Abstract

The paper describes a methodology for extracting the requirements for ubiquitous computing technology-based information system (IS) using factor analysis. The early idea of ubiquitous computing was articulated by Mark Weiser in 1988 and since then has been constantly developed. However, so far there was no any or few research on application of ubiquitous computing to IS. Prior to the development of a ubiquitous computing-based IS model necessary requirements are to be identified. To derive the requirements we refer to conventional research on ubiquitous computing, ubiquitous service and ubiquitous environment, and hence, to their characteristics. Having specified those requirements using factor analysis technique it will be easier to develop a consistent ubiquitous computing-based IS.
