On the Internet of Things

We have kicked off a new effort at the IETF called 6LowApp. The goal is to develop application protocols for resource-constrained embedded devices and networks. Now that 6LoWPAN and ROLL are providing a framework for wireless embedded IP networking, the next fronteir is suitable application protocols for discovery, management and data transfer.
