Setting the Scene

What is a Ubiquitous Service? Martini Effect

- Anytime, Anyplace, Anywhere- Isn’t that more about ubiquitous connectivity?

Weiser - Computer for the 21st Century- Disappearing processing power- Not necessarily a service?

Wikipedia has a definition of sorts- Availability- Transparency- Seamlessness- Awareness- Trustworthiness

So what is a Ubiquitous Service?

What is a Ubiquitous Service?

What is a Ubiquitous Service? Adaptable

- Adapts to current environment - Service (how) & Content (what) Adaptation- Unconcerned with physical connectivity

Context Aware- Reacts and is aware of ‘user intent’- Autonomous discovery

User Centric
