The impact of IT on society has already been profound, reshaping work, education, government, leisure, entertainment, and home life. The emergence of powerful digital infrastructures, wireless networks and mobile devices has started to embed computers into the architectures, furniture and personal fabric of everyday life. While once we would interact with one computer mobile phones, digital cameras, satellite navigation, handheld computers and a host of similar devices are today commonplace in our everyday activities. This shift to 'Ubiquitous Computing' is a challenge that affects all aspects of computer science and has massive implications for how we might reason about, build and experience computer systems in the future. This is a fundamentally interdisciplinary endeavour and advances in Ubiquitous Computing depend on the successful blending of perspectives drawn from the science of computing, the engineering of complex distributed systems and the understanding of their use in social settings. This means that in addition to undertaking fundamental research into each of the constituent areas we also need to promote interaction and dialogue across these perspectives. The scale of problems to be addressed requires us to tackle this research at a global scale requiring us to shape a multidisciplinary international community in order to tackle the grand challenge of ubiquitous computing. Within this proposal we wish to put in place the multidisciplinary and international collaborations between world-leading researchers necessary to launch a coordinated international response to the challenge of Ubiquitous Computing. In doing so we aim to lay the foundation required to understand, design and realize future large scale Ubiquitous Computing arrangements that will be embedded in the world we inhabit and shape the ways in which we all live. In order to do so we have assembled an initial grouping from the leading research labs in this area in the world.

信息技术对社会的影响已经非常深远，它重塑了工作、教育、政府、休闲、娱乐和家庭生活。强大的数字基础设施、无线网络和移动的设备的出现已经开始将计算机嵌入日常生活的建筑、家具和个人结构中。虽然曾经我们会与一台计算机进行交互，但移动的电话、数码相机、卫星导航、手持计算机和许多类似的设备今天在我们的日常活动中是司空见惯的。这种向“普适计算”的转变是一个挑战，它影响到计算机科学的各个方面，并对我们未来如何推理、构建和体验计算机系统产生了巨大的影响。这是一个基本的跨学科的努力和泛在计算的进步取决于成功的融合的角度从计算科学，复杂的分布式系统的工程和他们在社会环境中的使用的理解。这意味着，除了对每个组成领域进行基础研究外，我们还需要促进这些观点之间的互动和对话。要解决的问题的规模要求我们在全球范围内解决这项研究，要求我们塑造一个多学科的国际社会，以应对无处不在的计算的巨大挑战。在这一提议中，我们希望在世界领先的研究人员之间建立多学科和国际合作，以发起协调一致的国际应对普适计算的挑战。在这样做的过程中，我们的目标是奠定理解，设计和实现未来大规模普适计算安排所需的基础，这些安排将嵌入我们居住的世界，并塑造我们所有人的生活方式。为了做到这一点，我们已经从世界上这一领域的领先研究实验室中召集了一个初步小组。
