GOOGLE rachète JAMBOOL

Cette acquisition d'une société spécialisée dans les systèmes de paiement pour jeux sociaux est d'une toute autre portée que le simple ajout de fonctions économiques au futur réseau social « Google Me ».

Consultation on the neutrality of the NET by the French Government

What does Neutrality of the Net mean: in reference to what? How would one measure it? Is it even feasible? Let us try to shed some light on the subject.

Consultation sur la "neutralité du Net"

Que signifie véritablement cette expression, par rapport à quel concept parle-t-on de neutralité ? Comment la mesure-t-on? Mais surtout, est-elle possible ? Tentons d'y voir plus clair.

Quel modèle économique pour l'Internet des Objets ?

Si les objets viennent à porter en eux leur "raison d'être" comme je le rappelais dernièrement, il faudra peut-être leur intégrer des valeurs éthiques nouvelles, sous peine de contribuer à catalyser un certain chaos dans nos systèmes économiques...

Internet des Objets : Objets « connectés », objets « communicants »… ou objets « acteurs » ?

« Communiquer » n’est pas « partager » et, aujourd’hui, si certains moyens évolués de communication existent, ceux du « partage » ne sont pas (encore) déployés.

Very interesting article from Kevin Kelly in WIRED

In a very interesting article from WIRED, Kevin Kelly explains how a "single worldwide computer" will raise from technological evolution.

See : http://www.wired.com/special_multimedia/2008/st_infoporn_1607

I also posted a comment :


One machine” (with a potential finality) or “one system” (with no necessary one) ?

It will be, for sure, a "complex" and non deterministic system made of billions of autonomous and self-decisioned actors (entities) with their own independent finalities.

Referring to "complex systems theories", the question is : "for which global ending ?” - chaotic evolution or targeted direction ?....

In the meanwhile complexity is increasing : it is time to switch to full systemic approaches in the design of our Information systems !

Your comments would be higly appreciated !

Use of “semantic approaches” : for a switch from existing EDI to « Any-to-Any communication » in the Internet of Things (and extending the current “semantic web”)

Intrinsically, the Internet of Things will be « non deterministic », complex and various although, so far, the ongoing standardization models (eg : EPCGlobal) are still apprehending deterministic value chains or processes.....
In such an environment, the use of Semantic approaches will, possibly, give a “meaning” to every kind of message and will accordingly facilitate communications whoever will be the actors, even though they have no prior interchange agreement.

Some thoughts on the “Internet of Things” or so-called “Web 3.0”

Abstract :
''Recently, Vinton Cerf made an association between the raising concept of the Internet of Things (“I-o-T” is an abstract gathering several others such as “M2M”, “sensor, mesh, pervasive or ubiquitous networks”, “EPCGlobal standards”, etc.) and the appellation “WEB 3.0” (seen in an article : www.lemonde.fr, 5th april 2008). Instead of seeing it as a new IT marketing stuff, I’ve tried to sort out what need there would be to use such a word, moreover considering that most people still don’t know what Web 2.0 is…..''

The EPC namespace and the Internet of Things (I-o-T)

Opening the EPC Namespace could make the EPCGlobal network the release candidate for the Internet of Things (WEB 3.0) in case we manage to solve 2 important issues....
