Which of the following describes the principle of decentralization in pervasive computing?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking for an explanation of the principle of decentralization in pervasive computing by selecting the correct option from a set of choices.
Answer
Distributing computing across many small, networked devices.
Decentralization in pervasive computing involves distributing computing across many small, unintelligent devices within a network, removing the reliance on a central system.
Answer for screen readers
Decentralization in pervasive computing involves distributing computing across many small, unintelligent devices within a network, removing the reliance on a central system.
More Information
Decentralization is a key feature of pervasive computing that enhances flexibility and robustness by utilizing distributed resources rather than relying on a single central system. This makes the network more resilient to failures.
Tips
A common mistake is confusing decentralization with a lack of coordination. Even though computing is decentralized, the devices often collaborate to achieve complex tasks.
