Future of Networking: "Internet Zero"

| Commentary | M.I.T. researcher Neil Gershenfeld was recently named to the prestigious Scientific American 50 for his work on Internet Zero ("Internet 0" or "I0"). Internet Zero presents an architecture for "interdevice internetworking." This system promises to fully network our computers with our environments using a unified protocol based on Internet Protocol (IP). Even lightbulbs are designed to become I0 nodes. Congratulations, Neil!
