Pervasive Computing

Assignment Overview

What is Pervasive Computing? 

Pervasive computing is computing power freed from the desktop—embedded in wireless handheld devices, automobile telematics systems, home appliances, and commercial tools of the trade. Pervasive computing software helps manage information and reduce complexity for a mobile workforce and a mobile society. In the corporate world, it extends timely business data to workers in the field and drives down costs. In our personal lives, it expands our freedom to exchange information anytime, anywhere. These new technologies will require more mobile hardware devices to support them.
