Abstract
As we look to the future of computing, and particularly to the future of HCI research, the vision of ubiquitous computing emerges as a principal theme. The focus of this workshop is applications-centered research in ubiquitous computing. We define ubiquitous computing as the attempt to break the pattern of traditional relationships between users and computational services by extending the computational interface into the user's environment. Over the past few years researchers in wireless networking and distributed systems have worked to build infrastructures supporting mobile and ubiquitous computing. Infrastructure research is, of course, necessary for the advancement of ubiquitous computing, but we must also examine higher-level issues such as the kinds of tasks and interaction patterns that emerge as the user is allowed to break away from the desktop.
