It is aimed at experts in the field, engineering students and lecturers. An accompanying web-site is available including course material, Contiki coding exercises, an author blog and other 6LoWPAN information.

    Hey Zach,
    I’m doing a Masters Project at the moment on 6lowpan security. I’d be interested in having a look through your book so if you require it to be proof read let me know.

    Regards

    Mike

    Thanks Mike, we will keep you in mind. Security is an area that needs plenty of work in the 6lowpan wg, so your help is definitely welcome there.

    Hello Zach,
    I’m working on energy-efficient reliable protocol for IP-based wireless sensor network. I’d use Contiki in my research and thus I’d have as soon as possible your book.

    Best regards,

    Ahmed

    Hamid,

    We have a whole section on SNMP including references to your drafts. Thanks! Your work on SNMP and the MIB is important. Jennic is also using their own protocol called SNAP, which is sort of modeled on SNMP.

    Regarding pre-ordering, thanks ;-) After Wiley officially puts the book up on http://www.wiley.com it will be possible to pre-order on-line there. That should be after a month or so. I’ll post a blog entry when it goes live.
