3. INTRODUCTION
☻ Pervasive computing (also called ubiquitous computing ) is the growing trend
towards embedding microprocessors.
☻ The words pervasive and ubiquitous mean “ existing everywhere ".
☻ The aim of Pervasive Computing is for computing available wherever it's
needed. It spreads intelligence and connectivity to more or less everything.
☻ Ships, Aircrafts, Cars, Bridges, Tunnels, Machines, Refrigerators, Door handles,
Lighting fixtures, Shoes, Hats, Tools, Homes and even things like our coffee mugs
and even the human body embedded with chips
☻ Mobile Internet access, Third-generation wireless communication, Handheld
devices, and Bluetooth have made pervasive computing a reality.

4. PERVASIVE COMPUTING
 Pervasive computing means.,
1. Anytime/anywhere: 7 days x 24 hours, global, ubiquitous access.
2. Any device: PC, Palm/PDA, cell phone, and so forth.
3. Any network: Access, Notification, Data Synchronization, Queued
transactions, Wireless optimization, Security, content
adaptation/reformat, development tools, device and user management.
4. Any data: E-mail, Personal Information Manager (PIM); Inter-Intranet;
Public Services.

 Other terms for pervasive
computing:
 Ubiquitous computing
 Calm technology
 Things that think
 Everywhere
 Pervasive internet
 Ambient intelligence
 Proactive computing
 Augmented reality
 Characteristics of
pervasive computing:
 Physical integration: integration
between computing nodes and the
physical world, e.g., a whiteboard
that records what’s on.
 Instantaneous Interoperation:
devices interoperate spontaneously
in changing environments, e.g., a
device changes its partners as it
moves or as the context changes.

7. Architecture
 An important aspect of
the difference between
pervasive computing
and desktop
computing.

8. PRINCIPLES OF PERVASIVE
COMPUTING

10. Differences between Ubiquitous
and Pervasive Computing
Ubiquitous computing
 Ubiquitous means
everywhere
 Ubiquitous computing is
more user & application
driven
 involves use computers at
all.
Pervasive computing
 Pervasive means "diffused
throughout every part of“
 Pervasive computing is more
technology driven
 involves devices like
handhelds devices, notebook,
palmtop etc.

12. USES OF PERVASIVE COMPUTING

13. Applications of pervasive

15. ONGOING RESEARCH
PROJECTS
IBM ‘s “smarter planet “
The project is about building
a smarter planet by including
everyday case scenarios like
parking the car in a place by
communicating with another
car.

16. Benefits of pervasive
computing
 Manage information quickly, efficiently & effortlessly
 Removes complexity of new technologies
 Convenient access to relevant information stored on networks
 Easily allow user to take actions anywhere, anytime
 provide supplemented environment with interconnected digital
technologies

17. Limitations of pervasive
computing
 Pervasive computing is Not entirely secure
 Frequent line connections that are broken
 Slow connections
 Very expensive operating costs

18. FUTURE ASPECTS
 Cell phones will ask the
landline phone what its
telephone number is and
will forward our calls to it.
 Wrist watches will monitor
our sugar
 Cars will use the Internet to
find an open parking space
or the nearest vegetarian
restaurant inform the owner of
the needed service or
automatically install the
necessary (software) repair
 Digi-tickers or implanted heart
monitors in heart patients will
talk wirelssly to computers,
which will be trained to keep
an eye open for
abnormalities.

19. CONCLUSION
 Pervasive computing in an increasingly networked world
continues to affect more and more of the world's population.
Although this is a global phenomenon, regional and national
social and cultural factors will directly influence the
technologies and promise of pervasive computing.
 Pervasive Computing - the next era of computer science.
PervasiveComputing.net is intended to be a information and
news website. It will cover various new developments
happening in pervasive computing area - basically mobile
computing, sensors, networking, security/privacy, ubiquitous
access to information, and related fields.

the first step!the first step!
