My personal cloud is formed by a constellation of persistent computational objects -- picos

Tuesday, November 5, 13

Picos are online computersIdentity—they represent a specific entityStorage—they persistently encapsulate both structured and unstructured dataOpen event network—they respond to eventsProcessing—they run applications autonomouslyEvent Channels—they have connections to other picosAPIs—they provide access to and access other online services
