|
The number of people who yet have either inferior service or no access needs to be a major concern to research and development leaders in engineering and e-commerce. The challenge for cyberspace leaders is to recognize and resolve the problem of the disenfranchised groups in the world who have not yet been touched by the concept of pervasive computing. The continued dominance of urban markets controls the direction of the free enterprise development of computing. Less populated and smaller markets in rural parts of the world go unserved or have to endure much slower, inferior, and non-competitive access. Professional engineering and education societies need systematic plans to increase potential for inclusiveness in the practical implementation of the pervasive computing vision. Innovation unheeded by major parts of society defeats the efforts of exceptional researchers. To further develop a pervasive cyberworld, technologists need to include groups that have been disenfranchised or disinterested.
