+This thesis presents a way to connect small \gls{IoT} devices with high level
+\gls{TOP} implementations languages. It shows how a new frontend for the class
+based shallowly embedded \glspl{EDSL} called \gls{mTask} written in \gls{Clean}
+can be used to compile \gls{IoT}-tasks on the fly and send them to the device
+as bytecode which is interpreted. All of this adheres to the \gls{TOP}
+philosophy where familiar concepts such as \glspl{SDS} and task-combinators are
+available at ease.
