24. Ubiquitous Internet Computing

24.11 Conclusion

Ubiquitous Computing is the wave of the future. We have microprocessors in most of our appliances and office equipment. One day, these devices will be even 'smarter' and also able to communicate with each other. The user interfaces will develop to the point to that the devices are calming, because they enhance our lives, make information easier to access, digest and understand, and improve our quality of life.

'Our computers should be like an invisible foundation that is quickly forgotten but always with us, and effortlessly used throughout our lives.' Mark Weiser (Weiser:1993)
