WhatisUbiquitousComputing?
2CS7IS5- OtherApplications– UbiquitousComputing:Discussion3
AsimpledefinitionforUbicomp
The vision of pervasive computing is that computers will be integratedseamlessly into our daily lives. We already make much use of computers,however we can gain the most value from them when they are no longer thingswe interact with explicitly, but rather are blended into the background andassist us when needed.
