edgenoden
Edgenoden is a fictional class of nano-structured, modular nodes designed for edge computing and distributed sensing. In the imagined landscape where it appears, edgenoden devices are deployed at the periphery of networks to perform real-time data processing, reduce latency, and lessen reliance on central data centers.
They are described as self-contained units with integrated sensing, processing, and communication capabilities. Edgenoden modules are
Manufacture relies on nano-assembly and polymer-based substrates, enabling lightweight and flexible form factors. They connect via
Potential uses in the fiction include smart cities, autonomous transport fleets, industrial automation, and space habitats,
The concept originated in speculative research literature in the mid-21st century and has been used in various
