Definitions of Pervasive Computing from 'Everyware':
- Computing without computers
- 'A form of invisible computing'
- The extinction of the standard desktop model, and it being replaced by a vast network of devices and objects
- 'Something that 'does not live on a personal device of any sort, but is in the woodwork everywhere'
- The processing of information would be everywhere in the human environment
- It is a distributed system, all part of an invisible network
- Part of everything, permeates through all human interaction
- Integrated into things that were never thought of as 'technology'
- Majority of embedded systems will link up with a broader network, sharing and processing all their information with each other
- Allows for collaborative, distributed work
Examples of Pervasive Computing from 'Everyware':
- Processor intense HCI that allows for more natural ways of interaction with devices such as 'gesture and voice recognition'
- Wearable computing
- A bathtub that alerts the user when the desired water temperature has been reached
- Keys and wallets that locate themselves if misplaced
