Recently, smart devices has been spreaded and the definition of RFID/USN(Radio Frequency Identification/Ubiquitous Sensor Network) technology has also extended. So, originally, human is an agent of communications but now, 'the things' are also an agent of communication. That is, Internet of Things(IoT). IoT is very big IT infra technology that is based on wire-wireless network technologies such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. However, in reality, IoT service that can provide various meaning and integrate smoothly is not appear yet. To solve these problems of IoT, we implemented Publish/Subscribe system, which operate in Zigbee based wireless sensor network by using MQTT-SN protocol. Moreover, this system can operate with combining MQTT system that is already existed in external Internet network so, extensibility and flexibility aspect is excellent. We show that possibility of IoT services that is combined between different heterogeneous network through the MQTT-SN.

최근 들어 U-City 구축 사업을 수행하고 있는 대다수의 지자체에서는 U-City건설지원법에서 규정하고 있는 U-도시기반시설의 서비스 모델을 정립하고 체계화 하기위해 노력하고 있다. 그 중 공간정보 수요가 높은 도로, 상 하수도 시설물은 국토해양부의 주관하에 90년말부터 현재까지 매칭펀드 사업을 통해 DB 및 시스템을 구축하도록 유도해 왔다. 그러나 정부차원의 이러한 사업이 지자체 지리정보 담당부서와 지하시설물 관리 담당 공무원들 중심으로 단순히 공간정보의 조회 및 편집차원에서 추진되고 있어 활용에 대한 한계가 발생하고 있다. 본 연구는 국토해양부에서 주관하고 있는 '지능형 도시 지하시설물 관리 기술 개발' R&D 사업을 통해 이러한 한계를 극복하고 기존 상 하수도 단위시스템에서 제공하는 조회 및 편집기능이외에도 USN 및 RFID를 적용하여 활용할 수 있는 지능화된 지하시설물 관리업무를 도출하고, 기존 상 하수도 단위시스템과의 연계 모델을 제시하고자 한다.

최근 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅과 유비쿼터스 네트워크를 활용하여 새로운 서비스들을 개발하려는 노력이 진행 중이며, 이와 관련된 기술의 중요성도 급증하고 있다. 특히 감시정찰 센서네트워크의 핵심 구성요소인 저가의 경량 센서노드에서 측정한 미가공 데이터(raw data)를 사용하여 침입 물체의 실시간 탐지, 식별, 추적 및 예측하기 위한 디지털 신호처리 기술은 주요 기술 중 하나이다. 본 논문에서는 감시정찰 센서네트워크의 핵심 구성요소인 소리센서 노드에서 측정한 소리 미가공 데이터를 사용하여 차량을 탐지할 수 있는 소리센서 디지털 신호처리 알고리즘을 설계 및 구현 한다. 알고리즘의 주 목표는 감시정찰용 센서노드의 탐지 신뢰성을 높이기 위한 높은 침입물체 탐지 성공률(success rate)과 낮은 허위신고(false alarm) 횟수를 가지는 것이다. 성능평가 결과에 의하면 제안한 AMIDA 알고리즘은 90% 이상의 탐지 성공률과 2 회 이하의 허위신고 횟수를 가지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

For realizing ubiquitous computing, many research activities are geared towards various areas including embedded computing, RFID, USN, home networking, context-awareness, and etc. By using the ability of RFID technology to recognize a number of objects simultaneously, more convenient ubiquitous application services are effectively provided. In this case, RFID middleware playing a role as a bridge between RFID reader devices and application services is required as well. In this paper, we propose a method of handling a number of types of RFID reader devices in ALE middleware of EPCglobal. For this, the information of connection and data protocol for a reader device is stored in a database as ontology meta-data, and used to interpret the data read by a reader device. By adding ontology data into a database, even though an RFID device newly emerges, ALE middleware can not only handle the device, but also be effectively extended through reusing ontology data, without any changes in the middleware.

u-Wellness is widely applicable to individuals and medical service providers such as hospitals and it includes u-fitness and video health counselling services at the side of the provider and stress management, obesity management, and the amount of exercise at the side of the individual. In this paper, we design and implement a smart health care system which uses the authentication device to identify an individual and the user's smart phone. Our system records and manages the amount of exercise on the basis of the prescription of health care professionals through the exercise equipment and Wi-Fi communication. Therefore, our system helps user do optimized amount of exercise through the health care professional's prescription. And our system quantifies the results of the measurement of body fat measuring machines and experts to build the database and automatically schedule.

The legacy voice broadcast systems are used to broadcast the voice over an entire space or a specific zone. these broadcast systems generate unnecessary noise and waste of resources. In this paper, we propose a ubiquitous voice message broadcast system called uPaging, by combining the technique of location-awareness and the voice message delivery service in ubiquitous sensor network environment. In uPaging system, the wire/wireless hybrid network is used to implement the network system. Also, in order to actualize the location-awareness service, we use the Bidirectional Location ID-Exchange protocol was suggested by our previous research. the uPaging system can deliver the voice to a selected user or the location in which the user is present by this location awareness.

With rapid growth and fast diffusion of smartphone technologies, many users are deeply concerned about the smart applications and many mobile applications converged with various related technologies are rapidly disseminated. Especially, the convergence technologies like mobile apps that can establish the wireless ad hoc network between smartphone and other peripherals and exchange data are appear and progressed continuously. In this paper, we design and implement the smart app using bluetooth based wireless ad hoc sensor network that can connect smartphone with sensors and exchange data for various smart applications. The proposed smart application in this paper collects data obtained from more than 2 multi-sensors in real time and fulfills the decision making function by storing data at the database and analysing it. The smart application designed and implemented in this paper is the healthcare application that can analyze and evaluate the patient's health condition with sensing data from multi-sensors in real time through bluetooth module.

U-Healthcare is one of the major applications in ubiquitous sensor network. U-Healthcare has potential to become a critical service for the people who immediately require emergency ambulatory attention. This paper describes about the real time pulse monitoring and reporting system, consisting of two components: thus, the one is a reliable bio-sensor that continuously monitors the pulse information of the subject, and the other is the automatic transfer system that transmits pulse information to both his/her family and hospital care system through the Base Station. In the hospital, this bio-information can be used to treat the patient accordingly. I designed the pulse information monitored by a bio-sensor module that transfers the pulse information to both the Base Station and the central monitoring system through transmitting protocols such as Zigbee and TCP/IP, as well as designed the architecture of information packets for the corresponding protocols. Furthermore, the central monitoring system automatically parses the pulse information of the subject into the web database server, which can continuously provides the real time information and status of the subject via an internet browser to the clients who are family members of the subject and the authenticated medical care personnel as well.

The current sensor network analyzes the data collected by the sensing of fixed sensor nodes and provides a service. However, this method cannot actively handle the state and the change in the position of people, 'the target for sensing and the change in the environment', including home automation, building automation and real-time road & weather information, and healthcare environment, etc. To support a dynamic situation which is appropriate for an individual in this diverse environment, it is necessary to provide actively differentiated specific information according to the movement of people and the changes in the environment. In this study, a individualized sensor mobile agent middleware which provides the individualized information (the location of fire incidence and the trace for the path of spread), has been realized through the sensor network environment constructed by the installation of wireless sensor nodes mounted with mobile agent middlewares in buildings.

In the past few years, M2M (Machine-to-Machine) applications have become a hot topic in the wireless industry. While M2M applications can be used for many purposes (smart homes, smart metering/electricity meter reading, fleet management, mobile workforce, automobile insurance, vending machines, etc), and in many sectors (healthcare, agriculture, commercial, industrial, retail, utility, etc.), smart metering applications or smart grids present the biggest growth potential in the M2M market today. M2M platform is the future ubiquitous network technologies which provide the integrated service with the networks and devices. The promising technologies to tackle these problems are the Semantic technologies, for interoperability, and the Agent technologies for management of complex systems. In this paper the information communication technique based on the disaster prevention system's for the M2M, concepts and its requirement technology and application are studied.
