Original Kurzfassung:
Pervasive Computing research has shaped a wide spanning research area at the boundaries of computer science and behavioral science, with an impressive outreach to how humankind is experiencing information and communication technologies in every breath of an individuals life. The explosive growth and now globe-spanning availability of data networks, and at the same time the radical miniaturization of ICT electronics and their embedding into literally everything, have lead to reversing the principles of how humans interact with computers. While in the age of "personal computers" the interaction with computers was mostly user initiated, Pervasive Computing attempts for computer system (or in general ICT) designs that relief users from continuos, focussed and attentive interactions via text-input and visual-output devices. Instead, such systems implement implicit interaction principles, where information about a certain situation and observed user behaviour is taken as input, and unobtrusive provision of services or assistance is the output. In other words, the system itself employs mechanism to become "aware" about the situation, the context of it's operation, the user, etc., and responds with services accordingly. (...)
