International Journal of Ad Hoc and Ubiquitous Computing (IJAHUC)
Special Issue on
"Pervasive Computing through Networked Sensing Devices"
Pervasive computing is the next generation computing environments
with information and communication technology everywhere, for everyone,
at all times. The technologies of wireless, ad hoc, and sensor networks
play important roles in pervasive computing. Sensing devices connected
through wireless communication can capture, process, and disseminate useful
information surrounding us. The issues and challenges for the development
of such technologies not only encompass a broad spectrum of research topics
but also involve envisioning new multi-disciplinary applications that will
change the way in which we live and work. This special issue invites papers
in all research and applied areas related to wireless, ad hoc, and sensor
networks.
