Pervasive computing 


Pervasive Computing, sometimes called 'ubiquitous computing' is a term used to describe environments where a wide range of computing devices (such as wearable and handheld computers, laptops, smart-card interfaces, location sensing mechanisms, etc) and computer-enabled systems are integrated into all facets of day-to-day life and activities.

Standardisation in this area covers requirements for mobile computing and nomadic learning and involves technical standards such as wireless and telecommunication protocols.
