Recently, developing U-City as an integrated set of ubiquitous space services has been regarded as a promising field in realizing ubiquitous computing technology. However, well organized requirement analyses of U-City to declare what kinds of ubiquitous space services are needed and which ubiquitous computing technology should be incorporated to come up with the needs are still insufficient. Hence, the aims of this paper are to propose a set of unique U-City construction philosophies and to analyze which services should be offered in the ubiquitous space services in U-Cities. A field survey to the citizens who are potential end users of the ubiquitous space services was conducted to analyze the success factors of U-City using CSF methodology. Focused group interview with professionals in the field of ubiquitous computing technology in Korea was then performed to identify the relationship of the ubiquitous space services and the critical success factors.

Ubiquitous computing technology makes an impact on the appearance of u-learning and presents an advanced direction of futuristic school education. In ubiquitous learning environments, various embedded computational devices will be pervasive and interoperable across the network for supporting the learning, so users may utilize these devices anytime anywhere. An important next step for ubiquitous learning is the introduction of context-aware learning service that employing knowledge and reasoning to understand the local context and share this information in support of intelligent learning services. However, the existing studies on design and application of ontology context model to support context-aware service in actual school environments are incomplete state. This paper, therefore, suggests a scheme of constructing ubiquitous learning space for existing school network by introducing USN to support context-aware ubiquitous learning services. This paper, also, designs an ontology based context model for ubiquitous school environments which describes context information through OWL. To determine the suitability of proposed ubiquitous learning space and ontology context model, we implement some of context-aware learning services in the ubiquitous learning environments.

In the 21st century, Korean society has continually changed into information society, knowledge society, and recently ubiquitous society. Therefore, 'ubituious' has become one of the most popular terms, and in many sectors of our society the ubiquitous environment has become more and more realities. And, universities are facing the need for changes in teaching and learning as well as library services. In this research, to enhance and vitalize the ubiquitous learning and academic library services, the following topics are discussed: First, the concept of 'ubiquitous' is defined and its major elements are examined. Second, the trend of establishing the information environment in higher education and developing the ubiquitous learning are investigated. Third, the present situation of ubiquitous campus and libraries are reviewed. Fourth, proposed are the strategies of developing those ubiquitous learning and library services in universities in Korea.

This study is aimed at interpreting into changes and characters of function applied into quantative analysis in ubiquitous house. Digital technology being introduced into architectural fields, It applied expansively from design and construction to user's convenience. The application of digital technology is presented to various change like effectiveness and exactness in design and function of space, which is overlayed digital space to physical space beyond the extent of receiving human needs in physical space. In ubiquitous house, digital technologies are supplied to function coordinated with life, appreciating into positional informations of human and materials, spatial informations. Ubiquitous house is comparably effective into funtional expansion, user's convenience, safty, which, for the future, is going to using on housing of high performance encouraging the application of advanced technology. Therefore this study is classified into human behaviors, functions, performances and characters of digital system in ubiquitous house, which being established into the relation of elements, is interpreted numerically into functional changes and charats being applied to ARM.

New space concept is gaining attention by the change of information and digital technology. It is called a concept of ubiquitous space which is united physical space and digital space. A united into a new space which is called ubiquitous space. It is an emerging concept of new era which is already applied in some part of our daily life the advanced. The advanced technology can help people to realize ubiquitous space including u-health care. Through analysis of characteristics of u-health care space, I am going to suggest new concept of ubiquitous space which is called u-space. It can make change of conventional health care space to vitalized new space and help people's life to be affluent.

Recently many researchers are growing more and more interested in the fusion of technology. Especially, The government of Republic of Korea announced city planning by using ubiquitous. Hit the ground running for U-city are processing, there are many discussion about how to fuse between city and ubiquitous. In this paper, we review for fusion technique of city space and ubiquitous technology and discuss applicable for ubiquitous city.

The current status of developing ubiquitous campus is needed to enhance the part of facility management because the development of the campus is focused on education and administration parts. This study is a basic research for facility management of the campus. And this study is to contribute to make a plan for ubiquitous facility management of the campus. The ubiquitous campus can not be developed by only information technology, it should be developed in phases, such as law, administration, etc., and needed long-term commitment. This study will make a basic data for this phase of developing the ubiquitous campus.

As people are aging, there are changes about biological psychological sociological. For these reasons, it will arise that changing body size, decreasing power of body, shrinking of living, becoming dull the senses, and feeling alienation loneliness sense of distance about society. Many studies have been done to give residential space supporting older adults' living. Recently many ubiquitous technologies are being development and applied to residential space. The purpose of this study was to classified ubiquitous services by housing supporting concept and older people's physical, psychological and social characteristics and to identify needs for ubiquitous services by older adults. The researches developed a survey instrument and collected the data from 260 people in July to August, 2008 who were more than 40 years old. The results of this study found that residents' current needs and suggested ubiquitous services in future residential environment for older adults.

Ubiquitous computing which is called, the innovation of the 21st Century is a core technology of next generation. RFID technology is noticed, and physical distribution, home network, telematics, like industry automatization are developed by using various technique. Particulary, They use RFID technology for fashion and beauty industry, So, supplying network management, physical distribution management and warehouse management are investigated for the automatization. What we have investigated so far, a traceability system is made of ubiquitous sensor network for monitoring fashion and beauty industry environment. The proposed system using EPC network can provide information of industrial products traceability quickly and efficiently. Moreover, this system with RFID Technology gives intelligence of distribution and record. In this paper, We recommend the vision of Ubiquitous convergence of fashion and beauty industry.

The emergence of ubiquitous autonomic computing and network environment will change the service architecture information system which will be a new application area in SCM/logistics systems. In this study we surveyed the technical trend map of ubiquitous and its application in SCM/logistics support system design. We described the evolutional model of ubiquitous computing community for SCM/logistics system. It is consisted of three view points; self-growing, autonomic, and context-aware, which will allow the decision makers to be benefited from web and mobile technology and are useful for proactive SCM/logistics support system. Finally, we suggested a cooperative research planning for the development ubiquitous system between the government research center, university, and industry research activities.
