  • Abstract
    The IEEE Pervasive Computing community wishes to remember and celebrate the achievements of Gaetano Borriello, one of the founding members of our editorial board, who died on 1 February 2015. Borriello was a giant in the field of ubiquitous computing, and his most recent work on the Open Data Kit (ODK) supported humanitarian aid, conservation, and outreach to the developing regions of the world. His legacy will live on through the efforts he began and through the impact and influence he has had in this community and around the world.
