 THE VISION
Computation blending into peoples’ lives just
like Oxygen we breathe…

• Pervasive, human-centered computing.

• carrying along personal devices wont be required as they

would be available everywhere for anyone to use .

•A central database where everyone’s data would be stored.

 SYSTEM TECHNOLOGIES
The Oxygen System

N21

E21

Handheld O2 software system

H21 devices

Speech, vision, sketching

 E21: Intelligent Spaces
Camera arrays
RADAR

Displays

Microphone arrays

• Collection of embedded devices, called E21s, create intelligent

spaces inside offices, buildings, homes, and vehicles.

• Sense and affect our immediate environment.

For e.g. Entities situated to

• monitor and change temp of a room,

• close a garbage door,
• redirect emails to friends, etc.
 H21: Mobile Devices

Generic Device
empower us to communicate and compute, no matter where we are.
 N21: Network Technologies

• help our machines locate each

other as well as the people,
services, and resources we want to
reach.

• integrate different wireless,

terrestrial, and satellite networks
into one seamless internet.
 Oxygen in action:
Context-aware networking
• “Spontaneous” networking
• Context-aware speech-driven active
maps (location-specific)

• Resource discovery and secure

information access
• Vertical mobility
 O2S: Software Technologies
Oxygen's software architecture relies heavily on

• Abstraction:
to support change above device and network levels.

• Specification:
to support components that use these abstractions.

• Persistent object-oriented stores with transactional semantics:

to provide operational support for all oxygen technologies.
 Software Policies: E21
• E21 software is robust. It recovers from failures by
trying tasks again & again with a different selection
of resources every time.

• E21s provide software repositories, from which H21s

can download code to reconfigure themselves for
particular tasks.
 Software Policies: H21
• Software allows H21 to adapt flexibly to changing channel
conditions

• reduce transmission power to

channel Low noise conserve energy.
Tx
• use a larger constellation size to
increase the transmission bit-rate.

• increase the number of filter taps

channel High noise
Rx and clean up the signal.
• request a change in transmission
power or modulation format.
 USER TECHNOLOGY
• Spoken language & Visual cues
Modes of interaction as per the task at hand.

•Knowledge Access
Finds the information you want by remembering what you’ve
looked at before .

•Automation
Offloads repetitive tasks from your brain to the computer.

•Collaboration
Tracking and documenting a working group’s discussions and
interactions
