Abstract
The International Symposium on Wearable Computers is now in its 16th year. With little research available into the historical content of wearable computing literature, this paper attempts to identify key trends within the 510 conference articles currently published. A longitudinal study is undertaken using word frequency analysis, which suggests a shift in emphasis from describing and prototyping wearable computers, to evaluative methods and activity sensing techniques.
