The future will see a significant shift away from the traditional computer as we know it, replaced by a new generation of technologies that integrate computing with real-world objects and environments. This evolution will make computing an inseparable part of our daily activities, becoming a ubiquitous utility akin to electricity—an invisible, pervasive medium that reveals its functionality only when needed. The editors, part of the EU-funded Disappearing Computer research initiative, have curated a collection of 13 chapters and three forewords that delve into the challenges and opportunities in this field. The authors are leading researchers focused on developing people-centered smart environments. This compilation offers a unique blend of concepts, methods, and prototypes in ubiquitous computing, reflecting the growing interest in smart environments and ambient intelligence. Forewords from notable figures highlight the initiative's pioneering role in advancing ambient intelligence and the importance of user experiences in shaping future technology. Emile Aarts from Philips Research emphasizes the book's significant contribution to understanding the relationship between ambient technology and human behavior, filling a crucial gap in knowledge.
