2. ABSTRACT
Mobile Computing has fast become an important new paradigm in today's world of networked
computing systems. Ranging from wireless laptops to cellular phones and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth-
enabled PDAs to wireless sensor networks, mobile computing has become ubiquitous in its
impact on our daily lives. The debut if i-Phones and the proliferation of other handheld devices
have spurred excitement and interest in this evolving field. In this seminar, we will study the
state-of-the-art in both the research and commercial communities with respect to mobile
computing. We will investigate standard protocols and platforms, the capabilities of today's
commercial devices, and proposed next-generation solutions. In the process, we will seek to
gain an improved understanding about where the field is headed, and what is the importance in
themobile computing.
