Tao, Zen, and Tomorrow
Change is the law of life and those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future. John F. Kennedy You may have already noticed, but SIP Adventures has a new name – Tao, Zen, and Tomorrow. I began this blog by writing just about everything I knew about SIP, […]
Creating Wow With Avaya OneCloud CPaaS Applications
The telephone, which interrupts the most serious conversations and cuts short the most weighty observations, has a romance of its own. – Virginia Woolf I have been writing communications software since the 1980s. I began working with proprietary protocols such as Northern Telecom’s Meridian Link and Applications Module Link before moving to “standards” such as […]
Another Demonstration of my IoT Workflow Software
Here is my friend, Thomas Roemer of Avaya, with another demonstration of IoT in action. In this video, he is running my IoT workflow tasks (plus several others I created) from the Avaya CPaaS cloud platform (formerly known as Zang). Cool stuff!
Using AI and IoT to Orchestrate Smart Parking
I have been a “professional” programmer since 1983 (yes, I am that old) and still get a kick out of seeing how other people use my software. In this case, Thomas Roemer from Avaya has created a smart parking solution that employs the artificial intelligence and IoT integration software I created. It’s a cool video […]
Building IoT Bots With CloudHawk and Google Home
I have been programming since I was a senior at Coronado High way back in 1975. Yes, I am that old. While today’s projects are light years beyond the simple things I once wrote in BASIC and Fortran, the thrill of creating something amazing out of a bunch of number and letters is still just […]
The ABCs of an IoT Architecture
It’s easy to learn how to drive a car without understanding how an internal combustion engine works. The same can be said about many of the machines and devices that we take for granted. Who among us can explain how an air conditioner cools a room? I expect that most people cannot. We typically learn […]
Cops and Robbers IoT
Once again, my friends at Avaya have done really cool things with my IoT software!
Visualizing IoT
Those of you who know me from my technical, nerdy life know that I love protocols. It’s true. I simply adore bits, bytes, request messages, responses, ACKs, and message bodies. I take great pleasure from looking through a complicated Wireshark trace and knowing exactly what a particular header value means and why it was used. […]
The Internet of Things Comes to Legoland
Avaya has been very busy creating Breeze workflows with my IoT software and the most engaging uses of my work can be found in their Lego Smart City. It’s impressive how little blocks of plastic can be so successful at presenting IoT in ways that everyone can relate to. Here are two videos that demonstrate […]
Visualizing The Internet of Things
It’s important to know one’s limitations. For example, I consider myself a pretty good computer programmer. I love problem solving and turning abstract concepts into lines of code. Over the years, I have written everything from SIP-based communication services to hard disk interrupt processors. However, I am not good at writing software that people can […]
