Preface

Have you ever thought of the Internet as a ‘Thing’? A physical object that you can hold, measure the dimensions, visualize and so on. You may suggest that the Internet is a combination of physically and non-physically existent ‘Things’ such as communication rules, messages, information sent from A to B, which is also true. But how many of you think of cables and satellites, when you send an e-mail or start a video conference? Actually we use a ‘Thing’ to do that, a global ‘Thing’ that has physical and non-physical components. However, regardless of the technology behind it, we concentrate on if it gets the job done, and mostly it does. Thus the main focus is not on the ‘Thing’ itself, but on information, and it concerns the success of the sharing and exchange of information. Do you think this vision is enough? Maybe not, we also want to receive information as soon as something happens. We want real-time information. Actu
