9 Ubiquitous Computing engl. ubiquitous existing or being everywhere at the same time Ubiquitous Computing enhances computer use by making computers available throughout the physical environment, while making them effectively invisible for the human user. (Mark Weiser, 1988) M. Weiser: The Computer for the 21st Century Scientific American, September 1991, Volume 265, Number 3 (Special Issue: Communications, Computers, and Networks) 9

10 Ubiquitousness Example: Electromotors 10

11 Pervasive Computing engl. pervasive - existing in or spreading through every part of something a billion people interacting with a million e- businesses with a trillion intelligent devices interconnected Lou Gerstner, CEO IBM (1995) Often synonymously used for Ubiquitous Computing and Internet of Things (MIT MediaLabs) Everyware (Adam Greenfield / Nokia) Disappearing Computing (EU) Invisible Computer (Donald Norman / MIT) Uwe Hansmann, Lothar Merk, Martin S. Nicklous und Thomas Stober Pervasive Computing. The Mobile World. 2nd Ed. Springer 2003, Berlin Heidelberg New York 11

12 Pervasiveness Example: Electronic Billboards 12

13 Embedded Computing Computer with dedicated function Limiting constraints Low cost, reduced space, low energy consumption, low memory Usually no hard disk, keyboard or mice, etc. Dedicated architectures Special CPUs (microcontroller, DSP) Special operating systems (e.g., only firmware) Example use cases: Vehicle control (airbag, ESP, etc.) Household devices (Internet-TV) Healthcare Equipment And many more... Panasonic Lumix Camera 13

14 Computers really everywhere? Social Implications? Children work in Coltan mines (Congo) for new mobile phones (Stern 06/2010) Children work in trash piles of exported old computers from Europe (Zeit Wissen 06/2010) Sources:

18 Context Context is any information that can be used to characterize the situation of an entity. An entity is a person, place, or object that is considered relevant to the interaction between a user and an application, including the user and applications themselves. Abowd et al. (1999) Entity Interpretation Description Sensor Camera, Microphone, Accelerometer, GPS, Thermometer, Biosensors Data Luminance, Pressure, Humidity, Position, Time, Date, Proximity G. D. Abowd, A.K. Dey, P. J. Brown, N. Davies, M. Smith, & P. Steggles Towards a Better Understanding of Context and Context-Awareness. In Proceedings of the 1st international Symposium on Handheld and Ubiquitous Computing (Karlsruhe, Germany, September 27-29, 1999). Context Place, Identity Activity, Tasks Intentions, Emotions Representation Key-Value Markup Scheme Graphical Ontology Object Oriented Logical 18

19 Context-Awareness Pileus (Ubicomp 2006) Umbrella Photo Browser (Flickr Image Database, Computer in the Grip, browsing with accelerometer sensor) Ambient Umbrella (Ambient Devices) Radio Access to weather forecast. Light in the grip indicates rain. 19

20 Context-Awareness Automobiles A car can sense many more relevant data in order to optimize the usage: road conditions, other traffic, state of vehicle parts, even driver intentions... Services aid driver decisions: warning lamps, navigation system, etc. Services replace driver decisions: ESP, ABS, and many more Mercedes Attention Assist: warns to driver, if he gets too tired for driving 20
