Just like human beings’ shadows in the physical world, it follows people wherever they go, providing them with pervasive services. The model, methods, and software infrastructure for SmartShadow are presented and an application for smart cars is also introduced.   The book can serve as a valuable reference work for researchers and graduate students in the field of pervasive/ubiquitous computing.
