👉 Laden computing, also known as context-aware or situated computing, refers to the concept of designing computing systems that are sensitive to and responsive to their environment, context, and user needs. Unlike traditional computing, which often operates in isolation, laden computing integrates various data sources—such as location, time, user behavior, and environmental conditions—to provide more personalized, efficient, and adaptive computing experiences. This approach enables devices to anticipate user needs, adjust their functionality accordingly, and deliver relevant information or services in real-time, enhancing overall user interaction and system performance. For instance, a smart thermostat might adjust the temperature based on the time of day and the occupants' schedules, or a mobile app could offer different features depending on whether the user is at work or at home.
