In this paper we will discuss a general idea about an information system which provides information a user really needs in user's authentication. We will discuss how RFID could be applied for this kind of system especially from the standpoint of using RFID as a way to collect information of personal belongings. Also we will discuss security issues of using RFID as a component of the proposed system because while RFID could provide usefulness, it could also be very dangerous for revealing private information without user's awareness.

This study was performed to develop a wireless system for measuring agricultural atmospheric factors using ubiquitous sensor network(USN). In the study, temperature, humidity and light intensity were selected and evaluated as major agricultural atmospheric factors. An USN system was designed and implemented by using Zigbex I and II (mote sensor nodes of MICA series) provided by Hanback Electronics, Korea. The system was tested in a greenhouse and an orchard. The experiment results showed that the suggested USN measuring system would be very effective on comprehensive measurement of the selected factors on the basis of time, day, spatial sequence with reasonable costs.

본 논문은 환경의 변화에 적응하여 지속적으로 서비스들의 협업을 지원하기 위한 통합 시스템으로 커뮤니티 관리 시스템을 제안한다. 이를 위해 커뮤니티라는 메타포를 사용하여 추상화된 레벨로 협업 모델을 정의하고 이를 런타임에 해석하여 물리적 환경의 실질적인 서비스들간의 실행 모델로 전환한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 시스템은 서비스들의 협업과 사용자의 인터랙션을 관리하는 커뮤니티 매니저(CM)와 서비스들의 협업모델을 실행 환경으로 매핑시키는 커뮤니티 프레임워크(CF) 그리고 CM 과 CF 에게 통합된 컨텍스트를 제공해 주는 시츄에이션 매니저(SM)로 구성되어 있다. 이 시스템에서 추상화된 협업 모델은 런타임에 물리적 공간으로 매핑되므로, 동적으로 실행 환경과 사용자의 특성을 인식하고 그에 맞는 협업 목표와 협업 대상을 변경시켜 실행 환경에 맞게 재구성 되는 것이 가능하다. 따라서 제안된 시스템을 통해 특정 환경에 고유하게 구축되던 시스템의 개발 비용에 대한 부담을 절감시키는 효과를 가져올 것으로 기대된다.

The ubiquitous sensor network technique is widely applied to variety of information fields such as home automations, logistics, traffic controls, public administrations, health and environment monitoring and etc. It is particularly useful in the areas where energy consumption is minimal and where continuous monitoring of the surrounding environments, which generates streams of data, are required. In this study, we have designed and implemented a living environment automatic control system which collects the streams of temperature, humidity, light and noise data of a simulated house setting in real-time fashion, then controls the home environment based on the collected data according to the users favorites. In order to differentiate the proposed system from the currently existing similar system, we have demonstrated not only the feasibility of collecting data using sensor network in the controlled environment but also the ability to control the various household equipments through wireless communications.

Recently many researches are investigating for ubiquitous computing and network. In the real world many sensor devices must be equipped to provide many services for users. To make computing environment easy and more user friendly, middleware system not only hides all complexities (network, system, services, etc), but also needs to have efficient context inference scheme and system reconfiguration capability. In this paper we suggest context-aware middleware design for sensor network which provides efficient computing environment for end-users. We also present XML based implementation of our system.

In ubiquitous computing, invisible devices and software are connected to one another to provide convenient services to users [1][2]. Users hope to obtain a personalized service which is composed of customized devices among sharable devices in a ubiquitous smart space (which is called USS in this paper). However, the situations of each user are different and user preferences also are various. Although users request the same service in the same USS, the most suitable devices for composing the service are different for each user. For these user requirements, this paper proposes a device recommender system which infers and recommends customized devices for composing a user required service. The objective of this paper is the development of the systems for recommending devices through context-aware inference in peer-to-peer environments. For this goal, this paper considers the context and user preference. Also I implement a prototype system and test performance on the real ubiquitous mobile object (UMO).

As information technology has been rapidly developed, it is expected that the needs of ubiquitous for information on construction, maintenance and operational processes in railway field will arise. U-Rail system, for which information ubiquitous in railway field, can be defined as the human centered future railway system that enables to perform real-time state indication and auto information generation and its transmission by interchanging information organically among railway suppliers, users, and operator. In this paper, we analyzed main components of U-Rail system and its service items from the view of information technology and communication network technology, with focusing on railway field.

In this paper, we propose a level of contexts such as low level and high level contexts, and its criteria of categorization are the existence of interaction and composite process done by the inference mechanism. When there is no matching high level service for the associated high level context, this context is described as meaningless. If the services cannot be provided with the entities by the system, this situational information is of little consequence. To provide services with the entities, we propose "community computing" architectural concept which provide the high level service to a group of agents in a community, and can be managed by the service scenario

This paper proposes a FRTU-based intelligent fault distance determination strategy in which each FRTU is able to avoid multiple estimations and reduce the level of estimation error by utilizing heuristic rules driven by voltage and current information collected by 1:1 communication with other FRTUs from the same zone in a ubiquitous-based distribution system. In the proposed method, each FRTU, at first, determines a fault zone and a fault path on the faulted zone based on the proposed heuristic rules which use its current data and the voltage data of its neighboring FRTUs as input data. Next, it determines the fault distance from its position based on the fault current estimated from the current data of the neighboring FRTUs. Finally, in order to prove the effectiveness of the proposed method, the diverse fault cases are simulated in several positions of the typical distribution system using the EMTP.
