Description & Coverage
Description:

Pervasive computing enables users to interact with information resources in their everyday lives. The development of computational technologies that can exist in ever smaller devices while simultaneously increasing processing power allows such devices to blend seamlessly into tangible environments.

Intelligent Technologies and Techniques for Pervasive Computing provides an extensive discussion of such technologies, theories and practices in an attempt to shed light on current trends and issues in the adaption of pervasive systems. Within its pages, students and practitioners of computer science will find both recent developments and practical applications—an overview of the field and how intelligent techniques can help to improve user experience in the distribution and consumption of pertinent, timely information. This book is part of the Advances in Computational Intelligence and Robotics series collection.

Coverage:

The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:

  • Fuzzy Set Theory
  • Learning Methodologies
  • Location-Based Services
  • Machine Learning
  • Multi-Agent Systems Applications
  • Semantic Web
  • Soft Computing
