  2. Fog computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fog_computing

    The OpenFog Consortium was an association of major tech companies aimed at standardizing and promoting fog computing.. Fog computing [1] [2] or fog networking, also known as fogging, [3] [4] is an architecture that uses edge devices to carry out a substantial amount of computation (edge computing), storage, and communication locally and routed over the Internet backbone.

  3. Fog robotics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fog_robotics

    Fog robotics mainly consists of a fog robot server and the cloud. [3] It acts as a companion to cloud by shoving the data near to the user with the help of a local server. . Moreover, these servers are adaptable, consists of processing power for computation, network capability, and secured by sharing the outcomes to other robots for advanced performance with the lowest possible late

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utility_fog

    Hall and his correspondents soon realized that utility fog could be manufactured en masse to occupy the entire atmosphere of a planet and replace any physical instrumentality necessary to human life. By foglets exerting concerted force, an object or human could be carried from location to location.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenFog_Consortium

    The idea for a consortium centered on the advancement and dissemination of fog computing was thought up by Helder Antunes, a Cisco executive with a history in IoT, Mung Chiang, then a Princeton University professor and now President of Purdue University, [13] and Dr. Tao Zhang, a Cisco Distinguished Engineer and CIO for the IEEE Communications ...

    Fog computing is a viable alternative to prevent such a large burst of data flow through the Internet. [144] The edge devices ' computation power to analyze and process data is extremely limited. Limited processing power is a key attribute of IoT devices as their purpose is to supply data about physical objects while remaining autonomous.

  7. Smartdust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smartdust

    Smartdust [1] is a system of many tiny microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) such as sensors, robots, or other devices, that can detect, for example, light, temperature, vibration, magnetism, or chemicals.

  8. Green computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_computing

    The efficiency of algorithms affects the amount of computer resources required for any given computing function and there are many efficiency trade-offs in writing programs. Algorithm changes, such as switching from a slow (e.g. linear) search algorithm to a fast (e.g. hashed or indexed) search algorithm can reduce resource usage for a given ...

  9. Natural computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_computing

    Natural computing, [1] [2] also called natural computation, is a terminology introduced to encompass three classes of methods: 1) those that take inspiration from nature for the development of novel problem-solving techniques; 2) those that are based on the use of computers to synthesize natural phenomena; and 3) those that employ natural materials (e.g., molecules) to compute.
