The context prediction algorithms are not suitable to provide real-time personalized service for users in context-awareness environment. The algorithms have problems like time delay in training data processing and the difficulties of implementation in real-time environment. In this paper, we propose a prediction algorithm with user modeling to shorten of processing time and to improve the prediction accuracy in the context prediction algorithm. The algorithm uses moving path of user contexts for context prediction and generates user model by time-series analysis of user's moving path. And that predicts the user context with the user model by sequence matching method. We compared our algorithms with the prediction algorithms by processing time and prediction accuracy. As the result, the prediction accuracy of our algorithm is similar to the prediction algorithms, and processing time is reduced by 40% in real time service environment.

Smart phone allows advertisers to estimate customers behavior by selecting user context awareness information and gives users instant feed back about their behavior. Electronic equipments such as smart phone enable advertisers to advertise interesting product for each customers at the point of purchase. In this paper, we deal with the trends of Smart phone and internet based TV in the spotlight as the upcoming advertising media and propose the effective way of advertising, Smart Advertising model, which can give users advertising contents of their interesting product by collecting user context information from a variety of devices including N-screen in smart space. This model will induce modern people who live in flood of advertisements to buy products by providing interesting advertising contents.

Mobile Augmented Reality (mobile AR), as one of the most prospective mobile applications, intends to provide richer experiences by annotating tags or virtual objects over the scene observed through camera embedded in a handheld device like smartphone or pad. In this paper, we analyzed the current status of the art of mobile AR and proposed a novel Points of Interest (POIs) data model based on ontology to provide context-aware information retrievals on lots of POIs data. Proposed ontology was expanded from the standard POIs data model of W3C POIs Working Group and established using OWL (Web Ontology Language) and Protege. We also proposed a context-aware mobile AR platform which can resolve three distinguished issues in current platforms : interoperability problem of POI tags, POIs data retrieval issue, and context-aware service issue.

In this paper we present a framework for a novel kind of context-aware preference query composition whereby queries for the Preference SQL system are created. We choose a commercial e-business platform for outdoor activities as a use case and develop a context model for this domain within our framework. The suggested model considers explicit user input, domain-specific knowledge, contextual knowledge and location-based sensor data in a comprehensive approach. Aside from the theoretical background of preferences, the optimization of preference queries and our novel generator based model we give special attention to the aspects of the implementation and the practical experiences. We provide a sketch of the implementation and summarize our user studies which have been done in a joint project with an industrial partner.

With ubiquitous computing aid, it can improve human being's life quality if all people have more convenient medical service under pervasive computing environment. In this paper, for a pervasive health care application for diabetes patient, we've implemented a health care system, which is composed of three parts. Various sensors monitor both outer and inner environment of human such as temperature, blood pressure, pulse, and glycemic index, etc. These sensors form zigbee-based sensor network. And as a backend, medical information server accumulates sensing data and performs back-end processing. To simply transfer these sensing values to a medical team may be a low level's medical service. So, we've designed a model with context awareness for more improved medical service which is based on ART(adaptive resonance theory) neural network. Our experiments show that a proposed healthcare system can provide improved medical service because it can recognize current context of patient more concretely.

Since smart phones have various embedded sensors and high portability/usability, they have emerged as suitable targets to collect information and to provide intelligent services. That is, with a smart phone, we can collect information about user's circumstances and phone usage from sensors and infer his/her current state which is the significant basis for context-aware services. However, a service system should be founded on a context model to ensure reasonable context-awareness, because context information the system needs depends on its target services. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a hierarchical mobile context model for context inference of smart phone users in their daily life. We classify high-level context which can be draw from sensing data into three levels, Context-Behavior-Situation, and define inference methods for each level. With our mobile context model, we can user's meaningful context in his/her daily life besides simple actions or states.

Privacy and security are latent problems in pervasive healthcare system. For the sake of protecting health monitoring information, it is necessary to classify and categorize the various contexts in terms of obfuscation. In this paper, we propose the physiological context categorization and specification methodology by exploiting data fusion network for automatic context alignment. In addition, we introduce the methodologies for making various level of physiological context on the context aware application model, which is wear-UCAM. This physiological context has several layers of context according to the level of abstraction such as user-friendly level or parametric level. This mechanism facilitates a user to restrict access to his/her monitoring results based on the level of details in context.

Context-awareness is a computing technology that automatically delivers useful services to users based on their situation. Most previous studies on context-awareness adopted the view that the user simply is a consumer of what the developer creates. Few studies addressed catering to the need of personalized services for the user. They are either too complex for the user to grasp or unable to express many useful services due to their weak expressive power. To address these issues, we propose Dobby as a new model and architecture for user-driven context-aware service development. Dobby enables the user to create services that are more suited to his personal preferences. We argue that Dobby offers an enhanced method for defining personalized context-aware services over existing methods.

Mobile network evolution and development of USN technologies introduce new business model based on context awareness. Cellular operators provide friend finding service using cell based location information and telematics service using GPS location information. Recently cellular operators provide yellow page service based cell based location information. In this paper, we develop mobile tour application on WIPI platform based on location information. Mobile tour information services provide the best information based on context awareness using user location information from LBSP (Location Based Service Platform), season, weather conditions, time from Web server, and personal preference information stored in database. Mobile tour information service application is developed on WIPI platform.
