Nowadays, it is very challenging task to reveal the scientific knowledge due to availability of numerous research materials. The use of visualization tools to discover scientific models and their relationship is very difficult. The intellectual structures of a particular knowledge domain can be captured by visualizing the knowledge structures. This paper comprehensively explores the scope and major themes of ubiquitous multimedia computing research. To analyze the leading research themes in the said field, three visualization techniques are used which linkage the publications, citation, research projects and patents in ubiquitous computing. The scientific papers from Institute of Scientific Information (ISI) web of knowledge (CiteSeerX) are clustered for the future research direction. The results show that recent popular research trend is going towards health care.
