One of critical issues in the housing area is what strategies should be adopted for revitalizing contemporary communities in housing complex. It is expected that those strategies could encourage neighbourship and recover the existing community spaces. Based on the assumption that contemporary communities might have different characteristics from those of the traditional communities and spaces, this research aims to explore the possibility of new communities in a current context. With the development of the information communication technologies (ICT) and hardware systems, the environment would be capable of anticipating people's needs and then provide them with customization options to tailor the environment to their requirements. By incorporating the 'smart' paradigm, this paper introduces the concept of a smart community and space with the potential of mobile Augmented Reality(AR) as alternative strategies for activating the communities. The residents believe that existing common spaces need to be extendable and augmented by combining new technologies. The smart communities and spaces are expected to extend people's interaction to virtual world in aj real context, further combined with social network, it enables sustainable relationships among residents, contributina to a new type of community.

u-City is a new concept and phenomena of applying Information & Communications Technology(ICT) into real cities in Korea. In order to effectively integrate a city with high-tech ICT infrastructure, cutting-edge ICT is being integrated into physical urban environments from the planning and construction stage of a city. There are positive expectations regarding its effect on urban planning and citizens' lives. However, construction of u-city has technical limitations as well as institutional obstacles. This paper aims at identifying problems of current u-city practices and suggesting appropriate solutions for those problems. To do so, it first collects opinions from diverse experts. Then, it draws problems and suggests solutions in terms of u-infrastructure, u-service, policy and implementation process.

Home Gateway which composes Home network in Ubiquitous Computing environment is an equipment to provide the connection with the external Internet Physically, and it carry out the role which communication, control and monitor is important. But Home gateway has potential threats because it connected on external Internet as spillage user's information from outside wrongdoers. Consequently, Home gateway has to have security module and structure for the communication which is sate. In this research paper, We designed Home gateway security structure for the communication which is protected when computer user use the computer from the outside to home to send information or important data.

Summation generator with high period and high linear complexity can be easily implemented by a simple hardware or software and it is proper to apply in mobile security system for ubiquitous environments. However the generator has been some weaknesses from Dawson's divided-and-conquer attack, Golic's correlation attack and Meier's fast correlation attack. In this paper, we propose an improved version($2^{128}$security level) of $E_0$algorithm, CVC-NSG(Circular-Clock-Controlled - Nonlinear Summation Generator), which partially replaces LFSRs with nonlinear FSRs and controls the irregular clock to reinforce it's own weaknesses. Finally, we analyze our proposed design in terms of security and performance.

Smart Home or Home Network technology is one that continuously creates added value, making a better life. This paper designed and developed a smart home control system using smart phone. This proposed smart home system consists of home server control system, remote smart application system and home node structure. Home node structure, in detail, is composed of intrusion detection, gas leakage or gas valve control, door lock, automatic curtain, ventilation control and On/Off control modules and these modules are controlled at home server. Home server makes it easy to control home automatic control system anytime, anywhere as it provides remote interface that enables control via smartphone and user interface in itself.

The researches about the hardware and the software implementing ubiquitous sensor network have great rush in recent years. This paper deals the development of a sensor node with the dual interface which also has an RF wireless interface while has an Bluetooth interface used widely in present. This sensor node includes a Atmeg32 microcontroller, a Bluetooth module, a RF module. a temperature-humidity sensor. and I also develop the F/Ws controlling each modules with C language using GCC compiler. The sensor node developed can reaches 15m with Bluetooth interface and 60m with RF interface. It works stably with the voltage above 5V and it consumes currents 21mA average in idle mode, 63mA average in active mode.

This paper analyzed the PHY technology of IEEE 802.15.7 which is a technology trend and international standard of the LED-based VLC communication system. Also, the study analyzed the complexity of the system as well as the reception performance in a visible light wireless channel environment by analyzing detailed technology of PHY I mode and designing the RS code and block interleaver. According to the result, concerning PHY I which is operated in a single mode, it was confirmed that the complexity in designing the system was higher compared with an environment of the transmission of a short massage. Also it was confirmed that in a multi-path visible light channel environment, the reception SNR=1.5dB was required additionally.

Mostly used sensors have wired powering and two-way cable systems. It is difficult to employ wired sensor network in ubiquitous era because of a number of sensors and cables. Therefore, sensor networks move from wired systems to wireless systems for the future. However, the power source is a critical obstacle for wireless sensornodes. This research represents the new power source which supplies energy sensor node, maintains over 10 years, and thus replaces batteries with limit of lifetime. The system with piezo materials scavenges extra energies such as vibration and acceleration from the environment. Then it converts the scavenged mechanical energy to electrical energy for powering a sensor, a controller and a circuit for regulating voltage and transmitting sensor value. This study explains the properties of piezo material through theoretical analysis and experiments, and demonstrates powering sensor and transmitting data with stored energy (35mJ) for 14 sec. The developed system provides a solution to overcome the critical problem of making up wireless sensor networks.

This paper is about adult certification on Mobile RFID Service Environments coming through the combination of RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification) technology, as the core technology of ubiquitous environments, and mobile telecommunication technology. To overcome the shortcoming of simple adult certification on current internet, we suggest a framework for content-based classification and propose an adult certification system using it. At first, we explain conventional methods for adult certification, and show a criteria of content-based classification for preventing an exposure of adult contents from minors. Additionally, we describe data structure and system for the proposed adult certification on mobile RFID environment, and finish it with concluding remarks.

Home gateway is always full-powered for ubiquitous home services, and consumes much energy yearly. Power-saving algorithm to conserve this energy must reduce the energy consumption and preserve always-on services. Our algorithm predicts current idle period using the history of the past idle period when the idle period starts, and then determines whether the power mode is changed to the saving mode or not. On the power saving mode, it processes the simple protocol data for network control using proxying with no wakeup. And it changes the power mode to active mode when user's traffic exists. As the results of the simulation using real traffic, our algorithm saves the energy consumption from 14% to 49% as compared with existing method.
