Currently, the amount of containers is growing up continuously. However, they still depend on humans checking or validating. In this situation, humans must participate in the systems. Situation-awareness technologies allow human participation to be minimized. The situation-awareness technologies provide data or service appropriate to the object's current state, and the state is recognized automatically by the system. They can automatically execute working processes without human intervention. We suggest a middleware system based on situation-awareness technologies using an ontology for the safety transportation of containers. The middleware is aware of the current state and sends the data required by an application. It can help build new applications by enhancing agility, and it can also support automated service processing by invoking the service required like fire-fighting, fixing container, and so on. Improving transportation of containers process automation with situation-awareness technologies reduces manpower requirements for checking and validating containers, and so saves logistics costs of container transportation.

Uncertainty of result of context awareness always exists in any context-awareness computing. This falling-off in accuracy of context awareness result is mostly caused by the imperfectness and incompleteness of sensed data, because of this reasons, we must improve the accuracy of context awareness. In this article, we propose a novel approach to model the uncertain context by using ontology and context reasoning method based on Bayesian Network. Our context aware processing is divided into two parts; context modeling and context reasoning. The context modeling is based on ontology for facilitating knowledge reuse and sharing. The ontology facilitates the share and reuse of information over similar domains of not only the logical knowledge but also the uncertain knowledge. Also the ontology can be used to structure learning for Bayesian network. The context reasoning is based on Bayesian Networks for probabilistic inference to solve the uncertain reasoning in context-aware processing problem in a flexible and adaptive situation.

센서 네트워크는 배터리 교체가 어려운 저가의 소형, 저전력 센서 노드들로 구성되며 멀티 홉 방식으로 통신하기 때문에 센서 네트워크 수명을 연장하기 위한 라우트 선정 방법은 중요하다. 그러나 다수의 라우팅 기법은 노드의 정적인 상태 정보만 이용하여 라우트를 선택하기 때문에 링크 상태에 따른 데이터 손실이나 특정 노드의 에너지 부족에 의해 발생하는 패스 손실과 같은 동적인 상황은 반영하지 못하는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이웃 노드들의 상황을 인지하여 가장 데이터를 전달 받기 좋은 상황에 있는 노드를 라우트로 선택하는 기법을 제안하며, 제안하는 기법을 SARS(Situation Aware Route Selection)라 부르겠다. 제안하는 SARS는 이웃 노드들의 상황을 고려하여 라우트를 선택하기 때문에 데이터 손실이나 패스 손실에 의한 재전송 노드의 수를 최소화 할 수 있고, 이를 통해 센서 네트워크 수명이 연장되는 효과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경의 목표는 시간과 장소, 장치나 네트워크 종류에 구애 받지 않는 다양한 서비스를 제공하는 것이다. 이러한 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경의 개념을 가지고, 본 논문에서는 사람들이 언제 어디서나 어떤 장치를 가지고 있든지 상관없이 즐길 수 있는 정황인지 유비쿼터스 엔터테인먼트(Situation-aware Ubiquitous Entertainment)를 위한 미들웨어와 아키텍처를 제시하였다. 정황인지는 이종 플랫폼 간에 끊김 없는 서비스를 제공해주는 역할을 한다. 이를 이용하여 구현한 영화와 게임의 프로토타입을 통해서 정황인지 엔터테인먼트 서비스의 가능성을 알아볼 것이다.

According to the development of information technology, there are many services in our life. These services make our life safe and convenient. However, the increment of the services also causes the increment of human concern and effort to control these services. The context-aware service is the service that provided their functionality at the right time and to the right place by analysis user's current situation. The most previous studies about context-aware service regard that context-aware services are defined by the developer who has expertise in information technology. The definition of the context-aware services by the developer makes difficult to reflect user's personal preferences and life pattern to the services. In this paper, we propose an user interface EUCAS(by End-User, Context-Aware Service development) that make the user can define and manage their own context-aware service according to their preferences. We expect EUCAS can be effective user interface technology for providing personalized context-aware service.

This paper describes the design and implementation of situation recognition system with smart phone sensors, which recognizes the dangerous situation at anytime, anywhere through intuitive data analysis of the combination of the sensor. The implemented system consists of wearable heart rate sensor and acceleration sensor of smart phone instead of existing sensor that is attached to the body. It is also designed to get more effective results of recognition about the dangerous situation using merged displacement values of acceleration sensor and heart rate sensor which are measured in the process of recognizing dangerous situations. This research, in accordance with the wide penetration of smartphones, achieves the fast status determination through the combination of an acceleration sensor and a heart rate sensor applied to its own status perception algorithm for anyone who needs the stable perception of risk without the need for a separate provision of the sensor.

As we go about our daily lives, people often collect surrounding information and adapt to the situation. Computer development trends show that one wants computers to work like human beings, i.e. computers can sense its context and adapt corresponding to context changes. To implement this expectation, a context aware service layer is needed. In this layer, sensors capture its environment and send this information to the service center. Considering received information as its context, the service center seeks the suitable operation according to the context. Tills paper presents a context aware service which is applied in controlling air-conditioner. The air-conditioner includes sensors which are installed at some special positions in a room. Each of these sensors gathers comfort-influenced information like temperature, humidity and sends them to air-conditioner. The air-conditioner adapts its operation to the environment according to the sensed information. To control the air-conditioner effectively, we use a genetic algorithm which is suitable in adaptation issues. The simulation shows that the room condition can be maintained at a comfortable level by using context-aware services in the operation of the air-conditioning system.

With rapid growth of content demands, device-to-device (D2D) content sharing is exploited to effectively improve the service quality of users. Considering the limited storage space and various content demands of users, caching schemes are significant. However, most of them ignore the influence of the asynchronous content reuse and the selfishness of users. In this work, the user preferences are defined by exploiting the user-oriented content popularity and the current caching situation, and further, we propose the social-aware rate, which comprehensively reflects the achievable contents download rate affected by the social ties, the caching indicators, and the user preferences. Guided by this, we model the collaborative caching problem by making a trade-off between the redundancy of caching contents and the cache hit ratio, with the goal of maximizing the sum of social-aware rate over the constraint of limited storage space. Due to its intractability, it is computationally reduced to the maximization of a monotone submodular function, subject to a matroid constraint. Subsequently, two social-aware collaborative caching algorithms are designed by leveraging the standard and continuous greedy algorithms respectively, which are proved to achieve different approximation ratios in unequal polynomial-time. We present the simulation results to illustrate the performance of our schemes.
