Download or read book Context Aware Pervasive Systems written by Seng Loke and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2006-12-07 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of aware systems is among the most exciting trends in computing today, fueled by recent developments in pervasive computing, including new computers worn by users, embedded devices, smart appliances, sensors, and varieties of wireless networking technology. Context-Aware Pervasive Systems: The Architecture of a New Breed of Applications introduces a diverse set of application areas and provides blueprints for building context-aware behavior into applications. Reviewing the anatomy of context-aware pervasive applications, this resource covers abstract architecture. It examines mobile services, appliances, smart devices, software agents, electronic communication, sensor networks, security frameworks, and intelligent software agents. The book also discusses the use of context awareness for communication among people, devices, and software agents and how sensors can be aware of their own situations. Exploring the use of physical context for controlling and enhancing security in pervasive computing environments, this guide addresses mirror worlds and elucidates design perspectives based on a declarative programming language paradigm. This carefully paced volume presents a timely and relevant introduction to the emergence of context-aware systems and brings together architectures and principles of context-aware computing in one source.
Download or read book Context Aware Pervasive Systems and Applications written by Parikshit N. Mahalle and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-09-19 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook explores the current challenges in and future prospects of context-aware pervasive systems and applications. The phenomenal advances in broadband technology and ubiquitous access to the Internet have transformed Internet computing into the Internet of Things (IoT), which is now evolving toward the Internet of Everything. Modern scientific, engineering, and business applications are increasingly dependent on machine-to-machine communication, wherein there is less human intervention. In turn, this creates a need for context-aware pervasive systems and applications in which RFID, sensors, and smartphones play a key role. The book provides an essential overview of context, context management, and how to perform context management in various use cases. In addition, it addresses context-aware computing and personalization, various architectures for context-aware systems, and security issues. The content is explained using straightforward language and easy-to-follow examples, case studies, technical descriptions, procedures, algorithms, and protocols for context-aware systems.

Download or read book Design and Implementation of Context Aware Information Push Systems written by Thomas Beer and published by Sudwestdeutscher Verlag Fur Hochschulschriften AG. This book was released on 2009-10 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern communication systems enable information access at any time and any location. Significant challenges arising from this are how to deal with information overload and information retrieval effort. Novel information systems are required to tackle these challenges. Context-aware Information Push Systems (CAIPS) may provide a possible solution. These systems automatically supply the users with exactly that information they are currently interested in by incorporating their current situation (context). The author introduces a conceptual framework facilitating the rapid design and implementation of such a system. The framework specifies the fundamental functional components and provides a novel reactive rule language framework (CAITL). CAITL enables the usage of standard query, subscription, and action languages to declaratively define WHAT should be sent to WHOM and WHEN. The applicability of the conceptual framework is demonstrated by implementing CAIPS-IM - a context-aware information push system implemented as integrated part of a mobile tourist information system in Innsbruck/Austria.

Download or read book Mobile Information Retrieval written by Fabio Crestani and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-19 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a helpful starting point in the scattered, rich, and complex body of literature on Mobile Information Retrieval (Mobile IR), reviewing more than 200 papers in nine chapters. Highlighting the most interesting and influential contributions that have appeared in recent years, it particularly focuses on both user interaction and techniques for the perception and use of context, which, taken together, shape much of today’s research on Mobile IR. The book starts by addressing the differences between IR and Mobile IR, while also reviewing the foundations of Mobile IR research. It then examines the different kinds of documents, users, and information needs that can be found in Mobile IR, and which set it apart from standard IR. Next, it discusses the two important issues of user interfaces and context-awareness. In closing, it covers issues related to the evaluation of Mobile IR applications. Overall, the book offers a valuable tool, helping new and veteran researchers alike to navigate this exciting and highly dynamic area of research.
Download or read book Constructing Ambient Intelligence written by Max Mühlhäuser and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-08-17 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A foreword for the present workshop proceedings cannot be provided without first looking at the larger context of the AMI conference in which the workshops were organized. The AMI 2007 conference has roots in preceding events, but in many respects, AMI can be called a novel conference format and hence a premiere. Among the several aims that inspired and shaped this new conference format, the following two are particularly worth considering: (1) to provide a forum for the ambient intel- gence flavor of research on the Post-PC era of computer science, complementing the ubiquitous computing and pervasive computing flavors emphasized by alrea- existing conferences; (2) to offer an event that attracts contributions from all over the globe yet emphasizes European strengths – with particular reference to the Infor- tion Society Technologies (IST) branch of the EU research framework programs (FPs), which carry the same label as the conference. The workshop organization chairs reflected these unique characteristics of the new AMI conference series in the call for workshop proposals using two corresponding measures: (1) by particularly soliciting workshops on in-depth topics corresponding to the above-mentioned ambient intelligence flavor of Post-PC research; (2) by offering two different workshop threads: one ‘usual’ thread for advanced topics (called “SW workshops”) and one thread for workshops related to concrete EU FP6 and FP7 p- jects (called “EU workshops”).

Download or read book Decentralized Reasoning in Ambient Intelligence written by José Viterbo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-05-24 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ambient Intelligence (AmI) systems, reasoning is fundamental for triggering actions or adaptations according to specific situations that may be meaningful and relevant to some applications. However, such reasoning operations may need to evaluate context data collected from distributed sources and stored in different devices, as usually not all context data is readily available to the reasoners within the system. Decentralized Reasoning in Ambient Intelligence proposes a decentralized reasoning approach for performing rule-based reasoning about context data targeting AmI systems. For this purpose, the authors define a context model assuming context data distributed over two sides: the user side, represented by the users and their mobile devices, and the ambient side, represented by the fixed computational infrastructure and ambient services. They formalize the cooperative reasoning operation — in which two entities cooperate to perform decentralized rule-based reasoning — and define a complete process to perform this operation.
