Abstract

Wearable computing has tremendous potential to transform the way we work. The creative and successful miniaturization of computers has made ubiquitous computing a realistic possibility [1, 2]. Deregulation of telecommunications, together with the compelling idea of convergence of computer science, telecommunications and media, open up for wider deployment of such solutions.
