Ethical concerns related to technologies such as ubiquitous computing and ambient intelligence are discussed. A workshop addressing such concerns, the Ethical Guidance for Research and Application of Pervasive and Autonomous Information Technology (PAIT), is described, which featured demonstrations of such technologies, and discussion of their potential advantages and drawbacks. pubtype: Periodical doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 2011 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
