UbiComp 2006：普适计算/ UbiComp 2006: ubiquitous computing

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Ubiquitous Computing, UbiComp 2006, held in Orange County, CA, USA in September 2006.
　　The 30 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 232 submissions. The papers address all current issues in the area of ubiquitous, pervasive and handheld computing systems and their applications including topics like: improving natural interaction (applied sensing, fusion and reasoning, AI and speech technologies for Ubicomp, increasing machine understanding of human action and vice versa), constructing ubicomp systems (systems and toolkit support for constructing, maintaining and deploying and prototyping ubicomp environments), embedding computation (novel user interfaces, computational and sensing, actuator platforms, assistive technologies, applied to ubicomp), understanding ubicomp and its consequences (conceptual models, lessons learnt, user studies and results from ubicomp experiments), deploying ubicomp technologies (privacy, security, and trust, real-world and deployment experiences, studies of ubicomp settings).

The LNCS series reports state-of-the-art results in computer science research, development, and education, at a high level and in both printed and electronic form. Enjoying tight cooperation with the R&D community, with numerous individuals, as well as with prestigious organizations and societies, LNCS has grown into the most comprehensive computer science resarch forum available.
The scope of LNCS, including its subseries LNAI, spans the whole range of computer science and information technology including interdisciplinary topics in a variety of application fields. The type of material publised traditionally includes.
-proceedings(published in time for the respective conference)
-post-proceedings(consisting of thoroughly revised final full papers)
-research monographs(which may be basde on outstanding PhD work, research projects, technical reports, etc.)
