  • Pervasive computing is characterized by a key characteristic that affects the operating environment of services and users. It places more emphasis on dynamic environments where available resources continuously vary without prior knowledge of their availability, while in static environments the services provided to users are determined in advance. At the same time, Cloud computing paradigm introduced flexibility of use according to the user's profile and needs. In this paper, we aimed to provide Context-Aware Transactional Service applications with solutions so that it can be integrated and invoked like any service in the digital ecosystem. Being able to compose is not enough, each service and application must be able to offer a well-defined behavior. This behavior must be controlled to meet the dynamicity and adaptability necessary for the new user's requirements. The motivation in this paper is to offer design patterns that will provide a maximum of automatism in order to guarantee short reaction times and minimal human intervention. Our proposal includes a cloud service model by developing a PaaS service that allows CATS adaptation. A new specification for the validation of CATS model has been also introduced using the ACTA formalism.

  • It can improve human being's life quality that all people can have more convenient medical service under pervasive computing environment. 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 medical information server accumulates sensing values and performs back-end processing. To simply transfer these sensing values to a medical team is a low level's medical service. So, we've designed a new service model based on back propagation neural network for more improved medical service. Our experiments show that a proposed healthcare system can give high level's medical service because it can recognize human's context more concretely.

  • The crowdsourcing software development (CSD) is growing rapidly in the open call format in a competitive environment. In CSD, tasks are posted on a web-based CSD platform for CSD workers to compete for the task and win rewards. Task searching and assigning are very important aspects of the CSD environment because tasks posted on different platforms are in hundreds. To search and evaluate a thousand submissions on the platform are very difficult and time-consuming process for both the developer and platform. However, there are many other problems that are affecting CSD quality and reliability of CSD workers to assign the task which include the required knowledge, large participation, time complexity and incentive motivations. In order to attract the right person for the right task, the execution of action plans will help the CSD platform as well the CSD worker for the best matching with their tasks. This study formalized the task assignment method by utilizing different situations in a CSD competition-based environment in artificial intelligence (AI) planning. The results from this study suggested that assigning the task has many challenges whenever there are undefined conditions, especially in a competitive environment. Our main focus is to evaluate the AI automated planning to provide the best possible solution to matching the CSD worker with their personality type.

  • 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅은 무수히 많은 센서들이 관련 데이터 처리 시스템들과 또는 센서들 간의 정보 공유를 통해 서비스를 제공하면서 특정한 장치나 위치에 구애받지 않고 사용자들이 서비스를 이용할 수 있도록 해 준다. 이 논문에서는 유비쿼터스 환경하에서 현재 가장 활발하게 활용되고 있는 RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification) 시스템이 지니는 문제점을 정의하고 이를 극복할 수 있는 새로운 RFID 시스템 구조를 제안한다. 현재의 RFID 시스템은 특정 분야에만 한정하여 단순히 미리 주어진 태그의 식별자를 통해 대상을 식별하는 응용만으로 그 활용성이 제한되어 있다. 이 논문에서는 이러한 제한된 현재의 RFID 시스템의 문제점을 해결하고 유비쿼터스 환경에 적합한 활용성을 극대화할 수 있는 MDR(Metadata registry) 기반의 RFID 시스템 구조를 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 특정 응용 분야에 종속되지 않고 다양한 분야와의 원활한 연계성을 제공한다. 또한 새로운 정보의 의미를 동적으로 처리할 수 있기 때문에 보다 넓은 응용 범위를 제공한다.

  • The rapid growth of Hardware technologies and Network fitted to us Ubiquitous Computing Life[1]. Ubiquitous Computing integrates computation into the environment, rather than having computers which are distinct objects. There are many computational things like a Sensor Network, RFID, GPS, Mobile devices, and so on. Ubiquitous Data Integration and Management are new paradigms. The goals of UDI Service Platform are data protection for the distributed data on pervasive computing devices and data distribution to appropriate users with best distribution policies. To implement the idea we evaluate the logical schema Cyber View that is a management tool.

  • Estimation of human motion states is important enabling technologies for realizing a pervasive computing environment. In this paper, an improved method fur estimating human motion state from accelerometer data is introduced. Our method fur estimating human motion state utilizes various statistics of accelerometer data, such as mean, standard variation, skewness, kurtosis, eccentricity, as features for classification, and therefore is expected to be more robust than other existing methods that rely on only a few simple statistics. A series of experiments fur testing the effectiveness of the proposed method has been performed, and its result is presented.

  • Pervasive computing and Internet of Things (IoT) have recently received considerable interest to deploy solutions for the future Internet. Smart environments are integrated with Semantic Web to provide context-awareness to the processed information. Self-learning techniques have been adopted within smart solutions for efficient retrieval of data but do not process data with privacy parameters for in-place authorization. To overcome this issue, we present a novel approach of deploying access control as a service mechanism within Semantic Web based smart environment by using eXtensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML). The proposed XACML as a Service (XACMLaaS) approach offers fine-grained access control for protecting information within smart environment. In this paper, we have defined mathematical rules for each components of proposed access control service layer. These rules are for implementation of access control using XACML. The proposed approach allows the adaptation of authorization of information at component level and provides scalable solution for authorization policies and rule enforcement within smart environment.

  • Rapid advances in ubiquitous computing and its pervasive influence over our society demand an efficient way to locate resources over the network. In mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) which is a special type of the sub-networks in ubiquitous environment, effective resource discovery is particularly important, due to their dynamics and the resource constraints on wireless nodes. In this paper, we propose an adaptive and efficient resource discovery strategy for MANETs. Our strategy also provides a solution to bridge different types of networks which coexist in ubiquitous environment.
