Abstract

Communication has been improved, and services have been enriched with the help of revolutionary smart objects and computing environment that assist the users to make daily tasks much easier. The vision of pervasive system imposes on the creating of an environment that has communication and computing capabilities with seamless integration of human interventions. Looking at the users’ requirements and required services during several scenarios, the pervasive system is an essential and effective solution that needs to discuss. Personalization and context-based services are the need of an hour. This chapter starts with the vision of pervasive system and many emerging trends. The chapter continues to discuss how the pervasive systems not only benefit the users but also businesses. The next part of this chapter focuses on the basic technical building blocks. The issues and challenges of the pervasive system are presented in this chapter. The overall overview of this book is discussed in the last part of this chapter.
