Special Feature Pen Computing A TechnologyOverview and a Vision Andr Meyer Beneath the rule of men entire~ great The pen is mightier than the sword. Baron Edward George Bulwer-Lytton, Richelieu, 1838 This work gives an overview of a new technology that is attracting growing interest in public as well as in the computer industry itself. The visible dif~rencej~om other technologies is in the use of a pen or pencil as the primary means of interaction between a user and a machine, picking up theAGmiliarpen andpaper inter~ce metaphor. From this)allows a set of consequences that will be analyzed and put into context with other emerging technologies and visions. Starting with a short historical background and the technical advances that begin making Pen Computing a reali~, the new paradigms created by Pen Computing will be explained and discussed. Handwriting recognition, mobility and global infbrmation access are other central topics. This is j~llowed by a categorization and an overview of current and future systems using pens as their primary user inte~ce component.
