Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

An electric SUV? That's shocking
If pioneering work by a Reno company proves as significant as its officers claim, though, it could take some of the sting out of protecting the planet.
Altairnano (for nanotechnology; see the sidebar) rolled out its new all-electric sport-utility vehicle for shareholders at the Grand Sierra Resort last week. Most came away impressed -- and optimistic.

Getaway driver convicted of murder tells high court he didn't know killer had gun
SALT LAKE CITY — The getaway driver in the 2007 murder of a hair salon owner says he was unaware that a violent crime was about to happen and wants his sentence overturned.
Wednesday, the attorney for Jesus Jimenez, 25, argued before the Utah Supreme Court that his client did not know Miguel Mateos-Martinez, 24, had a gun with him when he went into the Bushwacker Salon, 1329 W. 1300 South, on Aug. 15, 2007.
During the robbery of the salon, Faviola Hernandez, 24, the owner of the store, was shot and killed. Mateos-Martinez, the gunman, was convicted and sentenced this year to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
In 2008, Jimenez was sentenced to 21 years to life in prison for first-degree felony murder and aggravated robbery with a dangerous weapon enhancement.
But during Wednesday's hearing, defense attorney Herschel Bullen argued that his client didn't actually use or threaten anyone with a gun and wasn't aware that Mateos-Martinez had a gun when he entered the salon or had intentions of using one.
Although Jimenez was aware after the fact that a gun was used, "The acts had already occurred," Bullen argued.
He said Jimenez would had to have had prior knowledge that a gun would be used in order for an accomplice enhancement to be given.
But assistant attorney general Jeanne Inouye argued that under the legal statute, it is irrelevant whether or not he knew a gun was going to be used during the robbery when he helped commit the crime. And regardless, she said in this case the government believes Jimenez did know that a gun would be used.
At one point, Justice Thomas Lee pointed out that according to the case reports, Jimenez, after driving by the salon several times, told his girlfriend who was in the car with him to "get down" right before the robbery happened.
"The only reason you get down is when bullets are about to fly," Lee said.
Members of Hernandez's family attended the hearing. Afterward, they felt confident the Supreme Court would uphold Jimenez's conviction and sentence.
Rosa Hernandez, Faviloa's mother, said it didn't matter whether Jimenez was the one who actually pulled the trigger or not.
"He was present. He drove several times around the place. He knows he was going to the robbery," she said. "I'm confident (the justices) are going to keep it the way it is."
"If he didn't know before (that a gun was involved), he knew after," said Laura Hernandez, Faviloa's sister who was 12 at the time of the murder. "Multiple times he could have backed out and changed his mind."
The Utah Supreme Court is expected to release a decision in several months.

YIMBY is an acronym for Yes In My Back Yard, a pro-development movement in contrast and opposition to the NIMBY phenomenon.[1] Typically the YIMBY movement supports development of new housing in cities where rental costs have escalated to unaffordable levels, though it may also support public-interest projects such as the installation of clean energy sources like wind turbines.[2][3]
In the United States, early leaders of the YIMBY movement include Sonja Trauss in San Francisco and Nikolai Fedak in New York.[4][5] The first ever Yes In My Backyard conference was held in Boulder, Colorado, in June 2016.[6][7]
In Toronto, YIMBY is a platform for city development to initiate hands-on projects "Celebrating a Culture of YES".[8]

Picking up Children Kristin Greenhalgh has to pick up her children, who all attend different schools. She is at home (H) and needs to go to Children First Preschool (C), Braden River Elementary School (B), and Stephens Middle School (S).

a) Represent this traveling salesman problem with a complete, weighted graph showing the distances on the appropriate edges.
b) Use the brute force method to determine the shortest route for Kristin to start from home, pick up her children, and return to home.
c) What is the minimum distance Kristin can travel?
