In 2001 , the eu information society technologies advisory group proposed the concept of ambient intelligence ( ami in abbreviation ) and defined it as “ the convergence of ubiquitous computing , ubiquitous communication , and interfaces adapting to the user ” . the objective of ami is to broaden the interaction between human beings and digital information technology through the usage of ubiquitous computing devices 按照定义,环绕智能是无处不在的计算,无处不在的通信与用户适用界面的融合,目标是设计、实现下一代的、智能化、个性化、以及互联的系统与服务,提供人、机器与整个环绕环境的新型交互方式,从而极大方便人们的日常生活,改善生活质量,为将来实现高度信息化的社会打下基础。
Recent advances in wireless networking technologies and the growing success of mobile computing devices , such as laptop computers , smart phones , personal digital assistants , watches and the like , are enabling new classes of applications that present challenging problems to designers 随着网络技术的迅速发展和不断渗透，随着诸如笔记本电脑、智能手机、 pda 、智能手表等移动设备的快速增长，在任何时候、任何地点都能接入信息网获取所需的信息将成为21世纪新型人类的普遍需求，移动计算技术将使得这种需求得以实现。
The . net compact framework is a hardware - independent environment for running programs on resource - constrained computing devices , encompassing personal data assistants pdas such as the pocket pc , mobile phones , set - top boxes , automotive computing devices , and custom - designed embedded devices built with the windows ce operating system . net compact framework是独立于硬件的环境，可用于在资源受限制的计算设备上运行程序，这些设备包括类似pocket pc的个人数字助理( pda ) 、移动电话、机顶盒、自动计算设备和用windows ce . net操作系统生成的定制嵌入设备。
