A resource for the future of communication, this handbook on pervasive
communication is designed for the quickly arriving time when we will be
continuously connected to one another, and the exchange of information will
dramatically impact all aspects of our daily life, including healthcare,
education, commerce, and socialization. Serving as a comprehensive reference
with contributions from dozens of pioneering experts, in addition to an
extensive introduction, this resource will offer multi-authored sections on
enabling technologies, applications and services, location and mobility
management, and privacy and trust. Bibliographic information will provide the
opportunity for further research.
