Ad hoc networks - formed or used for specific or immediate problems or
needs, fashioned from whatever is immediately available.

"Picture a day when a billion people will interact with a million
e-businesses via a trillion interconnected, intelligent devices"
- Louis V. Gerstner Jr., CEO IBM
Go forth and explore!
"The move to pervasive computing -- coupled with the convergence of digital
technologies into devices of ever changing form factor -- will be defining
themes early in the next century. Shifting our solution designs first
towards component-based computing, followed closely by a view of
architecture unbound by traditional platform constraints, will ensure that
the applications we build today are ready to support the topologies of
tomorrow.
If pervasive and nomadic computing can be thought of as the realization of
the goals of ubiquitous computing, then surely they represent a killer
application of the component concepts!
Push those component objects beyond the constraints of the network and free
your users from their desks… who knows what new worlds they may discover as
they sail off towards the horizon."
