Ubiquitous computing refers to a twenty‐first‐century era of computing in which networking and computing technologies become so small, fast, interconnected, and cheap that they can be seamlessly embedded into the environment and everyday objects. It implies that computing will become ubiquitous. User‐friendly services are expected to be available anytime and anywhere and only when demanded by users. This implies that computing will become intelligent because it will need to understand human behavior in context. The term “ubiquitous computing” was coined by Mark Weiser (1952–1999), chief scientist at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) in California, in a seminal paper published in 1991 (→ Human–Computer Interaction; Information Society; Technology and Communication).
Title: Ubiquitous Computing
Description:
Ubiquitous computing refers to a twenty‐first‐century era of computing in which networking and computing technologies become so small, fast, interconnected, and cheap that they can be seamlessly embedded into the environment and everyday objects.
It implies that computing will become ubiquitous.
User‐friendly services are expected to be available anytime and anywhere and only when demanded by users.
This implies that computing will become intelligent because it will need to understand human behavior in context.
The term “ubiquitous computing” was coined by Mark Weiser (1952–1999), chief scientist at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) in California, in a seminal paper published in 1991 (→ Human–Computer Interaction; Information Society; Technology and Communication).
