Project Aura: Toward Distraction-Free Pervasive Computing
A s the effects of Moore's law cause computing systems to become cheaper and more plentiful, a new problem arises: increasingly, the bottleneck in computing is not its disk capacity, processor speed, or communication bandwidth, but rather the limited resource of human attention. Human attention refers to a user's ability to attend to his or her primary tasks, ignoring system-generated distracti...
متن کاملToward Pervasive Computing in Restaurant
In this paper, an example of pervasive computing in restaurant, a wireless web-based ordering system is presented. By using mobile devices such as Personal Digital Assistants (PDA) and WebPad, customers can get many benefits when making orders in restaurants. With this system, customers get faster and better services, restaurant staff cooperate more efficiently with less working mistakes, and e...
متن کاملToward Waste-Free Cloud Computing
Many previous efforts focus on improving the utlization of data centers. We argue that even highly utilized systems can still waste the resource because of failures and maintenance. Therefore, in this position paper, we call on a new direction of research on waste-free computing. We start with a workable definition of efficiency, then introduce a new efficiency metric called usage efficiency, s...
متن کاملJini Home Networking: A Step toward Pervasive Computing
I nternetworking services have come a long way since their inception in basic communication between two homogeneous computers located not far from each other. Today, intelligent devices can interact with each other anytime and anywhere in the world. Recent advances in technology—especially in wireless communication—have fueled the market for such devices. At the same time, decreasing processor ...
