현재 우리는 Ubiquitous IT기술을 활용한 편의시설이 곳곳에 적용되어 가고 있는 도시에 서 살아가고 있으며, 이러한 Ubiquitous IT기술은 발전에 발전을 거듭하여 우리가 느끼지 못하는 곳까지 확대되어 가고 있다. IT산업과 도시산업의 융·복합화을 통해 형성되는 새로운 도시의 개념인 u-City는 다양한 u-Service의 제공을 통해 국민의 삶을 향상시키는데 의의가 있다. 정부에서도 Ubiquitous 활성화 정책과 u-City 관련 산업 육성을 위해 노력하고 있으며, 이에 Ubiquitous 환경 및 정보인프라 구축등 기술적 구현은 빠르게 발전되고 있다. 그러나 u-Service의 효과를 체험하고 보다나은 서비스가 제공될 수 있도록 정보를 제공해 주어야 하는 소비자(국민)들은 계층별 정보격차로 인해 체감할 수 있는 u-Service가 미흡한 것으로 파악된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 정보격차 분석을 통해 계층별 소비자 맞춤형 u-Service 적용방안을 제시하고자 한다. 이에 본 논문은 u-Service의 기본단위인 도시에서 생겨나는 정보격차 속성을 이해하고, 정보격차의 주체별 분석을 통하여 올바른 u-Service를 적용할 수 있는 효율적인 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

The ubiquitous environment is to support people in their everyday life in an inconspicuous and unobtrusive way. This environment requires information such as the person, his/her preferences, and habits which is available in the ubiquitous system. In this paper, we propose the context aware system that can provide the tailored information service for user in ubiquitous computing environment. Our system architecture is divided into 4 domain models such as context awareness, presentation, interface and inference domain. Each domain model can perform some predefined tasks independently. And we suggest the hybrid algorithm combined with fuzzy and Bayesian method in order to reason what is the suitable information for user. We show the possibility for the real application through applying the system to the TGA (Tour Guide Assistant) for Kyoungju historical site.

Ubiquitous electronic commerce can offer anytime, anywhere access to network and exchange convenient informations between individual and group, or between group and group. To use secure ubiquitous electronic commerce, it is essential for users to have digital signature with the properties of integrity and authentication. The digital signature for ubiquitous networks is required neither a trusted group manager, nor a setup procedure, nor a revocation procedure etc. because ubiquitous networks can construct or deconstruct groups anytime, anwhere as occasion demands. Therefore, this paper proposes a threshold ring signature as digital signature for secure ubiquitous electronic commerce using the ring signature without forgery (integrity) and the (n,t) ring signature solving the problem cannot prove the fact which a message is signed by other signer. Thus the proposed threshold ring signature is ubiquitous group signature for the next generation.

In the ubiquitous environment, it is scattered all over our neighboring in many smart objects. These smart objects constantly produce the information and the amount of the generated information is massive. As the internet search engine came out to help us to find the useful data from the sea of the information connected to the internet, the sensor data stream processing middleware is appearing to make us to develop the ubiquitous service easily by extracting the meaningful information from the massive sensor data and delivering the extracted information to the application which makes our life convenient. We have to inform the information relating to the provided service to a middleware so that the ubiquitous service can be provided by using sensor data stream processing middleware. In this paper, we classify the information which is needed to express the ubiquitous service which uses sensor data for the service providing. And we propose a distinct markup language called Context-driven Service Markup Language (CSML) to effectively describe this information. We can easily express the various ubiquitous services which have to be provided in the various situations using proposed CSML.

The exhibition and convention industry offers facilities and services required to host expositions and conferences. Currently, it has been greatly esteemed as a promising industry because it can produce a higher added value and maintain a pure environment at the same time as an aggregate of service industries. Like other industries, the need of digitalization and information system in the exhibition and convention industry makes it introduce ERP and MIS and nowadays ubiquitous related model projects are ongoing. In this paper, we conduct researches regarding the systematic introduction of ubiquitous related technologies through the service and information system identification of exhibition and convention industry, and analysis of value chain and critical success factor. We consider RFID, ZigBee and mobile related technologies as the ubiquitous related technology types and select the exhibition witness and the maintenance of facilities as the area of related technologies introduction. In addition, we propose a scheme used to analyze and solve the problems which could be occurred when ubiquitous related technologies are applied. The results of this paper could be used as a policy to nourish exhibition and convention industry, and a guideline of the host organizations.

Business organizations are asked to create new business models utilizing current technological innovations such as ubiquitous computing technology for developing new domains of business to obtain a competitive advantage and achieve a sustainable development. This study was focused on the processes for developing new and practical business models. The purpose of this study was to propose ubiquitous sport business modeling processes from the modeling framework. In particular, this study focused on developing new, pragmatic, and effective sport business models, and this new type of business is defined as 'u-sport.' For design the business model, extensive literature reviews and case studies were conducted for benchmarking the cases and expert group review was conducted for developing u-sport business model framework. The suggested business modeling processes in this study were consisted of four phases; 1) organization strategy level setting phase, 2) business strategy level setting phase, 3) business structure level setting phase, and 4) service level setting phase. The modeling processes were verified to adapt ubiquitous sport business. This designing and modeling process is expected to play a significant role on enhancing the technology-based business environments as the process mainly focuses on the service and consumer oriented approach rather than technology and suppliers oriented approach. In conclusion, establishing sport business models by adapting the service modeling process will deliver an exponential growth and development of future ubiquitous based industry.

Ubiquitous Healthcare (u-Healthcare) is the intelligent delivery of healthcare services to users anytime and anywhere. To provide robust healthcare services, recognition of patient daily life activities is required. Context information in combination with user real-time daily life activities can help in the provision of more personalized services, service suggestions, and changes in system behavior based on user profile for better healthcare services. In this paper, we focus on the intelligent manipulation of activities using the Context-aware Activity Manipulation Engine (CAME) core of the Human Activity Recognition Engine (HARE). The activities are recognized using video-based, wearable sensor-based, and location-based activity recognition engines. An ontology-based activity fusion with subject profile information for personalized system response is achieved. CAME receives real-time low level activities and infers higher level activities, situation analysis, personalized service suggestions, and makes appropriate decisions. A two-phase filtering technique is applied for intelligent processing of information (represented in ontology) and making appropriate decisions based on rules (incorporating expert knowledge). The experimental results for intelligent processing of activity information showed relatively better accuracy. Moreover, CAME is extended with activity filters and T-Box inference that resulted in better accuracy and response time in comparison to initial results of CAME.
