The Internet of Doors - topologies and doorframe computing

Abstract

The presentation discusses a topological approach to the question of location information in increasingly wired buildings and building components. One of the consequences of this approach is to use the thresholds within buildings as not only the position for mathematical descriptions (topologies), but also the physical infrastructure of sensors, actuators and even processors. The presentation describes the processor-cycle and maintenance-cycle advantages of this strategy and presents the challenges in creating a topologically configured intelligent system of systems.
