Disruptive by Design: Nano Now
Abstract:
The drive toward increasingly capable, low-cost nanotechnologies will follow a trajectory similar to many macroscale products. The challenges associated with the Internet of Things will only increase. Demands for bandwidth, self-healing connectivity and security will force communicators to develop solutions.
