| Review: | We live in a digital age and one of the main uses of digital technology is communication. The development of broadband to the home offers not only fast ‘always on’ Internet, but new applications and services can be used over this fast link. The book, for engineers and others who work in the communications industry, covers how the home is connected to the external network; how devices and applications are connected within the home; how people relate to technology in the home and how their needs can be met; how applications are being developed to take advantage of digital technology; and, finally, the authors give their view of the future digital home. |
