Microsoft Invisible Computing is a toolkit for building systems for invisible computing and embedded web services.<\/p>\n
Microsoft Invisible Computing is a research prototype for making small devices part of the seamless computing world. It is available free of charge for research and educational use under the Microsoft Shared Source License.<\/p>\n
Microsoft Invisible Computing consists of compact middleware for constructing embedded web services applications and a small component based Real-Time Operating System with TCP\/IP networking to make middleware run straight on the metal on several embedded processors.<\/p>\n
The goal is to make it easy to build custom smart devices and consumer electronics, especially battery operated; and to support research in invisible and reconfigurable computing, embedded services, operating systems, networking, ubiquitous computing, sensor\/robotic nets, distributed systems, object-oriented design, and wireless communication.<\/p>\n\t
