Context-Awareness is a important technology to support optimized services automatically by recognizing various context informations in ubiquitous environments. Previous middlewares which supports ubiquitous environments used a centralized storage and DBMS to store and manage context informations and service contents. Centralized management of context informations and service contents sometimes hinders the autonomy of moving node and interoperability between difference middlewares. In this paper, we design the systems which stores context informations in moving node by distributed form and shares service contents between middlewares in distributed ubiquitous environments. And it provides Context-Aware scripts to supports the definition of context informations reasoning and execution of services. It verifies the usefulness of the designed systems by applying the scenario of music playing service based on context awareness

유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경을 구축하기 위해서는 사용자 및 주변 상황에 관한 인지기술이 필수적이다. 이에 따라 이기종 분산형 시스템에서 언어와 기종에 영향을 받지 않고 사용자 Context를 인지하고 표현하는 문제는 해결해야할 중요한 과제로 대두되었다. 이에 따라, 본 논문에서는 이 과제를 해결하기 위하여 시맨틱 웹 기술 및 퍼지 개념을 이용하여 사용자 Context를 기술하는 것을 제안한다. 온톨로지는 컴퓨터가 정보자원의 의미를 파악하고 자동적으로 처리할 수 있도록 고안된 지식표현 언어이므로 이기종 시스템 하에서의 사용자 Context를 표현하는데 적합하다. 한편, 사용자가 접할 실세계의 환경은 일반집합(Crisp Set)으로 표현하기 힘들기 때문에 본 논문에서는 퍼지개념과 표준 웹 온톨로지 언어 OWL이 융합된 Fuzzy OWL언어를 사용했다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법은 Context를 Fuzzy OWL로 표현하기 위하여 먼저 사용자가 접한 환경정보들을 수치로 표현한다. 그리고 이를 OWL로 기술하며 OWL로 표현된 사용자 Context를 Fuzzy OWL로 변환한다. 마지막으로 퍼지 개념이 포함된 사용자 Context를 이용하여 자동적인 상황인지가 가능한지 여부를 퍼지 추론 엔진인 FiRE를 사용하여 실험한다. 본 논문에서 제시한 방법을 사용하면 이기종 분산시스템에서도 사용할 수 있는 형태로 Context를 기술할 수 있다. 그리고 기술된 Context를 기반으로 현재 사용자가 접한 환경의 상태를 추론할 수 있다. 또한 퍼지 기술 로직 언어(Fuzzy Description Logic)기반 추론기인 FiRE를 이용하여 이를 검증한다.

This paper presents a text-driven discourse analysis system, called DPAS. DPAS constructs a discourse structure by weaving together clauses in the text by finding discourse relations between a clause and the clauses in a context. The basic processing model of DPAS is based on the stack based model of discourse analysis suggested by Grosz and Sidner. We extend the model with dynamic programming method to handle various discourse ambiguities effectively and efficiently. We develop the idea of a context space to keep all information of a context. DPAS parses a text by considering all possible discourse relations between a clause and a context. Since different discourse relations may result in different states of a context, DPAS maintains multiple context spaces for an ambiguous text. Since maintaining all interpretations until the whole text is processed requires too much computing resources, DPAS uses the idea of depth-limited search to limit the search space. If there is more than one discourse relation between an input clause and a context, DPAS constructs context spaces one context space for each discourse relation. Then, DPAS applies heuristics to choose the most desirable context space after it processes some more input clauses. Since the basic idea of DPAS is domain independent, although we used descriptive texts to demonstrate DPAS, we believe the idea of DPAS can be extended to understand other styles of texts.

With the recent advance in smartphones, users are allowed to use mobile applications anytime anywhere, and change their way to interact with smart environment and people. As a result, the need for developing context-aware applications on smartphones has a great attention from users and developers. This paper proposes a context-aware framework for supporting UI/UX of smartphones. The proposed framework collects a wide range of sensory data from smartphones and allows developers to analyze and model context models for their desired apps. In addition, it also supports real-time inference within the apps to make them to adapt to context. In order to show effectiveness of the proposed framework, we introduce two smartphone apps: context-aware home screen and automatic detection of smartphone problem use. Therefore, we expect that the proposed framework will help developers easily implement their apps with respect to context-awareness.

A context-aware services platform supporting mobile agents consists of sensor nodes and a sensor coordinator. Sensor nodes collect environmental information and transmit the collected information to the sensor coordinator through wireless sensor networks. The sensor coordinator passes the information to the context-aware service module, and the mobile agent. The context-aware service module or the mobile agent performs services suitable for a user's situation based on the environmental information and a service actuation message is delivered to an actuation node through the sensor coordinator. In this paper, we present a context-aware services platform structure employed in our project, and describe context-aware services platform interfaces with a context-aware service module and mobile agents.

Recently complexity of embedded software cause to be used real-time operating system (RTOS) to implement various functions in the embedded system. And also, according to requirement of complex functions in embedded systems, the number as well as complexity of tasks get increased continuously. In case that many tasks collaborated in a microprocessor, context switching time between tasks is a overhead waisting a CPU resource. Therefore the time of task context switching is an important factor that affects performance of RTOS. In this paper, we concentrate on the improvement of task context switch for reducing overhead and achieving fast response time in RTOS. To achieve these goal, we suggest multiple register files and task context switching algorithm. By reducing the context switch overhead, we try to ease scheduling and assure fast response times in multitasking environment. As a result, the context switch overhead decreased by 8~16% depend on the number of register files, and some task set which are not schedulable with single register file are schedulable due to that decrease with multiple register files.

Sensors used in many USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network) domain applications generate a large amount of sensor stream data. The volume of sensor stream data is too huge to store the whole data and data speed is too fast to control each of them. In order to provide rapid and reliable context analysis service over sensor stream data, we propose a WHEN-DO context analysis model that supports the functionality of sliding window. This model is designed to be used as follows: If the sensor stream data satisfies condition in 'WHEN' clause, then it will execute actions in 'DO' clause in WHEN-DO context analysis model. The proposed WHEN-DO context analysis model can be applied to many other USN environment applications such as monitoring the status of a building and then taking actions in corresponding context condition.

In recent years, automatic document summarization has been widely studied in the field of natural language processing thanks to the remarkable developments made using deep learning models. To decode a word, existing models for abstractive summarization usually represent the context of a document using the weighted hidden states of each input word when they decode it. Because the weights change at each decoding step, these weights reflect only the local context of a document. Therefore, it is difficult to generate a summary that reflects the overall context of a document. To solve this problem, we introduce the notion of a general context and propose a model for summarization based on it. The general context reflects overall context of the document that is independent of each decoding step. Experimental results using the CNN/Daily Mail dataset show that the proposed model outperforms existing models.

In this paper, we introduce visual contexts in terms of types and utilization methods for robust object recognition with intelligent mobile robots. One of the core technologies for intelligent robots is visual object recognition. Robust techniques are strongly required since there are many sources of visual variations such as geometric, photometric, and noise. For such requirements, we define spatial context, hierarchical context, and temporal context. According to object recognition domain, we can select such visual contexts. We also propose a unified framework which can utilize the whole contexts and validates it in real working environment. Finally, we also discuss the future research directions of object recognition technologies for intelligent robots.
