Pervasive computing regards the introduction of interconnected
computers into everyday situations, from embedded control systems to
public healthcare.
We survey technical aspects of contemporary research in pervasive
computing. Subjects include mobile code and mobile agents in theory
and in practice, embedded software and dedicated pervasive computing
hardware, location tracking and context awareness, an overview of peer
to peer communication technologies, state-of-the-art pervasive
computing frameworks and systems, and human-computer interaction in
pervasive computing.
In addition, we give an overview of the research currently being
conducted at the Center for Pervasive Computing at
Aabogade, such as pervasive healthcare and the B&O-Laboratory.
