Personal and Ubiquitous Computing (PUC)

Personal and Ubiquitous Computing is a long-established, bimonthly peer-reviewed scientific journal published by Springer Nature since 1997. The journal serves as a leading forum for reporting high-quality research in the rapidly evolving fields of ubiquitous and pervasive computing, where computation is embedded into everyday objects and environments, and where digital systems interact intelligently with users and contexts. By fostering a multidisciplinary perspective, it brings together researchers from human-computer interaction, mobile and wearable computing, context-aware systems, Internet of Things (IoT), ambient intelligence, and related domains to explore the design, implementation, and evaluation of computing technologies that are personal, socially aware, and seamlessly integrated into daily activities. Typical contributions include novel theoretical frameworks, empirical evaluations, design case studies, system prototypes, and methodological insights that advance understanding of how computing enhances or transforms human experiences. The journal is particularly valued for bridging conceptual innovation with practical application, addressing both human-centred concerns (such as usability, accessibility, and social impact) and technical challenges (such as sensing, context inference, energy-efficient design, and adaptive systems). With a strong editorial oversight and rigorous peer review, Personal and Ubiquitous Computing continues to shape the scholarly discourse on pervasive technologies and their role in ubiquitous, connected futures.
