It is important that ubiquitous technology changes paradigm of thought, not simple definition in the 21st digital era. Characteristics of ubiquitous computing are pervasive, disappearing, invisible, calm through environment. As IT Technology develops, designers, computer scientists, chemists, performance artists cooperate in order to find out the best way to make desirable digital clothing in the future, with the merit of each part. Digital clothing defines clothes of new generation equipped computer, digital installations. Digital clothing design demands intercept of electromagnetic waves, light-weight and esthetic appearance, for it is attached high-technology equipment near body. The purpose of this study is to analyze design features of digital clothing according to ubiquitous characteristics. The methods of this study are documentary research of previous study and case study. In the theoretical study, ubiquitous characteristics are function-intensive by convergence, interactivity, embedded mobility and human & emotion-oriented attributes. Based on ubiquitous characteristics, digital clothing design classified function-intensive design by convergence, design for Interactivity and multi-sensible & emotion-oriented design, because embedded mobility is a basic element of ubiquitous environment. The early days digital clothing design is function-intensive design, and have esthetic appearances and design for interactivity increasingly. Recently digital clothing design is expressed multi-sensible and emotion-oriented design.

최근 유비쿼터스 환경에서 센서 네트워크를 이용한 여러 가지 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 향후 USN 인프라 구축이 완료됨에 따라 USN을 활용하기 위한 USN 어플리케이션 개발을 보다 손쉽게 하기 위해 USN 미들웨어(USN Middleware)의 필요성이 대두되며, 디렉토리 서비스(Directory Service)는 USN 미들웨어를 구성하는 핵심 서비스 중의 하나이다. USN 인프라가 인터넷과 결합된 USN 환경에서의 디렉토리 서비스는 USN 계층의 자원에 대한 개별적인 속성을 돌려 줄 수 있어야 한다. 그러나 풍부한 컴퓨팅 자원, 높은 대역폭(bandwidth) 및 짧은 지연시간, 멀티캐스트 기능 등을 가지고 있는 인터넷과 달리 USN을 구성요소인 WSN(Wireless Sensor Network)은 제한된 컴퓨팅 자원, 에너지 문제, 낮은 대역폭, 무선 통신의 불안정성 등의 특성을 가지고 있다. 이러한 이유로 디렉토리 서비스 기술은 WSN에 직접 적용하기가 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 디렉토리 서비스에서 나타날 수 있는 문제와 WSN의 특성을 고려하여 USN 인프라에 적합한 USN 디렉토리 서비스 (Ubiquitous sensor network Directory Service: UDS)를 설계 및 구현한다.

Exiting systems are essential to prevent casualties in case of fire. However, existing guidance systems are lack of flexibility because their functionalities are fixed when they are planned. In this paper, a system is introduced which guides evacuees in realtime by processing data it gathers throughout various sensors in realtime. It is planned and designed to aid quick and efficient evacuation, and produced, installed and tested in an underground space to show its feasibility. In building the system, ubiquitous techniques are employed for its sensor network and evacuee positioning in an attempt to make it cheap and extendable.

Stream data, gathered from ubiquitous sensor networks, change continuously over time. Because they have quite different characteristics from traditional databases, we need new techniques for storing and querying/analyzing these stream data, which are research issues recently emerging. In this research, we implemented a storage manager gathering stream data and storing them into databases, which are sampled continuously from sensor networks. The storage manager cleans faulty data occurred in mobile sensors and it also reduces the size of stream data by merging repeatedly-sampled values into one and by employing the tilted time frame which stores stream data with several different sampling rates. In this research furthermore, we measured the performance of the storage manager in the context of a sensor network monitoring fires of a building. The experimental results reveal that the storage manager reduces significantly the size of storage spaces and it is effective to manage the data stream for real applications monitoring buildings and their fires.

In ubiquitous environment, more small, lightweight, cheap and movable device is used than one device used in wired network environment. Multimedia service which is anytime, anywhere, is provided by device. However, it does not ensure the fair use of multimedia contents and causes damage to the contents providers because of illegal copy and distribution and indiscriminate use of digital contents. For solving this problems, DRM is applied to wired network but it has the problems does not protect stored license and manage license completely because of depending on simple protection such as device authentication and cryptographic algorithm. This paper proposes the license management model using digital forensic and DRM that prevents contents and licenses from distributing illegally and also enables the creation of evidence for legal countermeasure and the protection of license in whole life cycle.

Snow fall and icing on traffic roads in the winter season cause not only inconvenience but unexpected traffic accidents, so the proper measures are needed. The existing road information system is being installed for steep slope roads in mountain areas, however, it is not widely adopted because it is too expensive. In this paper, a novel and cost-effective road weather information system especially for snow fall and icing on roads is proposed. The system consists of digital temperature and relative humidity sensor, infrared temperature sensor, ultrasonic sensor, CMOS camera, and two types of control/communication board for ubiquitous sensor network to send the data to server. The server program including the decision making method with received data is also described. Experimental results are provided to prove the feasibility of the proposed system.

Software simulations have been widely used for the design and application development of a wireless sensor network that is an infrastructure of ubiquitous computing. In this study, we develop a sensor network simulator that can verify the behavior of sensor network applications, estimate execution time and power consumption, and simulate a large-scale sensor network. To implement the simulator, we use an instruction-level parallel discrete-event simulation method. Instruction-level simulation uses executable images loaded into a real sensor board as workload, such that it results in the high degree of details. Parallel simulation makes simulation of a large-scale sensor network possible by distributing workload into multiple computers. The simulator can predict the amount of power consumption based on operating time of modules in a sensor node and counting the number of executed instructions by kind. Also it can simulate ubiquitous applications with various scenarios and debug programs. Instruction traces used as workload for simulations are executable images produced by the cross-compiler for ATmega128L microcontroller.

This research dealt with the methodological procedures of ubiquitous sensor networks, applying to urban ground facilities. Recently Korean government established a guide, "u-City IT Infra guide v1.0" when promoting u-City implement projects. This guide conceptually included general processes about u-City mainframe in overall, but its guidance could not lead the detailed procedures and methods for specific ground facility. Therefore, this research proposed the details of the procedure for the intelligence of facilities after reviewing the existing procedures for ubiquitous city. Newly proposed procedure for the intelligence of facilities was consisted of selection of facility and sensors for intelligence, setting a level for intelligence, and suggestion of service model for the selected facility.
