3. www.mobilevce.com © 2007 Mobile VCE 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?

4. www.mobilevce.com © 2007 Mobile VCE 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

5. www.mobilevce.com © 2007 Mobile VCE Workshop Objectives Bring together internationally leading industrial and academic research in the field of Ubiquitous Services and highlight the key barriers and their potential solutions. Address many of the challenges in the areas of connectivity for diverse devise structures, as well as the problems around device, user and user interface aware service and content delivery.
