The purpose of this study is to predict promising Location Based Services under an ubiquitous environment based on their technical characteristics, which is strongly required in rapidly changing circumstances with ubiquitous computing and Broadband Convergence Network (BcN). To begin with, this study proposes a classification scheme of ubiquitous services and defines five technology factors required for ubiquitous services. Next, this study collects a number of ubiquitous services from previous researches and classified them according to the classification scheme of ubiquitous services. And then, technical importance of the collected ubiquitous services are evaluated in terms of technology factors by using service-technology metrics. Finally, a set of important Location Based Services under ubiquitous environments and the correlations between technology factors are identified by using the evaluation results.

The evaluation of ubiquitous computing service is the important work for preparing the commercialization of the ubiquitous business services in which ubiquitous intelligence (ubitelligence) is embedded. However, the methodology for evaluating ubiquitous computing services has not been developed enough. Even the study of making a distinction what is 'ubiquitous' or not is insufficient yet. Hence, this paper aims to propose an integrated methodology to assess the ubiquitous computing services. A multi-layered approach is adopted to assess not only technical but also behavioral service levels.

In 21st century, mankind greets an era of ubiquitous computing where physical and virtual space are merged through the innovation of digital and IT(Information Technology), meanwhile ubiquitous computing and network paradigm suggest a new direction which our future educational system should head for. A society where people, computers, and objects can be connected with each other anytime and anywhere, that is, a society of ubiquitous computing where everything in our living space are interconnected by a immense network system may bring a variety of changes into our educational environment in schools. In this study I analysed the forecast of school educational orientation and ubiquitous educational environment and facilities in developed countries, and on the basis of the result, I performed a fundamental work for formation of a ubiquitous classroom environment which is feasible in Korea. In the section of conclusion, I present a model of ubiquitous classroom as a scenario based on ubiquitous computing technology applicable to future classroom environment.

Recent ubiquitous computing environments increasingly impact on our lives using the current technologies of sensor network and ubiquitous services. In this paper, we propose ubiquitous architectural framework for ubiquitous sleep aid service(UbiSAS) in the subset of ubiquitous computing for refreshing of human's sleep. And we examine technical feasibility. Human can recover his health through refreshing sleep from fatigue. Ubiquitous architectural framework for UbiSAS in digital home offers agreeable sleeping environment and improves recovery from fatigue. So we present new concept of ubiquitous architectural framework dissolving stress. Specially, we apply context to context-aware framework module. This context is transferred to context adaptive inference engine which has service invocation function in intelligent agent module. Ubiquitous architectural framework for UbiSAS using context adaptive rule inference engine without user intervention is technical issue. That is to say, we should take sleep comfortably during our sleeping. And sensed information during sleeping is changed to context-aware information. This presents significant information in context adaptive rule inference engine for UbiSAS. This information includes all sleeping state during sleeping in context-aware computing technique. So we propose more effective and most suitable ubiquitous architectural framework using context adaptive rule inference engine for refreshing sleep in this paper.

It is essential to investigate the structure and the main characteristic of Home USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network) technologies in built ubiquitous environment while designing future residential space. For this study, three different housing types have been selected to implement ubiquitous technologies for residential space; those are regular, elderly, and single residence units. It is certain that efficiency of ubiquitous home design is improved if main components of each specific housing type are analyzed precisely in digital way and design models are prepared accordingly. Ubiquitous technology, in conclusion, has to be applied not on)r with systematical mechanism or electronic setting but in human-centered atmosphere as well, keeping with deep consideration for bio-housing service factors in eco-friendly surrounding; we call this Ubiquitous Humanism.

In an upcoming ubiquitous era, humankind will live in a ubiquitous space, where everything is connected through communication network. In this ubiquitous space, a ubiquitous robot, which can be used by anyone for any service through any device and any network at anytime and anywhere in a u-space, is expected to be required to serve seamless and context-aware services to humankind. In this paper, we introduce the ubiquitous robot, and define three components of the ubiquitous robot. The first one is "SoBot" which can be connected through the network in anywhere with environment recognition function and communication ability with human. The second one is "EmBot" which is embedded into environments and mobile robots and has localization and certification function with sensor fusion. The last one is "Mobile Robot" which serves overall physical services. This paper also introduces KAIST ITRC-Intelligent Robot Research Center that pursues the implementation of the ubiquitous robot.

A contemporary office space is changed by the transformation to an information-oriented society from an industrial society. A contemporary office space is recognized as an interactional space which is more of a mental and psychological space than a physical space. I studied the basic concept of an office space and the relationship of a social change and an office space on this study. I also studied the concept of an ubiquitous computing and the relationship of an ubiquitous computing and an office space. Through this study, we can establish the new concept of an office space to be applied to an ubiquitous concept. The ubiquitous concept of an office space will be brought into a new prototype of an office space, and then there is no more important to a physical place and time. The office space must be redesigned by an ubiquitous space nowadays.

The introduction of a ubiquitous environment has realized commercial ubiquitous services in various industrial fields and government area. The central and/or local governments are demanding an appropriate investment evaluation model for ubiquitous service. Thus, this study develops and suggests an evaluation model for ubiquitous service by reflecting its characteristic of promoting public good, as well as its broad ripple effect on people. The investment evaluation model for ubiquitous service suggested by this study is based on Cost Benefit Analysis Method. Especially, the 'Benefit' is analyzed in two aspects; 'Economic Benefit', which shows the benefit that ubiquitous service providers to the overall local economy, and; 'Financial Benefit', which shows the profit of individual investors participating in the introduction of ubiquitous service. The investment evaluation model for ubiquitous service suggested by this study can be used by the central and/or local government during their evaluation for investment before introducing a ubiquitous service. Also, when introducing a ubiquitous service in public field, the model can be used to support the decision making of private businesses for investment. Finally, it can be used to promote and inform the expected benefits of introducing a ubiquitous service to local residents.

The ubiquitous computing & technology is to make passive IT machinery as the smart-object to solve the problems of information management. These ubiquitous devices can be a concierge of humans lives. In addition, the ubiquitous computing & technology added with Pro-Active processing technology is the intellectual automatic process capacity that probably enhance quality of human's life. Although the social influencing power of ubiquitous computing technology is so critical, research on the social impact of ubiquitous has been studied insufficiently. And, we also need the countermeasures to protect the societies from the side effect of the ubiquitous computing technology. The purpose of this research is to minimize the loss which comes from the new ubiquitous society, by presenting the technological and systematic alternatives and by researching the various side effects. This research suggests the proper alternatives by reviewing and by researching the adverse effects of the ubiquitous computing technology.

2000년대 이후, 정부부처별 유비쿼터스도시사업에 의해 유비쿼터스도시 구축을 전국으로 확산해 나가고 있으나, 근래 들어 유비쿼터스도시에 대한 낮은 체감도가 주요 문제로 대두되고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 많은 연구와 정책 과제에서 시민체감형 유비쿼터스서비스를 발굴하려는 시도가 이어지고 있지만, 유비쿼터스도시계획을 수립하는 단계에서 이러한 서비스를 효과적으로 접목하기 위한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 이 연구에서는 유비쿼터스도시 계획 수립단계에서 적용할 수 있는 필수적인 유비쿼터스도시서비스를 도출하여 유비쿼터스도시의 최소 품질을 보장할 수 있는 방안을 제안한다. 이를 위해 먼저, 163개 시 군 지자체를 대상으로 유비쿼터스도시 추진 현황을 조사하여 U-City의 현주소를 진단하였다. 또한 38명의 U-City 관련 전문가를 대상으로 약 한 달 동안 전문가 설문조사를 실시하여 보편성, 지역경제육성, 사회복지구현, 효과적인 도시관리 관점의 필수적인 14개 유비쿼터스도시서비스를 도출하였다. 마지막으로, 11개 지자체의 유비쿼터스도시계획(안)과 도출된 필수 U-City 서비스를 비교하여 시사점을 도출하였다.
