dc.description.abstract | In this thesis, I designed and constructed an intelligent microwave capable of automatically determining the time required to properly cook commercially-packaged foods. This research involved creating a database infrastructure capable of supporting a huge amount of data distributed throughout the internet. It was accomplished through a number of techniques involving careful application of the existing internet technologies: the Domain Naming System and the World Wide Web. A prototype using Radio Frequency ID tags was built and tested with several test foods. | en_US |
