The slight flavor difference is quite enjoyable, and I found it easy and enjoyable to read through the chapters. The subject matter is relevant and interesting, although the book is a bit old - having been written in It could definitely use an update. I purchased this as required by a graduate-level Engineering course. However, there is no math or hard engineering stuff in the book. If you are considering this as a course textbook, you can get by with a highlighter and note cards for your studies.

The information is thorough, very well sourced and organized.

The book's main purpose is to define, categorize, and place into neat order every aspect of Ubiquitous Computing UbiCom. Technology is discussed at an introductory level, glossed over in favor of theoretical analysis with a hint of human psychological review. It's a great reference and resource regarding the UbiCom as a whole, however do not expect technical details at an engineering level.

The focus of this book is UbiCom theory and understanding, not engineering. It's more suited for those who are involved in UbiCom at a managerial or academic level rather than the actual designers and inventors of the technology. I would recommend this book to anyone one with at a high-school or greater level of technical expertise who is interested in learning the background history, definitions, and general structure of UbiCom.

I got this book for class so it served its purpose. It had some interesting things in it to learn. Much has been said and written on the ideas and technologies of Ubiquitous Computing since Mark Weiser's pioneering work at Xerox PARC in the late 's to mid 's.

There have been conferences in many related areas, proceedings books and journal articles, and Adam Greenfield's popular yet wide-ranging book "Everyware", reviewing some of the relevant technologies, social implications, and policy concerns. Yet, until now there has been no comprehensive textbook suitable for a course in the Computer Science curriculum covering all of the component technologies of Ubiquitous and Pervasive Computing.

Professor Poslad's comprehensive textbook provides a tutorial and reference on all of the component technologies and study areas relevant to this increasingly important field, covering such topics as sensors and actuators, distributed systems, embedded operating systems, various form factors including "smart dust" and wearable systems, and the HCI and security issues which are concerns for research and development in this area. Bushnell coined variations of term ware such as deskware, couchware, kitchenware, autoware, bedroomware and bathware to reflect the use of ubiquitous computing for routine tasks.

Greenfeld used the term everyware to encompass the many different types of ware Ubiquitous computing: Here we categorise applications with respect to: User generated, locally created content that is modifiable From 1 to many content services per network Ubiquitous computing: Use of mobile phones and PDAs as universal local controllers? Focus on control of virtual rather than physical services Ubiquitous computing: Benefits Greater convenience, more relevant filtered information but trade off against a loss in privacy.
