Abstract

In this paper we present an early approach for developing a theoretical framework and understanding for designing pervasive systems as an integral part of the urban landscape. The research will be conducted in the city of Bath as part of the CityWare project, in a heritage environment with tourist attractions. Here we propose to investigate the application of research methods based on Space Syntax, which encompasses a set of theories and techniques for the analysis of space and spatial patterns, as a framework for understanding the complex relationship between pervasive systems, urban space and society in general; and the impact of the deployment of pervasive systems on people’s relationships to heritage, and to each other in particular.
