Convergence is an important concept for driving our society to be ubiquitous. The objectives of this paper are to conceptualize information convergence, and to analyze its mechanisms from the view of ubiquitous library circumstances. Further, this paper suggests mobile Web 2.0 as a library supporting technology for information convergence and some kinds of mobile based library user services using mobile Web 2.0 applications.

This study presents an ultrasonic location awareness system for the ubiquitous computing with absolute position. The flight time of ultrasonic waves is determined by a period detecting technique which is able to extend the sensing range compared with traditional methods. For location awareness, ultrasonic waves are sent successively from each ultrasonic transmitter and synchronized by radio frequency (RF) signal, where the transmitting part is fixed and the receiving part is movable. To expand the recognizing range, cell matching technique and coded ultrasonic technique are introduced. The experimentation for various distances is accomplished to verify the used period detecting technique of U-SAT system. The positioning accuracy by using cell matching is also verified by finding the locations of settled points and the usability of coded ultrasonic technique is verified. As a result, the possibility of ultrasonic location awareness system for the ubiquitous computing can be discussed as a pseudo-satellite system with low cost, a high update rate, and relatively high precision, in the places where CPS is not available.

In the ubiquitous which is rapidly developing with ultra speed these days, constructing the u-Campus which is using the sensor-network as its base is keep developing. Also, any information related equipments like PC and mobile, computing is possible whenever and wherever you want and due to the development of the wireless network, the service environment is continually developing. In this article, I'd like to suggest the u-Campus which is very suitable to the user's environment which had used application of mobile. In u-Campus, various techniques are adopted and applied along with development of info-communication related technidques. Especially, the new type of campus which is constructed by adopting the ubiquitous computing net-work technique to the campus of university is the u-Campus. In this article, by suggesting u-Yuhan designing methods, more effective and advanced school activities of students to make possible.

In order to build up the ubiquitous computer environment, there are many researches on automatic identification, sensor networks, and home networks etc. EPCIS (EPC Information Services), which is proposed by EPCglobal, is a standard on the repository managing tag data that is needed to develop RFID application system. In this paper, the EPCIS repository is designed and implemented. It is able to search the object dependent upon general object recognition and environment information variation. And sensor data, which is also massive data and is changed with position, is integrated into RFID data in the system. By doing so, it is possible to do the convergence managements of object recognition with variations of USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network) environment.

본 논문에서 구현하고자 하는 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 응용에 필요한 위치 인식 시스템의 주 요소는 블루투스 프로토콜 스택(BlueZ)에서 제공하는 RSSI(Received Signal Strength Indicator) 값을 측정하는 블루투스 AP, 측정된 RSSI 값을 위치 인식 서버에 전달하기 위한 무선 AP 공유기 그리고, 받은 데이터로 위치 값을 측정하는 위치 인식 서버 및 Context Broker(고 수준의 상황 정보를 추론하는 서버 역할)로 이루어져있다. 전체적인 동작 시스템은 위치 값을 측정하고자 하는 이동 매제(마스터)를 중심으로 최대 여덟 개까지 네트워크가 가능한 블루투스 AP(슬레이브)장치로 구성된 피코넷(Piconet) 영역에서 삼각측량 필요에 적절한 세 개의 블루투스 AP를 RSSI값을 이용하여 분류 한 후 이동 매체의 위치를 측정한다. 그 결과로 나온 데이터는 피코넷 영역에서 가장 가까운 무선 AP 공유기를 거쳐서 위치 값을 측정하는 위치 인식 서버에 전달한 후, 그 결과 값으로 Context Broker에서 상황 정보를 추론해서 Community Manager에서 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 응용에 맞게 서비스를 구현한다. 또한, 위와 같은 시스템 내부 구조 된 데이터처리는 리눅스 운영체제 내에서 디바이스 드라이버와 사용자 프로그램으로 구현된다.

To support service based on context-aware in ubiquitous computing environment, there are required context managing, context reasoning and context modeling technologies. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical ontology-based context management model and design a context-aware middleware based on this model for supporting active application adaptability and reflecting users' requirements dynamically in contextual changes. It also provides efficient support for inferencing, interpreting, acquiring and discovering various contexts to build context-aware services and presents a resolution method for context conflict which is occurred in execution of service. The proposed middleware can support the development and operation of various context-aware services, which are required in the ubiquitous computing environment.

G-Sensor is being used for controlling motion of smart-phone and robot. G-Sensor can control motion to several direction, because it is composed of X, Y, and Z axis and also can be used on many mobile-phone by using Wi-Fi communication and RS-232C communication on the Bluetooth module. In this research, we suggest the application that realize and develop visual-vehicle-remote-control-system by using mobile-phone with G-Sensor so that drivers can more easily remote control and manage their vehicle with mobile-phone in real-time visual.

It is a fact that we are yet to recognize and sense the U-City even though the business of U-City construction has been started many years ago. One of the causes is that UCity was thoughtlessly developed in the industry-centered environment for a tangible achievement, despite of need on more systematic development and organized management. Fortunately, it is expected that the most part of the situation will be solved, since "laws on the construction of the ubiquitous city" for planning, construction and management has been promulgated on March, and U-City project will be systematically promoted by the related laws from now. Therefore, intention of this study is the sustainable development of the U-City by analyzing the previous process and problems of the U-City Construction project of local governments and reengineering U-City construction project process in accordance with new laws, using the BPR methodology.

u-Park means national parks with environmentally sound information networks and integrated ubiquitous services are available. u-Park is totally managed based on u-IT (Ubiquitous IT Technologies) which provides ubiquitous service through sophisticated resources of national park and establishments. It is necessary in changing the existing park management system into u-IT based u-Park management system that park managers should accept new technology, u-Park management system, and be able to utilize it. The purposes of this research is to analyze managers' acceptance behavior on ubiquitous computing technology. Technology acceptance model (TAM) was introduced to specifies the causal relationships among variables related to managers' technology acceptance behavior. The hypothesized model was tested by surveying 157 managers at 5 national parks in Korea. TAM accounted for 55.2% of the variance in intention to use. The most important finding is that perceived compatibleness was the most influential variable in determining intention to use. This means that u-Park management system should be compatible with manager's task and business style.

With the rapid growth of the up-to-date smartphone and wireless network technologies, huge and various types of smart applications using these technologies are actively developed recently. Especially, multiplex types of smart applications using smartphone are developed and diffused with the rapid development of the ubiquitous sensor network technology using various sensors and the mobile computing technology that enables us to get network services at any time in any places. In this paper, we design a smart application that can accurately diagnose and process the current state of the local environment, objects, and persons remotely based on the context information such as local ecology, circumstances, medical or healthcare records and realtime sound or motion pictures using up-to-date samrtphone technology on the USN based mobile computing environment.
