internet of things 物联网
The "Internet of things" (IoT) is becoming an increasingly growing topic of conversation both in the workplace and outside of it. It's a concept that not only has the potential to impact how we live but also how we work.
The new rule for the future is going to be, "Anything that can be connected, will be connected.“
an increasingly growing topic of conversation : 逐渐增长的讨论主题
workplace: 工作场所
potential: 潜能，可能性
impact: 影响
物联网不管在工作场所还是其他地方都正在成为一个逐渐增长的讨论主题。这个概念不仅仅对于我们如何生活有潜在的影响力，也会影响到我们如何工作。
未来的新规则将会是“每一个能连接的东西将会被连接。”
wearable devices 可穿戴设备

machine-to-machine communication 机器对机器交流
The Internet of Things revolves around increased machine-to-machine communication; it’s built on cloud computing and networks of data-gathering sensors; it’s mobile, virtual, and instantaneous connection.
Say for example you are on your way to a meeting; your car could have access to your calendar and already know the best route to take. What if your alarm clock wakes up you at 6 a.m. and then notifies your coffee maker to start brewing coffee for you?
revolve around: 以…为中心，围绕…转动
cloud computing: 云计算
data-gathering sensor: 数据收集传感器
mobile: 移动的
virtual: 虚拟的
instantaneous connection: 瞬时连接
have access to: 使用，可利用
calendar: 日程表
route: 线路
notify: 通知(v.)
物联网以增多的机器间交流为中心；建立在云计算和数据收集传感器网络的基础上；它是移动的，虚拟的和瞬时连接的。
例如你正在去开会的路上，你的车能够利用你的日程表已经确定好了路线。如果你的闹钟在早上9点叫醒你并且通知你的咖啡机开始为你冲咖啡将会怎样？
