Routing protocols designed for low power and lossy networks (LLNs) have become pivotal in realising the vast potential of the Internet of Things (IoT) and wireless sensor systems. These protocols, ...

The routing of data from source to sink is an integral part of any large-scale wireless sensing and Internet of Things (IoT) solution. Unplugged and/or mobile embedded devices used in such low-powered ...

One glaring problem with IPv4 is that it supports only 4.2 billion possible addresses while, by some estimates, the number of internet-connected devices is expected to grow to 28.5 billion by 2022.

The approach would enable systems of low-power embedded devices to be connected and managed seamlessly under the IP umbrella regardless of the type of physical links on which they are connected. A new ...

6LoWPAN consists of low power devices hat conform to IEEE 802.15.4 and uses the address scheme of IPV6. It is defined by IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force). It enables the integration of IPV6 and ...

IPv6 is the long-anticipated upgrade to the Internet’s main communications protocol, which is known as IPv4. Here’s what you need to know about IPv6. IPv6 is the long-anticipated upgrade to the ...

In a project that has taken longer than company engineers anticipated, Google is rolling out IPv6 across its entire internal employee network. Google network engineer Irena Nikolova discussed the ...
