The article could use some copyeditting (I've tagged it) but that is not a reason for deletion. -- 147:. Ubiquitous computing emerged as a new topic in computer science. Challenges are in developing new kind of applications. The article gives a simple and global view of the area and given links are very useful. 374:- the article may be poorly written and referenced, but the field itself is a legitmate area of research, with (as other editors have already pointed out) journals and conferences dedicated to it. -- 347: 114: 317:.
