One article is called "ContextPhone: A Prototyping Platform for
Context-Aware Mobile Applications," Mike Raento, Antti Oulasvirta, Renaud
Petit, and Hannu Toivonen describe an open-source platform for the Symbian OS
and the Nokia
Series 60 smart phone platform, letting developers more easilyexplore the rich opportunities in this space.
Another article is about the superb idea of the WWW as an ubiquitous network.
The WWW "creates an obvious synergy with pervasive mobile phones, and in "A Wireless Web for Creating and Sharing Personal Content through Handsets," Manuel Roman, Nayeem Islam, and Shahid Shoaib frame the importance of this opportunity as one to enable more personalized information sharing. They present a dynamically partitioned middleware infrastructure to support the mobile capture and distribution of information for the wireless Web.
And the conclusion in a way is: "While Moore's Law will lead to impressive computational and storage properties for these devices [mobiles], it's their small form factor and constant connectivity that present the most intriguing, and sometimes worrying, possibilities.(picture is from here and shows an UMTS network layout example)
