摘要: This paper analyzes Weiser's original definition of ubiquitous or pervasive computing (PerComp) and compares its presence in developed nations to the needs emerging markets. The majority PerComp research is targeted towards industrial nations, while users from resource constrained, low income digitally unstable regions are often neglected. It essential for scientific community understand challenges opportunities faced by technologies markets, since these economies account two-thirds worlds' total population. agenda be extended so that it includes can play a pivotal role alleviating poverty previously neglected no easy goal due serious posed socio-economic levels various overall contribution this point out main features used evaluate "traditional" solutions may not hold developing market. authors surveyed some prior work on adoption systems regions, unique they offer.
