• Mobile computing is human–computer interaction by which a computer is expected to be transported during normal usage. Mobile computing involves mobile communication, mobile hardware, and mobile software.

• Mobile means - able to move or be moved freely or easily. • Computing means-the use or operation of computers. • “Computing on the move”

INTRODUCTION:

IMPORTANCE OF MOBILE COMPUTING:

Desire to have continuous network connectivity irrespective of the location.

Mobile Internet Protocol is an extension to the Internet Protocol proposed by

IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force).

FUTURE CONCEPT OF MOBILE COMPUTING:

• With the facts that holographic and sound vibrations are the future, he has re-invented the computer through his design. From the images and information available, we can figure out that this futuristic gadget is as small as a bracelet, which you can wear or put in pocket. The proposed material is flexible and resistance, so that safety issues could be dealt with efficiently. Further material needs to be shape retaining and non-conductive and non-allergic and most important, heat resistant. All these aspects have been considered by designer and he suggests promising bioplastic material to ensure all these aspects. The concept is very alluring, no doubt, but without technical specifications and functional information it’s just like a hypothesis that is waiting for proof in get materialized.

PAPER PHONE:

An advanced “thin-film” flexible paper computer has been developed through collaborative efforts of researchers at Queen’s University in Ontario, Canada, and Arizona State University. Called Paper Phone, it’s described as a “flexible I Phone”. •“You interact with it by bending it into a cell phone, flipping the corner to turn pages, or writing on it with a pen.” •“This allows natural bend gestures and interaction on the Paper phone display to navigate through maps, contact lists, or music play lists, in ways that resemble how such content appears on paper documents,” he explains. “You fold or bend the page to move forward in a book. Now, with this device, you can do that on your phone, too.”Vertegaal says the invention will spark a major advance in interactive computing, opening the path to a new generation of computers that are more lightweight and flexible.

Natural Evolution of computing

ADVANTAGES:

• Increase in Productivity

• Entertainment • Portability • Cloud Computing • Reducing paperwork • Eliminating redundant data entry • Improving data accuracy

DISADVANTAGES:

• Power Consumption • Security concerns • Quality of connectivity

APPLICATIONS:

• Consumer Goods • Delivery & Route Sales• Government• Healthcare• Transportation• Emergency services • Credit card verification• Entertainment

CONCLUSION:• Today's computing has rapidly grown from being confined to

a single location. With mobile computing, people can work from the comfort of any location they wish to as long as the connection and the security concerns are properly factored. In the same light, the presence of high speed connections has also promoted the use of mobile computing.

• Being an ever growing and emerging technology, mobile computing will continue to be a core service in computing and Information Communication and Technology.

• Popular • User Demand • Size is shrinking
