In this paper, we mainly describe the development of exclusive u-device essentially required to implement new ITS services (taxi call service, service for transportation vulnerable, transport information service, walker's navigator, electronic payment service, call information service etc.). To design this device, Samsung main CPU S3C2440A was selected and large memories (ROM and RAM) which are required for new ITS services are applied. In addition, all of GPS, RFID module, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth functions are included to develop an exclusive device indispensable in the ubiquitous society. For this, in this paper, we first examined detailed design of an exclusive u-device development, and based on the designed contents, the performance of a realized u-device was evaluated. If services are created by linking new ITS services with relevant public institutions or companies, based on application of the exclusive u-device developed as above, they would be expanded to a new blue ocean, expectedly resulting in a big spillover effect in local societies.

u-Life care device collect body bio formation, and classify and store them in exercise patterns. Afterwards, the devices send the data through bluetooth wireless communication to the smart phones which set Google Android operation system at regular intervals. The information is checked out through application. u-Life care device calculates calories spent a day after monitoring activity quantity with 3-axis acceleration sensor. The device judges the status of health through body data mining and consults tailored exercise treatment. When sending body data, the device sends them in smart phone through Blue Tooth wireless communication at once. So, as a strong point, the device doesn't need mobile gateway or home gateway used for sending to web server information sensed from exercise life care products.

카메라를 내장한 휴대용 단말기의 보급과 인터넷 및 무선 네트워크의 급속한 확산으로 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경을 구체화한 새로운 서비스들이 등장하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 4개 분야의 학제간 공동연구를 통해 기존 PC 기반의 인터넷 컴퓨팅 환경에서 적용하기 어려웠던 U-Campus 서비스를 제안한다. 이는 UTOPIA 프로젝트의 일부로서 휴대용 단말기와 이미지 기반 센서인 컬러코드를 이용한 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅형 캠퍼스 서비스이다. 현재 테스트 베드를 구축하고 U-Profile. U-Messaging 및 U-Campus Tour Guide 서비스를 제공하고 있다. 학생. 교수. 교직원 및 학교 방문자들은 U-Campus환경 하에서 다양한 정보를 PDA, 휴대전화, 스마트폰 등 휴대용 단말기를 통해서 언제, 어디서나 자연스럽게 제공 받을 수 있다.

Recently, interest in u-learning to pursue effective learning by using ubiquitous environment in teaching and learning activities. In u-learning environment, learners should be able to push necessary information at the right time and the right place. Also calm technology oriented to, and this means that it can recognize learners' terminal information and to provide adaptive interface. In u-learning environment, main learning terminals would be mobile terminals which support mobility. However, learning in the existing PC environment should not be excluded. Thus, by providing adaptive interface according to various learners' terminal in LMS for u-learning, learners are able to learn through consistent and natural learning interface with any computer or any network at any place and at any time. The purpose of this study is to propose the interface adaptation based on terminal information focusing on the layout transformation process in the development environment.

Most of existing biomedical signal measurement devices measure and evaluate biomedical signal only in a single device. Also, even if the device is multi-functional, those biomedical signals can be measured by selection of the user. In this paper, we implemented wristband-style biomedical signal measurement device for u-healthcare system to solve the problem above. Implemented device uses 4 infrared sensors to measure the pulse, 2 electrodes to measure the skin conductivity, and 3-axis accelerometer to measure momentum. Also, we propose a communication packet frame for transmitting biomedical signal data to PC or mobile device, using Zigbee. Studies show that our device has the error rate of less than twice for pulse measurement, 85.6%, 84.7% reliability for momentum measurement, and the skin conductivity has changed according to the user's physical status.

유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅이라는 개념이 정보통신 분야의 패러다임으로 자리잡은 지 오래임에도 불구하고 실생활에서 이용 가능한 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 관련 서비스는 극히 적다 U-Messaging 서비스는 카메라가 내장된 모바일 단말기와 무선 인터넷을 활용하여, 캠퍼스 환경이라는 물리적 공간과 센서를 활용함으로써 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 개념을 잘 보여주고 있다. U-Messaging 서비스는 이미지 태그가 부착된 명패와 단말기를 이용하여 방문자의 음성과 문자 메시지를 전달하고 사용자는 나중에 방문기록과 메시지를 조회하도록 해주는 서비스이다. 학생과 일반인을 대상으로 한 사용성 평가결과 서비스에 대한 인지성, 편리성, 유용성 측면에서 만족할 안한 결과가 도출되었다.

In this paper, we propose u-learning hub site systems which are designed and implemented based on learning activities oriented components. The proposed systems are composed of component which can process the functionalities for coming into action of learning activities through various devices. Specially, each component is broken into class units by which learning activities of users can be performed on various devices. When users try to connect u-learning system in hub site, the system explores devices of users and connection program and then selects components that are fit to the activities and combines them in realtime. Through the methodology of u-learning hub site, the system proposed in this paper provides u-learning environment so that users can use the learning activity services taking no influence on time, place, devices and programs under the consistent system. That is different to traditional e-learning system which cannot support various devices of users directly.

In wireless network, energy efficiency is an important design consideration for continuous multimedia streaming service. This paper proposes a new streaming system, called BACASS (Buffer-Aware and Content-Aware Streaming System) that working on the 802.11e U-APSD (Unscheduled Automatic Power Save). The BACASS leads the DP (Doze Period) of U-APSD for improving energy efficiency by utilizing the PSNR based on content-aware and client buffer occupancy that is hinged on a network-aware streaming system using SVC. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed streaming system.
