== History == Mark Weiser coined the phrase "ubiquitous computing" around 1988, during his tenure as Chief Technologist of the [[Xerox PARC|Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC)]]. Both alone and with PARC Director and Chief Scientist [[John Seely Brown]], Weiser wrote some of the earliest papers on the subject, largely defining it and sketching out its major concerns.<ref name="Weiser91">{{cite web|url=https://www.ubiq.com/hypertext/weiser/SciAmDraft3.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141022035044/http://www.ubiq.com/hypertext/weiser/SciAmDraft3.html |title=The Computer for the 21st Century |year=1991 |last=Weiser |first=Mark |author-link=Mark Weiser |archive-date=22 October 2014 |url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.research.ibm.com/journal/sj/384/weiser.html |title=Ubiquitous computing |date=1999-05-11 |last1=Weiser |first1=M. |last2=Gold |first2=R. |last3=Brown |first3=J.S. |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090310225239/http://www.research.ibm.com/journal/sj/384/weiser.html |archive-date=10 March 2009}}</ref><ref name="Weiser96">{{cite web|url=http://www.ubiq.com/hypertext/weiser/UbiHome.html |title=Ubiquitous computing |date=17 March 1996 |last=Weiser |first=Mark |author-link=Mark Weiser |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180602090007/http://www.ubiq.com/hypertext/weiser/UbiHome.html |archive-date=2 June 2018}}</ref>
