Everything as a service  Infrastructure as a service  Platform as a service  Software as a service Behind the scene: a grid Do not worry, be happy: the cloud takes care of your all your digital activities Issue: digital activity, digital life, life ? For the first time in the history of mankind, some[body, thing] can know everything about your life: your professional data, your friends, the movies/the leisure you like, your friends, your political opinions, your mood…

17. Master course - Lyon, 2010-2011 - 02/06/2015 17 « Vision »: « Calm Technology » « The most profound technologies are those that disappear. They weave themselves into the fabric of everyday life until they are indistinguishable from it » [The objective of pervasive computing is to ] “ … make a computer so imbedded, so fitting, so natural, that we use it without even thinking about it.” “Ubiquitous (pervasive) computing is roughly the opposite of virtual reality. Where virtual reality puts people inside a computer-generated world, ubiquitous computing forces the computer to live out here in the world with people.” « A new way of thinking about computers in the world, one that takes into account the natural human environment and allows the computers themselves to vanish in the background » Mark Weiser, Xerox PARC, 1991-
