1. GRID COMPUTING
The Biometrics Grid: A Solution to Biometric Technologies
Anlong Ming and Huadong Ma
By simplifying resource management and making data easy to access, the
biometrics grid could benefit academic collaborations and enhance
biometric systems' efficiency in scientific research and commercial
applications.

2. FROM IEEE PERVASIVE COMPUTING: GUEST EDITORS' INTRODUCTION <article>
Urban Computing
Tim Kindberg, Matthew Chalmers, and Eric Paulos
Urban settings are challenging places for experimentation and
deployment, and they remain little explored as pervasive computing
environments for largely practical reasons.
http://dsonline.computer.org/portal/pages/dsonline/2007/09/b3gei.html

3. FROM IEEE PERVASIVE COMPUTING: INFORMATION ACCESS
AnySpot: Pervasive Document Access and Sharing
Jonathan Trevor and David M. Hilbert
AnySpot is a Web-service-based platform that seamlessly connects users
to personal and shared documents wherever they go, meeting several key
requirements of pervasive information access.

4. KEYNOTE LECTURE
Toward EventWeb
Ramesh Jain
This PerCom 2007 keynote lecture presents the history of the World Wide
Web and its evolution into a web of documents, discussing the current
need for an EventWeb, or web of events.
http://dsonline.computer.org/portal/pages/dsonline/2007/09/o9002.html

5. DISTRIBUTED WISDOM
Concurrency and the Principle of Data Locality
Hagit Attiya
Interference among operations can affect the throughput of concurrent
applications. Although this interference is difficult to alleviate, it's
measurable, and future research might help reduce it.
http://dsonline.computer.org/portal/pages/dsonline/2007/09/o9003.html

6. FROM IEEE PERVASIVE COMPUTING
New Products
Maria Ebling and Eyal de Lara
Learn about a robot that scares away pest birds, technology that
harvests electricity from the wind generated by passing traffic, a taxi
navigation system, a cell phone that can sense motion, and other
products and initiatives.

7. NEWS
Key Management Standards Hit the Fast Track
Greg Goth
As enterprises increasingly turn to encryption to meet data-security
demands, they need open standards for encryption key management.

8. FROM IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON MOBILE COMPUTING
A Two-Layer Key Establishment Scheme for Wireless Sensor Networks
Yun Zhou and Yuguang Fang
LAKE is a novel key establishment scheme that facilitates the
establishment of both Transport Layer Keys and Link Layer Keys between
sensor nodes in a two-dimensional space.
