Recently, new intelligent service frameworks, such as ubiquitous computing are proposed. So, the necessity of adaptive agent system has been increased. In this paper, we propose an intelligent service agent to help that ubiquitous computing system offer user suitable service in ubiquitous computing environment. In order to offer user suitable uT-service, an intelligent service agent mediates the gap between the context information in uT-service system, and user preference is reflected in it. Therefore, we focus on following three components; the first is suitable multi agent framework-agent communication analysis and applicable method of inference engine, the second is uT-ontologies to describe various context information-context information sharing between agents and context information understanding between agents, the third is learning method of user profile to apply in uT-service system. This approach enables us to build adaptive uT-service system to offer suitable service according to user preference.

This study is to research quintessence of information service in the libraries by interpreting 'Information' as it is ubiquitous. For the purpose, it investigates and analyzes information behaviors of the libraries in information-cultural history. The meaning of 'ubiquitous' is understood as a practice that everything we need should be inherent in our lives for its usefulness and effectiveness. Information is intrinsic in our lives and the libraries, information management systems, have been evolved by extending the intrinsic value of information, 'ubiquity'. Human being's history results from information behaviors and the meaning of the libraries consists of production, accumulation, organization and distribution of the libraries. It should be recognized that the ultimate purpose of the library services is for their users. Consequently information systems and technological networks in the libraries should be focused on applications and inherence for the purpose. Model studies of the libraries should be developed to user-centered information services that substantialize the interpretation of information, as it is ubiquitous. This study is a trial for defining the quintessence of the libraries. Furthermore, it provides foundation of understanding what the libraries are.

In the ubiquitous environment, it is scattered all over our neighboring in many smart objects. These smart objects constantly produce the information and the amount of the generated information is massive. As the internet search engine came out to help us to find the useful data from the sea of the information connected to the internet, the sensor data stream processing middleware is appearing to make us to develop the ubiquitous service easily by extracting the meaningful information from the massive sensor data and delivering the extracted information to the application which makes our life convenient. We have to inform the information relating to the provided service to a middleware so that the ubiquitous service can be provided by using sensor data stream processing middleware. In this paper, we classify the information which is needed to express the ubiquitous service which uses sensor data for the service providing. And we propose a distinct markup language called Context-driven Service Markup Language (CSML) to effectively describe this information. We can easily express the various ubiquitous services which have to be provided in the various situations using proposed CSML.

Context-Awareness is a important technology to support optimized services automatically by recognizing various context informations in ubiquitous environments. Previous middlewares which supports ubiquitous environments used a centralized storage and DBMS to store and manage context informations and service contents. Centralized management of context informations and service contents sometimes hinders the autonomy of moving node and interoperability between difference middlewares. In this paper, we design the systems which stores context informations in moving node by distributed form and shares service contents between middlewares in distributed ubiquitous environments. And it provides Context-Aware scripts to supports the definition of context informations reasoning and execution of services. It verifies the usefulness of the designed systems by applying the scenario of music playing service based on context awareness

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.

Recently, RFID technology play a key role to implement ubiquitous sensor network(USN). In this paper, we introduce trends of RFID technology, standardization, and then its applications. The purpose of this work is to suggest prosperous applications of RFID, which is applicable on marine information system, such as ship inventory management, management of container and its contents, sensing of environments within cargo hold, management of fishery boats. In case that RFID technology is utilized on marine information systems, it makes safety at sea and marine environments protection.

Recently, as the dissemination of the Internet and development of computer network technology, Research is actively underway for realization of the next-generation computing paradigm called Ubiquitous Computing. It will not be constrained by Space-time and It will be a cornerstone of human-oriented services. Such ubiquitous computing as a core technology for USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network) is presented. In this paper, the sensor information into a standardized form to describe the information describing standards and USN sensor applications for the service standard for directory services protocols were investigated.

유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅은 향후 USN(Ubiquitous Sensor Network) 환경에서 구현될 것으로 예상되며, 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅에서 RFID(Radio Frequency Identification)기술 기반의 응용 서비스들이 가장 먼저 활성화될 분야로 전망된다. RFID 분야에서의 보안은 RFID의 태그로 인한 프라이버시 침해가 가장 큰 문제점으로 인식되고 있으며, 기술적, 법적·제도적으로 개인의 프라이버시를 보장하기 위한 노력들이 진행 중이다. USN에서의 보안은 센서노드의 자원의 제약으로 인해 기존의 전통적인 보안과는 다른 관점에서의 접근이 필요하며, 키분배 및 관리, 안전한 라우팅 방법론, 센서네트워크에 대한 공격에 대한 안전한 네트워크 구축 등이 이슈들이다. 본 논문에서는 RFID와 USN의 보안 연구 대상에 대해서 살펴보고 이들에 대한 향후 연구 방향을 소개한다.
