Abstract :
As new technologies continuously wash floods of information over individuals via both personal devices and public ICT systems, it´s becoming increasingly difficult for individuals to allocate their attention to the right things at the right times. Given this overabundance of information, attention management is of great interest to the pervasive computing community. The articles in this issue focus on understanding how attention is allocated and how information is perceived and shared so it can lead to informed decisions and behavioral change.
