Preface
Imagine that your refrigerator can tell you if the food it contains is going bad, or that the clothes you wear can tell your thermostat when to change the temperature in a room. This may seem like the technology ofsciencefictionnovels,however,researchersinubiquitouscomputingproposethissortoftechnologyand more. Ubiquitous computing is a forward-looking research area which focuses on the integration of technology into everyday life with the end goal of making the technology second nature and nearly, if not completely, invisible to the user. This technology represents a movement away from the current second generation desktop model, in which the users interaction with the technology is intentional and deliberate, to a third generation computing model in which the user may engage several technologies at once, possibility without being aware of the interaction.
As the world moves closer and closer to the integration of technology into every aspect of life there is a greater need for innovative research and development into the various aspects of ubiquitous computing. Issues surrounding ubiquitous and pervasive computing vary from the practical questions of hardware size and user interfacing to the more ethical questions of privacy and data protection. Ev-ery aspect of how users interact with technology and what role technology should play in the world is constantly being reviewed, revised, and updated in light of the ubiquitous computing movement. With suchcontinualchangeitisimportantforresearchersandpractitionersinthisfieldtostayabreastofthelatest in technological and theoretical advances.
With the constant changes in the landscape of ubiquitous and pervasive computing it is a challenge for researchers and experts to take in the volume of innovative advances and up-to-the-moment research inthismultifariousfield.InformationScienceReferenceispleasedtoofferathree-volumereferencecollection on this rapidly growing discipline, in order to empower students, researchers, academicians, andpractitionerswithawide-rangingunderstandingofthemostcriticalareaswithinthisfieldofstudy.This collection provides the most comprehensive, in-depth, and recent coverage of all issues related to the development of cutting-edge ubiquitous technologies, as well as a single reference source on all conceptual, methodological, technical and managerial issues, and the opportunities, future challenges and emerging trends related to the development of the ubiquitous and pervasive computing model.
This collection entitled, Ubiquitous and Pervasive Computing: Concepts, Methodologies, Tools, and Applications is organized in eight (8) distinct sections, providing the most wide-ranging coverage of topics such as: 1) Fundamental Concepts and Theories; 2) Development and Design Methodologies; 3) Tools and Technologies; 4) Utilization and Application; 5) Organizational and Social Implications; 6) Managerial Impact; 7) Critical Issues; and 8) Emerging Trends. The following provides a summary of what is covered in each section of this multi-volume reference collection:
Section 1, Fundamental Concepts and Theories, serves as a foundation for this extensive reference tool by addressing crucial theories essential to the understanding of ubiquitous and pervasive computing.
