In this paper, we proposed a Proactive Application Service Engine (PASE) supporting tailor-made distributed application services based on the Distributed Object Group Framework (DOGF) efficiently managing distributed objects, in the viewpoint of distributed application, composed application on network. The PASE consists of 3 layers which are the physical layer, the middleware layer, and the application layer. With the supporting services of the PASE, the grouping service manages the data gathered from H/W devices and the object's properties for application by user's request as a group. And the security service manages the access of gathered data and the object according to user's right. The data filtering service executes the filtering function to provide application with gathered data. The statistics service analysis past data. The diagnostic service diagnoses a present condition by using the gathered data. And the prediction service predicts a future's status based on the statistics service and the diagnostic service. For verifying the executability of the PASE's services, we applied to a greenhouse automatic control application in ubiquitous agriculture field.

The requesting a consultation of the farm manager is about the diagnosis and prevention of the breeding and extermination for diseases and insects in greenhouse, the managing problem for diseases and insects turn up a main issue. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a PDA based greenhouse, diseases and insects management system for mobile(GDIMS) uses as keeping up with ubiquitous time, which makes prediction and management for diseases and insects more efficiently checked at any time and anywhere you want to, and go well with the motto of ubiquitous. This system is using the environmental data from the greenhouse attached sensors provide the accurate diagnosis and recipes, which supports to product clean crops. There are no need to visit the greenhouse because our system is based on mobile devices that obtain the information in the greenhouse, which makes management in efficient with little number of people. This wort builds simply virtual greenhouse model that assembles system component of environmental sensor for performance analysis and offers a PDA view of the greenhouse status.

In order to combat the security threats that sensor networks are exposed to, a cryptography protocol is implemented at sensor nodes for point-to-point encryption between nodes. Given that nodes have limited resources, symmetric cryptography that is proven to be efficient for low power devices is implemented. Data protection is integrated into a sensor's packet by the means of symmetric encryption with the Dragon stream cipher and incorporating the newly designed Dragon-MAC Message Authentication Code. The proposed algorithm was designed to employ some of the data already computed by the underlying Dragon stream cipher for the purpose of minimizing the computational cost of the operations required by the MAC algorithm. In view that Dragon is a word based stream cipher with a fast key stream generation, it is very suitable for a constrained environment. Our protocol regarded the entity authentication and message authentication through the implementation of authenticated encryption scheme in wireless sensor nodes.

In the ubiquitous computing age which uses a high quantity network, mobile devices such as wearable and hand-held ones with a small tamers and a wireless communication module will be widely used in near future. Thus, a lot of researches about an augmented game on mobile devices have been attempted recently. The existing augmented games used a traditional 'backpack' system and a pattern marker. The 'backpack' system is expensive, cumbersome and inconvenient to use, and because of the pattern marker, it is only possible to play the game in the previously installed palace. In this paper, we propose an augmented game called Flying Cake using a face region to create the virtual object(character) without the pattern marker, which manually indicates an overlapped location of the virtual object in the real world, on a small and mobile PDA instead of the cumbersome hardware. Flying Cake is an augmented shooting game. This game supplies us with two types: 1) a single player which attacks a virtual character on images captured by a camera in an outdoor physical area, 2) dual players which attack the virtual character on images which we received through a wireless LAN. We overlap the virtual character on the face region using a face detection technique, and users play Flying Cake though attacking the virtual character. Flying Cake supplies new pleasure to flayers with a new game paradigm through an interaction between the user in the physical world captured by the PDA camera and the virtual character in a virtual world using the face detection.

The adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) based automatic control system framework was proposed for integrated environment management of ubiquitous plant factory which can collect information of crop cultivation environment and monitor it in real-time by using various environment sensors. Installed wireless sensor nodes, based on the sensor network, collect the growing condition's information such as temperature, humidity, $CO_2$, and the control system is to monitor the control devices by using ANFIS. The proposed automatic control system provides that users can control all equipments installed on the plant factory directly or remotely and the equipments can be controlled automatically when the measured values such as temperature, humidity, $CO_2$, and illuminance deviated from the decent criteria. In addition, the better quality of the agricultural products can be gained through the proposed automatic control system for plant factory.

In this study, we examined the sense of tradition and cultural traditions which make up Japanese ubiquitous society. These include the traditional elements which affect the lives of contemporary Japanese people. In this research we looked for various media (mobile phones, blog, characters goods, cinema) which appeared in the traditional elements. The results of the study are as follows: The traditional elements which affect contemporary Japanese lives include modern devices such as use of anonymous "blogging", mobile phones "youth culture"(especially by males), and "cute" character vocabulary use (especially by females), while traditional values(yakuza, sumo, human relationships) are represented in Japanese cinema. Through this study, we have found the points where traditional Japanese culture and cultural sense have been reinterpreted and affected both directly and indirectly through modern media. This study contributes to cultural research by delineating the various stimuli to consider for successful content service adoption in a global setting, which can account for differential impacts across regions. The results not only help develop a sophisticated understanding of customer behavior theories for researchers, but they also offer useful knowledge to those involved in promoting culture content to potential purchasers.

In the ubiquitous computing environments, ICT industries of current society are developed in enormous growth. Medicine or patients with mobile devices can access at any time, any place. The medical procedures at the patient bedside are out of the scope of current systems, which means that patient record and image data access during the medical visit or the execution, recording and confirmation of the medicine prescriptions, still do not enjoy computerized support. Today, the exchange of medical images and clinical information is well defined by DICOM and HL7 standards. The DICOM independent terminal equipment image access system was developed in which a DICOM Engine acts as the gateway between a PACS DB and user's terminal. Implementation system is compatible with most currently available Integration system models. This paper presents a software technology where the medical and nursing staff will be equipped with any device connected by wire and wireless to a central server that provides access to the electronic patient records and that will actively inform about tasks pending distribution. The prototype described in this article implements a medical images and structured reports server that makes the search and recovery of data stored in the DICOM standard possible.
