The article focuses on how embedded computation meets the world wide web to tackle a range of real-world applications. An infinitely accessible web-linked physical environment united by a multitude of tiny servers could mean a life of information ease. Two important trends are converging to help drive the radical transformation of how information flows, include the computer industry's remarkable ability to squeeze ever-more transistors into an ever-smaller area of silicon is increasing the computational abilities of electronic devices, while simultaneously decreasing their cost and power consumption and the proliferation of wired and wireless networking-spurred by development of the web and demand for mobile access, enabling low-cost connectivity among computing devices. The author emphasizes communication technologies that are driving the revolutionary reorganization such as embedded web servers, programming models of Java, applets, Jinni, wireless connectivity, global positional system etc. Distributed sensors and actuators connected through the web's standard protocols and wireless communication media provide a powerful toolkit for developing rich applications such as home automation, health monitoring etc. The synergy fostered by interconnected embedded processors will make the much-touted digital convergence in desktop publishing and entertainment look like a blip in the history of computing technology. The author concludes in stating his expectations in meeting challenges of developing new business models
