从互联网、物联网到地球神经网络——全球互联的未来之路

From Internet, Internet of Things, to Earth Neural Network:The Roadmap of Global Interconnection

该文提出从互联网、物联网到智慧地球,一个由低级到高级、由简单到复杂的地球神经网络(ENN:Earth Neural Network)正在快速进化,文中对其雏形感测网进行了系统的分析和论述,重点研究了开放地理空间联盟的Sensor Web Enablement框架和和微软的SenseWeb实践,最后探讨ENN的进化,论证了智能感测设备和感测网的出现是其演进历程的两个重要事件,以及泛在化、普适化、中枢化的进化趋势,和中枢系统的结构等级化、功能区块化等分化特点,并预测ENN将渗透到人类与自然的发展进程中,普适计算、智能空间和智慧地球也必将深深地依赖于这个网络。

This paper put forward that from Internet,Internet of Things to Smart Planet,an Earth Neural Network(ENN) is rapidly evolv ing from low level to high level and from simple to complex,then systematically discussed its embryo Sensor Web,focusing on the study of Sensor Web Enablement Framework by Open Geospatial Consortium and SenseWeb Practice by Microsoft,part III explored the evolution of ENN,argued that the emergence of Smart Sensing Devices and Sensor Web are two great events in ENN history,as well as the evolving trend of ubiquity,pervasiveness,centralization,and the differentiation characteristics in the central nervous system,such as hierarchical struc ture and partitioned functions,finally predicated that ENN will penetrate into the process of Human and Natural’s development,Ubiqui tous Computing,Smart Space and Smart Planet will rely heavily on this network.
