Pervasive technologies allow people to get information from everywhere and at anytime. The rapid development of smart mobile devices on the one hand and the progress of wireless networks on the other, has led to the widespread growth of pervasive technologies. Pervasive devices are small pieces of hardware that allow users to communicate over the Internet. Due to their capabilities, which enable users to develop the software they need, many applications for mobile devices have emerged.
