Internet 0
Internet 0 is today what is known to be the “protocol” that in a not too far future will enable to interconnect the components of a future “intelligent house”. In this way for example, the virtual clock could be able to “tell” the coffee machine when to prepare coffee.
This communication system has been developed by Neil Gershenfeld, director of the “Bit and atom center of MIT”. His idea is based in that a web of small devices doesn't need incredible speed, neither a potent server.
In fact, the cost of the micro controllers that this “protocol” implements is less than 2 dollars. With Internet 0 things just as the lights or the security system of a house can be controlled from your mobile.
Internet 2
Internet 2 is a group formed by hundreds of universities that is searching the way to create a high tech web that will be used for example, to create virtual laboratories.
To achieve this, the web in the Internet 2 must be faster than normal. A team from the Tokyo University, has been able to recently transmit data with a speed of 9,08 gigabytes per second, this is the equivalent to having downloaded a full DVD in just one second!
