Ubiquitos Computing

Term Ubiquitous Computing is not really a new term, due in 1988, Mark Weiser, a senior researcher at Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) has proclaimed that term, so he was referred to as the father of Ubiquitous

Ubiquitous Computing What is it exactly? simply can we define the term ubiquitous computing / computing that is everywhere, ubiquitous means literally arise or exist everywhere, computing meaningful computer. Maybe you still do not understand the purpose of the above. Let's talk again, the history of computer development in the past starting from the main frame computer, which is a huge computer server which serves many users (the user), so once known by a single computer with many users.

Then moves toward the personal computer era, computer, that each person has one computer, and then came the Internet era, where one can access another computer without being limited by time distance and space. So future generations is in sight is ubiquitous computing, in this era of human can do a lot of interaction with a computer (many computers for one person). human analogue as a client computer connected to a computer server, so that any human needs will be met by an integrated computer services and automated. Many studies of Ubiquitous Computing was impressed as virtual, but gradually started to appear in the real world.

Gradually, this technology has been around us. For example, the role available within a mobile computer, television, washing machines, cars, escalators / elevators, ATM machines, etc., although still in small scale. Ubiquitous computing to facilitate the implementation of human to interact and communicate, anywhere, anytime, might also how only and will keep popping up a lot of applications and services that take advantage of this method.

Another example, equipment that was at home, our refrigerator that is connected with large-scale computing network, if the fridge is empty, then the refrigerator automatically send signals to one of the existing supermarkets in the network through its sensors, and automatically fill in the supermarket your refrigerator without bother to fill your own.

Likewise ourselves if all this time we have a variety of identification numbers, perhaps in the future we will have a single identity number, and by the identification number you will be connected with a large network for ubiquitous computing to interact and communicate with existing computing devices in the vicinity you. So that all your needs will be met and service computing is everywhere. You will always be connected with the world of computing.

Once the rapid developments in computer technology will be the future, it is wise in the face of these technological advances, take positive values, and cast a negative value that may arise by these technological advances. Welcome to ubiquitous computing!.
