Automatic Networks
Technology Review has an interesting feature discussing ambient computing, where numerous sensors are integrated into the environment: Automatic Networks. The aim of this is to simplify every day tasks of humans, and make them more efficient. Artificial Intelligence is required to make all these sensors communicate in a complex fashion, but that produces useful results! The article itself looks into some examples, and makes the link with wireless protocols such as Bluetooth. This is an interesting correlation which is rarely made, and makes the article a good read. |

Ubiquitous Anti-Terrorism
UniSci has an article on a similar topic, this time discussing the application of sensor arrays scattered around the border, in order to monitor traffic of goods and people. Developing Short And Long Term Antiterrorist Approach I find it interesting how pervasive computing can help in such situations too. It's more of a long term solution though! |
