The document discusses how ubiquitous computing (ubicomp) and related technologies like pervasive computing, ambient intelligence, and the Internet of Things could be applied in libraries. It outlines key trends like cheap processing, wireless networking, and sensors that will enable ubicomp. Visions for ubicomp include computers that are embedded, context-aware, personalized, adaptive and anticipatory. The document also discusses specific ubicomp applications like location-based services, fabrication technologies, biotelemetry, biofeedback, and potential library applications like location-based reference and anticipatory reference.
Pervasive computing (also called ubiquitous computing) is the growing trend towards embedding microprocessors in everyday objects so they can communicate information. The words pervasive and ubiquitous mean "existing everywhere." Pervasive computing devices are completely connected and constantly available.

Geospatial Rectification of Web Transactions and Data SecurityPhoenix TS
Presentation from Mr. Tim Loomis, a Senior Systems Engineer at National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
He will address the implications for managing imagery data that has geographical components per pixel and bring up a broader discussion on what the move toward geospatial rectification of web transactions means for security and data management at our Meetup in February 10th here - http://www.meetup.com/Tech-Roots/events/219644408/
Radio Frequencies are all around us. Our organizations use them, and our traditional security measures don't often account for them. What sort of tools and programs do you need to help you find them so that you can begin to have conversations about the information on them and how to secure it.

2. Terminology
• Ubiquitous Computing (Ubicomp)
• Pervasive Computing
• Ambient Intelligence
• The Internet of Things
3. What Trends and Technologies Will
Power Ubicomp?
– Cheap information processing
– Cheap memory and storage
– Wireless networking
– Interoperability and open standards
– Universal addressability (i.e. IPv6)
– Sensors
– Position awareness
– Power
4. Visions of Ubiquitous Computing
• Low cost, low power embedded in
everyday objects
• The Post-P.C. Environment
• Computers should be invisible and
unobtrusive
• Technology should create calm
33. Library Applications
• Location-based reference
• Anticipatory reference
• Information therapy
• Emotion mapping of the library
• Community manufacturing center
34. Sources
• Everyware by Adam Greenfield
• Shaping Things by Bruce Sterling
• Ambient Findability by Peter Morville
• When Things Can Think by Gershenfeld
• Fab Lab by Gershenfeld
All of the above mean roughly the same thing, though academics might argue that there are distinctions.
Single purpose devices vs. multiple purpose Everday surfaces and objects The idea is as simple as its application is difficult. If all cans, books, shoes or parts of cars are equipped with minuscule identifying devices, daily life on our planet will undergo a transformation. Things like running out of stock or wasted products will no longer exist as we will know exactly what is being consumed on the other side of the globe. Theft will be a thing of the past as we will know where a product is at all times. The same applies to parcels lost in the post The purpose of a computer is to help you do something else. The best computer is a quiet, invisible servant. The more you can do by intuition the smarter you are; the computer should extend your unconscious . Technology should create calm. Polite technology
