Features: This book discusses how to add connectivity and develop and deploy application layer protocols for embedded devices. Currently, communication is rapidly becoming a general requirement for embedded systems. In fact, it is difficult to find an embedded system that does not involve external communication. Embedded systems are now sending meter readings over low-bandwidth wireless links to avoid the need for on-site meter reading. GPS technology and wireless links of embedded systems can accurately determine the location, speed, oil pressure, and other parameters of truck fleets in any part of the country. Creating these applications and other network applications is the focus of this book. With a practical guide to TCP/IP application layer protocols, developers will learn how to develop and deploy these protocols in their embedded systems. This book is suitable for handheld device programmers, wireless network programmers, and students and teachers of computer and communication majors in colleges and universities.
