Ambient Intelligence, Wireless Networking, And Ubiquitous Computing (Mobile Communications)
暫譯: 環境智慧、無線網路與無所不在的計算（行動通訊）

Description

This cutting-edge reference explores the dynamic synergy between pervasive computing, and wireless communications that is breaking the ground for Ambient Intelligence (AmI). Ranging from practical application scenarios to technical infrastructure issues, this book shows you ways to plan for new AmI services, develop AmI middleware and networks, and further advance AmI research. AmI's new emotional interfaces are revolutionizing computer-human interaction, and you learn how to maximize communication efficiency for enabling this new generation of interfaces.

This innovative resource presents a new approach to ad-hoc networking that broadens AmI capabilities by reducing energy consumption at network nodes. Moreover, you discover novel approaches to technology integration that aid in developing architectures for AmI environments. The book covers the latest AmI trends, including smart dust, smart personal object technology, context-aware computing, interface transparency, and federated service platform solutions.
