SPOT at the PDC
Well, what is SPOT, you may wonder. SPOT stands for Smart Personal Objects Technology and it is all about making day-to-day devices smarter with software that delivers information at the right time and place and on any device. This was one of the themes of today (Wednesday) at the PDC. It was interesting to see the advances that were made in this area and the best thing was Microsoft is working on a version of the CLR for these devices and will probably upgrade VS.NET to support developing for these devices.
Imagine having a watch that runs a small version of the CLR with the garbage collector. Will time stop as the garbage collection is done?? Let's wait and see...
