It is possible to notice that this kind of computing has a strong connection with physical world features, as well as those presented by its users profiles. In this way, if ubiquitous systems are capable of using as input relevant information about entities (e.g., people, places or objects) related to the application, they can provide services that are more appropriate, dynamic and optimized, increasing the user satisfaction and minimizing resource consumption, such as energy, processing, communication, among others. Such information is called context and represents the basic input element for context-aware computing. The goal of this short course is to discuss research trends on the ubiquitous context-aware field, presenting and analyzing the research performed on specific challenges. Such proposal presents interesting solutions to problems ranging from physical aspects of wireless communication to the design of applications available to the users.

Resumo A computação ubíqua é um novo paradigma no qual dispositivos com capacidade de processamento e comunicação são embutidos nos elementos do dia-a-dia, provendo serviços de forma transparente aos usuários. Pode-se observar que esse tipo de computação possui forte ligação com as características do mundo físico, bem como aquelas apresentadas pelos perfis de seus usuários. Assim, caso um sistema ubíquo seja capaz de utilizar como entrada informações relevantes sobre as entidades (e.g., pessoas, lugares, objetos) 102 27º Simpósio Brasileiro de Redes de Computadores e Sistemas Distribuídos
