Contextual computing, also called context-aware computing, is the use of software and hardware to automatically collect and analyze data about a device's surroundings in order to present relevant, actionable information to the end user or take intelligent actions as pre-defined by the end user and the real-time social, location and other pre-set conditions

Basic economics of lowering operating costs for consumers, businesses and government agencies

Needs more efficient use of natural resources to avoid shortage or depletion (e.g water shortage in CA) in anticipation of global population (11 billion by 2050)

Needs to reduce environment issues that impact health, natural resources, and business operations.

Broad coverage of wireless connectivity and choices (satellite, 4G, WiFi, Bluetooth, Z-Wave, Zigbee, etc.)

Shrinking size and maturity of mobile, wireless and sensors technologies

Sensors fusion, Big Data, Machine Learning, 3-D printing, etc., help drive innovations going forward

One thing we don’t have to worry about is running out of Internet addresses. IPv6 protocol has the capacity for 340 trillion trillion (3.4 x 1038) addresses; that’s 100 addresses for every atom on the face of the earth!

Additional efficiency and performance can be gained via intelligent contextual computing amongst smart devices (Sensor Fusion & )

Machine learning will continual to improve the interactions between human and devices, and devices to devices

Must make these connected devices SAFE & SECURE
