The term "dew computing," as used in information technology, first appeared in 2015 in IT literature and since then has become a field of its own. The cloud-dew architecture was proposed as a possible solution to the offline data accessibility problem.<ref name=":7">{{Cite web|url=http://wwwen.zte.com.cn/endata/magazine/ztecommunications/2017/5/articles/201711/t20171124_466311.html|title=Dew Computing and Transition of Internet Computing Paradigms - ZTE Corporation|website=wwwen.zte.com.cn|access-date=2018-06-30}}</ref> At first, its scope included only [[web application]]s; broader applications were later proposed.<ref name=":1" />▼
While [[cloud computing]] has been expanding rapidly, other models based on cloud computing have emerged, including [[fog computing]], [[Edge computing]], dew computing, etc. Proponents claim these novel models can provide better experiences for users.<ref name=":5">{{Cite web|url=https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Doing-More-with-the-Dew:-A-New-Approach-to-Fisher-Yang/693e467a3b5efd3ae578687fa7af3e5e57deca00|title=Doing More with the Dew: A New Approach to Cloud-Dew Architecture - Semantic Scholar|access-date=2018-06-30}}</ref>▼

Cloud computing provides universal access and [[scalability]]. However, having all the resources far from a user's control occasionally causes problems. In the classic cloud computing paradigm, when the internet connection to the [[Server (computing)|servers]] is lost, the user is unable to access their data; dew computing aims to solve this problem.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":6">{{Cite web|url=https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Cloud-dew-architecture-:-realizing-the-potential-of-Wang-Pan/fc8edd29f5df60244a66d05c74c50a240a4529ef|title=Cloud-dew architecture : realizing the potential of distributed database systems in unreliable networks - Semantic Scholar|access-date=2018-06-30}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{Cite news|url=https://phys.org/news/2015-09-dew-ground-cloud.html|title=Dew helps ground cloud computing|access-date=2018-06-30}}</ref><ref name=":4">{{Cite journal|last=Yingwei|first=Wang,|date=2015|title=The initial definition of dew computing|url=https://www.islandscholar.ca/islandora/object/ir:20044|journal=Dew Computing Research}}</ref>

== Definition ==
As an information technology paradigm, dew computing
The key features of dew computing are independence and collaboration. Independence means that the local device must be able to provide service without a continuous connection to the [[Internet]]. Collaboration means that the application must be able to connect to the cloud service and synchronize data when appropriate.<ref name=":4" />
