Network agnosticism: why networks must disappear

Abstract

This article discusses pervasive computing as it relates to mobile content and mobile networks in particular, and argues that we need a unified networking concept that can bridge fixed and wireless networks and heterogeneous wireless technologies. It also discusses contemporary software applications that provide a content strategy that can transport a users personal content and identity between networks, and calls for more work in this area. The article discusses current interconnectivity and interoperability between networks in Australia and recommends more work in this area
