Abstract
Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) has transformed the way businesses and consumers collect and use data. By using disparate sets of data, companies and individuals alike can identify meaningful patterns of behavior. This new trend called “Internet of Behavior” (IoB) enables not only the evaluation of people’s behavior, but also ways to modify or influence behavior. This column will provide a brief overview of IoB, how it is utilized, and how it may be useful for libraries.
物联网(IoT)已经改变了企业和消费者收集和使用数据的方式。通过使用不同的数据集,公司和个人都可以识别有意义的行为模式。这种被称为“行为互联网”(Internet of Behavior, IoB)的新趋势不仅可以评估人们的行为,还可以提供改变或影响行为的方法。本专栏将简要介绍IoB,如何使用它,以及它如何对库有用。
