Thanks to evolution in the wireless computing and networking
domains, technology is becoming ubiquitous, enabling users
to access the various networked resources, anytime, anywhere.
Still, effective integration of the ubiquitous technology
into the environment to seamlessly deliver to users the
right service at the right time raises numerous scientific
and technological challenges, from usability of the networked
environment to software platforms easing technology integration.
Promises but also challenges that have arisen with the
emergence of the ubiquitous technology are in particular
highlighted by the tremendous research work that has been
undertaken in the areas of pervasive computing and ambient
intelligence, both in academia and in industry.
The Ubiquitous Computing module will provide state of
the art survey of software platforms for the seamless
integration of the ubiquitous technology, addressing software
architectures that have been proposed and are being experimented
to enable the pervasive computing and/or ambient intelligence
vision. This includes latest solutions exploiting sensor
devices that are keys to making systems aware of the physical
context. Further, applications that are made possible
by the ubiquity of the technology will be extensively
presented. Applications in the business and home domains
will indeed serve as a basis to discuss promises shown
by the ubiquitous technology but also key challenges that
need to be overcome.
