By definition, pervasive computing should support endless expressions of varying interfaces, contexts and automation. As pervasive computing becomes more prevalent, it is important that designers build systems in support of unique, in-use and user-defined characteristics. We explore this expressiveness and propose the use of existing technologies to enhance it. We investigate the impact of inte...

Pervasive computing researchers typically conduct their research through the development of prototype applications. Such research is motivated by a well-defined problem and evaluated by assessing the impact of deployed solutions. Accordingly, the evaluation phase assumes a critically important role in this process. Failure to sufficiently evaluate an application can have wide ranging negative e...

Pervasive computing technology has the potential to benefit applications in the military, financial, and health care domain. Although pervasive computing technology looks promising, one critical challenge needs to be addressed before it can be widely deployed – security. The problem is serious because pervasive computing applications involve interactions between a large number of entities that ...

In today‟s era of the ubiquitous computing, the Internet has become the main mode of data communication. Most of the devices used in wireless/mobile environments, that form wireless networks, ad-hoc networks and wireless sensor networks etc., have low computational power, memory and limited battery power. In such a Pervasive Computing environment, providing security to data becomes a complex ta...

As pervasive computing technologies leave the labs, they are starting to be used for the purpose of advertising. Pervasive Advertising has the potential to affect everyone’s life, but it seems that a knowledge gap is preventing us from shaping this development in a meaningful way. In particular, many marketing and advertising professionals have an expert understanding of their trade, but are un...

Every year, billions of computing devices are built and seamlessly integrated into our surroundings and daily lives. In the near future, we will live in pervasive computing environments. In these environments, devices range from traditional PCs, printers, or servers, to devices that people carry, wear, and to the devices that are embedded into commodities and ambient environments. Smart phones,...

The technology needed to realize the goal of fully pervasive and mobile computing is rapidly coming together. Its emergence represents an unprecedented opportunity to expand the power of the Internet beyond traditional computing devices, enabling a world of smart spaces and smart appliances providing often invisible support for a variety of context-aware services with tremendous environmental a...

Due to the large success of wireless networks and portable devices, the pervasive computing paradigm is becoming a reality. One of the most challenging objectives to be achieved in pervasive computing environments is to allow a user to perform a task by composing on the fly the environment’s service and resource components. However, existing approaches commonly assume that networked components ...

Trust plays an important role in making collaborative decisions about service evaluation and service selection in pervasive computing. Context is a fundamental concept in pervasive systems, which is based on the interpretation of environment and systems. The dynamic nature of context can strongly affect trust management and service selection. In this paper, we present a context-based trust mana...
