Students are asked to imagine how useful it would be to track the location and status of every food product from the time it is manufactured until the time it is consumed, and to determine if this is even possible. They need to prepare a report on the potential impact of ubiquitous computing on this company within a five-year timeframe. In the report, students assess the applicable technologies, costs, and probable applications that will improve the company¿s bottom line, and/or product quality, and/or customer service. In the process, they learn to do high-level business process analysis; investigate ubiquitous computing technologies and applications; consider a problem that may be on a vastly larger scale than they¿ve ever considered before; and learn to think globally, as this is the crux of working within the world of eBusiness.
