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.

언제, 어디서나, 어떤 기기와도 접속을 가능하게 하는 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 시대가 다가오고 있다. 이러한 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅이 가능하기 위해서는 기본적으로 사람과 사물을 유일하게 식별하고, 이를 바탕으로 하여 서비스가 제공되어야한다. RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification)는 자동 인식 및 데이터 획득 기술의 하나로 사람의 작업이나 판단을 요구하지 않으면서 객체의 ID를 자동적으로 취득하고 온라인으로 관련정보를 자동 처리하는 기술이다. 즉, 차세대 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅의 핵심 기반의 기술이다. 현재 신성장 동력 산업의 하나로 RFID가 선정되었으며, 다양한 응용서비스 시험 사업과 관련 기술의 개발이 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 RFID 활용 사례를 파악하여 기업들이 새로운 비즈니스 가치를 창출하기 위한 전략을 수립하는데 도움을 주고자 한다.

With the development of RFID and USN technology, kinds of services are appeared and industrialized to maximize management, maintenance and efficiency of production. In the agricultural field, it is important to increase productivity and quality of food by managing growth environment of plants. In this paper, to apply IT technology to agriculture, we present a mobile service application called WiSEMobile which support growers to monitor and manage the information in the field from remote sites. By using the service with mobile devices, farmers can monitor the change of environment with data from sensor nodes, manage and exchange kinds of data gathered by farmers in the field.

The key of USN(Ubiquitous Sensor Network) technology is low power wireless communication technology and proper resource allocation technology for efficient routing. The distinguished resource allocation method is needed for efficient routing in sensor network. To solve this problems, we propose an algorithm that can be adopted in USN with making up for weak points of PQ and WRR in this paper. The proposed algorithm produces the control discipline by the fuzzy theory to dynamically assign the weight of WRR scheduler with checking the Queue status of each class in sensor network. From simulation results, the proposed algorithm improves the packet loss rate of the EF class traffic to 6.5% by comparison with WRR scheduling method and that of the AF4 class traffic to 45% by comparison with PQ scheduling method.

The article introduces developing trends of an adaptive mobile terminal as an interface for use of various network resources, such as public wireless networks and un-licensed wireless networks in ubiquitous sensor network environments, without troublesome settings or operations by users. These adaptive mobile terminals able to provide seamless services that adapt autonomously to the user's movements and changes in the state of wireless resources. Consequently, adaptive mobile terminals should be had respective independent hardware structure of usable wireless networks.

The world today, has come to an age of diverse paradigms and technologies being developed, and technology of a new field is realized by merging technologies of different fields.One of such, u-Health system refers to a system which can monitor its users, regardless of time and place, using many body sensor datas based on USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network). In the past, this kind of u-Health system was able to collect sensor datas through wires and could be monitored only by using PC (Personal Computer), but with development in technology, the system is now becoming possible to collect sensor datas wireless and monitor unhindered by time and place. This research aims to collect sensor datas of the user, and through Jena inference network, provide web service and smartphone application which enables checking of user's body datas in times of emergency, whenever, wherever.

In an proposed Context-Aware SOA(Service Oriented Architecture) based OSGi(Open Service Gateway initiative) platform, Service provider manages relative kinds of services in an integrative basis from various sensors, puts each service in a SOAP (Simple Object access Protocol) message, and register thorn to the UDDI(Universal Description Discovery and Integration) server of service registry, service requester retrivel the specified kinds of services and call them to service provider. Recently most context-aware technologies for ubiquitous home network are mainly putting emphasis on RFID/USN and location-based technology. Because of this, service-oriented architecture researches have not been made enough. Under the environment of an OSGi service platform, various context-aware services are dynamically mapping from various sensors, new services are being offered for the asking of users, and existing services are changing. Accordingly, the data sharing between services provided, management of service life cycle, and the facilitation of service distribution are needed. Taking into considering all these factors, this study has suggested an Context-Aware SOA based eclipse SOA Tools Platform using OSGi platform that can transaction throughtput of more than 546 TPS of distributional Little's Law from ATAM(Architecture Tradeoff Analysis Method) while remaining stable other condition.
