As Ubiquitous systems are developed, the number of context data which are dealt with systems also grow rapidly. In these data, some are vary important in privacy view. As these data are given to users or services of systems, probability of excess exposing of data is exist. To solve this problem, many systems use access control method like RBAC. But even this method can avoid unauthenticated access, can not prevent excess exposing of authenticated access. To prevent this exposing of context data, this paper suggests context data access control framework which abstracts context data when system gives these data to users or services. Using negotiation protocol and context data abstraction technique using RDF, our framework prevents excess exposing important data. This happens protecting privacy and keeping service continuity.

Although construction site photos contain important as_built information, technique and knowledge, there has been lack of frameworks to store and manage construction site photos efficiently and effectively. The problems in site photo management are getting increasingly serious, as digital cameras are adapted as collection tools of site Photos. This research suggests an information framework(named CIIM: Construction Image Information Model) to manage and share construction information based on 5W1H in order to derive construction context, which includes technologies, lessons-teamed and knowledge, from construction site photos, and a site photo management system named CIMS II (Construction Image information Management system II was developed to verify the model. It is expected that the results of this research that are an information framework and an system could help more effective classification, management, search and derivation of context in a construction project.

Context-aware systems are reactive computing systems, aware of external context. Considering various sensors and actuators connected, application programming on top of such systems is known to be much more complex than in contentional ones. This paper suggests a formal framework for context-aware systems, by extracting their common properties. That makes a useful birds-eye view for the behaviors of a whole complex system, as a base for a convenient developing environment and systematic analysis. In this framework, reactive-ness is handled by event-condition-action rules and global state-transitions, which are essential in a lot of context-aware applications. In addition, behaviors of each elementary device are modelled with its own state-transitions, and tightly bound to the entire task.

As Ubiquitous era comes, the importance of service-oriented adaptive software increases. However, there are many issues in development phases of service-oriented adaptive software, like contexts and service search. Though there are many researches which manage these issues separately, still we need more integrated and mature framework for solving these issues. So in this paper, we propose an integrated framework for development of service-oriented adaptive software. Our framework defines processes and work products for development. We also perform a case study which our framework is applied to.

Educational applications of big data analysis have been of interest in order to improve learning effectiveness and efficiency. As a basic challenge for educational applications, the purpose of this study is to develop a comprehensive data set scheme for learning analytics in the context of digital textbook usage within the K-12 school environments of Korea. On the basis of the literature review, the Start-up Mega Planning model of needs assessment methodology was used as this study sought to come up with negotiated solutions for different stakeholders for a national level of learning metrics framework. The Ministry of Education (MOE), Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education (SMOE), and Korean Education and Research Information Service (KERIS) were involved in the discussion of the learning metrics framework scope. Finally, we suggest a proposal for the national learning metrics framework to reflect such considerations as dynamic education context and feasibility of the metrics into the K-12 Korean schools. The possibilities and limitations of the suggested framework for learning metrics are discussed and future areas of study are suggested.

As software is widely used on various environments today, there is an increasing need for adaptive software. Adaptive software is robust and flexible software that modifies its own behavior in response to the changes in its environment. Due to time constraints, high complexity and so on, it is hard to acquire context information from environment. So, when implementing software, it is common to think easily acquired data to be the environments. This research proposes an adaptive software framework that assumes plane images to be environments. Plane images are easy to acquire and have enough complexity. From this, our framework is able to acquire context information, reasons with action rule, and acts on the result of reasoning. Stand on this framework, implements software that plays a simple game automatically.

Traditional applications are executed using the restricted resources of a single computer, do not consider contextual information, and can not support mobile users. However, ubiquitous applications provide optimal services for mobile users using the various resources of computers and the contextual information around users and devices. Thus, ubiquitous applications need to have the functionality of context awareness, user mobility and QoS adaptability. This paper design the CMQ(Context-aware, Mobility-aware, QoS-aware) middleware framework for ubiquitous applications and implement the middleware framework using Jini and Java. The implemented middleware system can process various contexts, provide the session handoff for a mobile user, and allow applications to adjust its QoS dynamically.

Gestures have been employed for human computer interaction to build more natural interface in new computational environments. In this paper, we describe our approach to develop a gesture interface using spatial context information. The proposed gesture interface recognizes a system action (e.g. commands) by integrating gesture information with spatial context information within a probabilistic framework. Two ontologies of spatial contexts are introduced based on the spatial information of gestures: gesture volume and gesture target. Prototype applications are developed using a smart environment scenario that a user can interact with digital information embedded to physical objects using gestures.

In this paper we suggest dynamic access control model based on context satisfied with requirement of u-healthcare environment through researching the role based access control model. For the dynamic security domain management, we used a distributed object group framework and context information for dynamic access control used the constructed database. We defined decision rule by knowledge reduction in decision making table, and applied this rule in our model as a rough set theory. We showed the executed results of context based dynamic security service through u-healthcare application which is based on distributed object group framework. As a result, our dynamic access control model provides an appropriate security service according to security domain, more flexible access control in u-healthcare environment.

The emergence of new types of embedded computing devices and developments in wireless networking are broadening the domain of computing from the work place and home office to other facets of everyday life. This trend is expected to lead to a proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) environments, in which inexpensive and interconnected computing devices are capable of supporting users in a range of tasks. Context-aware computing is a key source to develop such smart services. However, there are many challenges to enable services to be smart; Heterogeneous Computing Environments, Resource Limitations, Large Amount of Data Produced, and Different Requirements for Context Interpretation. Because of these challenges, there are difficulties in providing smart service by utilizing IoT devices. Currently, many researchers are conducting researches on mobile-computing based smart service development and provisioning and network infrastructure for interconnected IoT devices. Still, there are some limitations on developing core technologies for IoT computing based smart service development. In order to remedy this situation, this thesis presents a reusable framework that provides unique and noble features which are required in developing advanced context-aware IoT applications.
