Abstract :
Is pervasive computing fundamentally incompatible with aging? Our industry designs devices to last for only a couple of years, yet those who struggle with short-term-memory loss find it difficult to adapt to constant changes. At some point, our industry must recognize this specialized need and create a platform with some amount of constancy that can be upgraded to new hardware as necessary. The Web extra offers a list of the reviewers who made IEEE Pervasive Computing´s volume 12 possible.
