Abstract

Key Insights
Activity-Centric Computing (ACC) addresses deep-rooted
information management problems in traditional applicationcentric
computing by providing a unifying computational
model for human goal-oriented ‘activity,’ cu‹ing across
system boundaries.
We provide a historical review of the motivation for and
development of ACC systems, and highlight the need for
broadening up this research topic to also include low-level
system research and development.
ACC concepts and technology relate to many facets of
computing; they are relevant for researchers working on
new computing models and operating systems, as well
as for application designers seeking to incorporate these
technologies in domain-speci€c applications.
