Abstract

As recent developing computing environments, service is provided without time or place's limitation, and it is constituted dynamically. Above all, in terms of education supporting system, there is need to conceive user's information and provide optimal service as to right with applying context awareness under Ubiquitous computing environment. It should have groundwork based on user location and time. It is requires service providing based on user location under the condition of class to offer appropriate service with the context. In addition, context information providing technology is needed to offer right education support service in the class, where are different context information. Hence, in this research it is suggested education supporting system to provide context-based for instructor. The framework of this system has a foundation within previous work about Multi-agent based Distributed Framework. To examine implementation of context-based education supporting system in Ubiquitous computing environments suggested by this report, arranging system can fit information relates to instructor's location for service applying in the class.

최근 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경은 시간, 장소에 관계없이 주변 환경 변화에 따라 동적으로 구성된 서비스를 제공한다. 특히, 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경에서 교육지원 서비스 분야는 교사인 사용자 정보를 인지하고, 사용자의 이동위치와 시간을 기반으로 상황인식을 적용하여 권한에 맞는 최적의 서비스 제공이 요구되고 있다. 교사의 시간 이동에 따라 상황에 적합한 서비스를 제공하기 위해서 학교 교실환경에서 교사 위치기반의 서비스 지원이 필요하다. 또한 다양한 상황정보로 구성되는 교실환경에서 권한에 적합한 교육지원 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 상황인식을 통한 상황정보 제공 기술이 필요하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 교사를 위한 상황기반 서비스를 제공하기 위한 교육지원시스템을 제안한다. 제안한 시스템의 구조는 기존 연구되었던 멀티에이전트 기반 분산 프레임워크를 기반으로 한다. 본 논문에서는 제안한 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경에서 상황기반의 교육지원 시스템의 수행성을 검증하기 위해 학교 교실에서 교사를 위한 서비스 응용으로 사용자의 위치기반에 따른 적합한 정보를 제공하기 위한 시스템을 구현했다. 그리고 상황기반 교육지원 시나리오에 따라 교사가 위치한 영역과 시간에 따라 모바일 장치를 통해 서비스 수행결과를 보였다.
