DESCRIPTION:The idea is simple: correlate the physical world with the virt
 ual\nworld in such a way that humans can conveniently access services\nand
  applications that are tuned to their circumstances and\nneeds\, "in the m
 oment". But does this work in practice? What are\nthe system implications?
  And what is it good for\, anyway? I will\ndraw on work in ubiquitous comp
 uting\, including recent studies of\nphysically-embedded security protocol
 s.\n\n \n\nBio:\n\nTim Kindberg is a senior research scientist at HP Labs 
 Bristol\nand a visiting professor at the University of Bath. His research\
 ninterests are in urban\, pervasive\, mobile and distributed\ncomputing\, 
 including both systems and human factors. He holds a\nPhD in computer scie
 nce from the University of Westminster and a\nBA in mathematics from the U
 niversity of Cambridge.\n
