Back in the day, people rarely used multiple devices. They could easily substitute their device with a new one when they feel like using better software or need a more feature-rich operating system. But things have changed now. Users use devices differently today. They use multiple devices of different form factors now like tablets, smartphones, wearables etc. alongside desktops and laptops, and conduct activities across them all.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a downside though. Using multiple devices required users to perform atypical actions like USB drives due to context switching. This affects developers as well, as they will have to figure out a way to sustain user engagement while the user switches between devices and applications.<\/p>\n

Each device behaves differently. So switching devices to perform a particular task can be quite complicated. This is where Microsoft\u2019s Project Rome comes in.<\/p>\n

Mobility of Experiences<\/h3>\n

Microsoft\u2019s idea is to solve this complexity and replace it with fluidity i.e. the user gets to move wherever they want while the ecosystem enhances the experience. This mobility of experiences spans areas like form factors, intelligent assistance etc.<\/p>\n

According to the tech giant, Project Rome helps deliver fundamental advances, in a way that adds value across these areas, thus delivering a more personal operating system for next-gen computing.<\/p>\n
