| Kurzbeschreibung
Bringing together an array of wireless technologies, Ubiquitous Computing provides a rounded introduction to this complex field. The text compiles current visions of mobile wireless networks and services, human-oriented but invisible artifacts, sensors and self-organizing P2P network models that need to be autonomic with intelligent artifact, networks, services and environment design. Here, graduate students, ICT professionals, and software and network developers will discover how current technology models based upon mobile wireless services relate to and can evolve to support the ubiquitous computing vision.
