Sensing and Systems in Pervasive Computing by Dan Chalmers

Focus on issues and principles in context awareness, sensor processing and software design (rather than sensor networks or HCI or particular commercial systems). Designed as a textbook, with readings and lab problems in most chapters. Focus on concepts, algorithms and ideas rather than particular technologies.

From the reviews:

“Chalmers (Univof Sussex, UK) has written an interesting brief work related to smart phones, sensors, and other devices that are blending into the background and becoming invisible. … can serve as a useful guide for graduate student researchers. … The book could be used for an introduction to sensors course, a course in pervasive computing and research techniques, or an introduction to the area for research students. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and graduate students, as well as researchers in pervasive computing sensors.” (C. Tappert, Choice, Vol. 49 (6), February, 2012)
