to meet the challenge of a trillion or more nodes Offers diagrams, top ten lists, visual case studies, and first person essays Our relationship to information and complexity is evolving in an almost completely unrestrained way. Trillions shows how, done right, pervasive computing can make it possible for individuals and organizations to apprehend the world and its activities as a single system, not only making money for shareholders, but also fostering a more rational and humane world. This book is for anyone interested in helping build, and being part of, that world'-- Book has been inscribed by Mickey McManus one of the authors. nice clean copy.
