Some good points made including… Ubicomp is far more than “smartâ€? objects, which might be best regarded as a symptom of a deeper paradigm just now unfolding. For me, it’s fundamentally about the surfacing of information that has always been latent in our lives; pattern recognition and machine inference based on large amounts of such information; and about the domain and scale of technical mediation contemplated - both wider and narrower, higher and lower than has been the case previously…When I talk about “surfacing information that has always been latent in our lives,â€? I mean putting precise numerical values on one’s present location, on what task we might happen to be currently engaged in, and in whose company; even on things like daily caloric intake or voice stress or urine chemistry. I mean making those values broadly accessible. I mean permitting operations to be performed on such values or aggregations of same, such that algorithmic guidance and control can be installed.

The user has the right to a system that performs exactly as promised. 4. The user has the right to easy-to-use instructions for understanding and utilizing a system to achieve desired goals. 5. The user has the right to be in control of the system and to be able to get the system to respond to a request for attention. 6. The user has the right to a system that provides clear, understandable, and accurate information regarding the task it is performing and the progress toward completion. 7.
