This paper described an emotional communication service based on context awareness. Especially it provides with a natural as-like a person communication in the interactive object service between machine and person. The machine should behave as naturally like human. For these things the service object has to provide the function which analyzing and storing users' behavior and handling it. This paper contains the way how to analyze and handle users' pattern by using context awareness. Furthermore, we have studied the method which makes users feel like talking with machine by re-writing messages through 'purpose-extraction algorithm' and 'message re-writing algorithm', which allow service become M2P on networks environment. Moreover we developed 'message recommending algorithm' which recommend several messages by analyzing users' past messages. This emotional communication technology can provide more efficient and user-friendly service by providing personified service on network. Furthermore we can expect this messenger system provided from emotional communication service based on context awareness can be applied a plenty of application services.

This paper presents implementation of localization system using UWB (Ultra-Wide Band) sensors and its experimental results along with development of context-aware services. In order for precise measurement of position, we experimented various conditions of pitch angles, yaw angles, number of sensors, height of tags along with measuring errors at each installation. As an application examples of the location tracking system, we developed an intelligent health training management system based on context-aware technology. The system provides appropriate training schedule to a trainee by recognizing position of the trainee and current status of gymnastic equipments and note the usage of the equipment through a personal digital assistant (PDA). Error compensation on position data and moving direction of the trainee was necessary for context-aware service. Hence, we proposed an error compensation algorithm using velocity of the trainee. Experimental results showed that proposed algorithm had made error data reduce by 30% comparing with the data without applying the algorithm.

As technologies have been developing, our lives are getting easier. Today we are surrounded by the new technologies such as AI and IoT. Moreover, the word, "smart" is a very broad one because we are trying to change our daily environment into smart one by using those technologies. For example, the traditional workplaces have changed into smart offices. Since the 3rd industrial revolution, we have used the touch interface to operate the machines. In the 4th industrial revolution, however, we are trying adding the speech recognition module to the machines to operate them by giving voice commands. Today many of the things are communicated with human by voice commands. Many of them are called AI things and they do tasks which users request and do tasks more than what users request. In the 4th industrial revolution, we use smartphones all the time every day from the morning to the night. For this reason, the privacy using phone is not guaranteed sometimes. For example, the caller's voice can be heard through the phone speaker when accepting a call. So, it is needed to protect privacy on smartphone and it should work automatically according to the user context. In this aspect, this paper proposes a method to adjust the voice volume for call to protect privacy on smartphone according to the user context.

The technology of Semantic Web realizes the base technology for context-awareness that creates new services by dynamically and flexibly combining various resources (people, concepts, etc). According to the realization of ubiquitous computing technology, many researchers are currently working for the embodiment of web service. However, most studies of them bring about the only predefined results those are limited to the initial description by service designer. In this paper, we propose a new service supporting model to provide an automatic method for plan related tasks which achieve goal state from initial state. The inputs on an planner are intial and goal descriptions which are mapped to the current situation and to the user request respectively. The idea of the method is to infer context from world model by DL-based ontology reasoning using OWL domain ontology. The context guide services to be loaded into planner. Then, the planner searches and plans at least one service to satisfy the goal state from initial state. This is STRIPS-style backward planner, and combine OWL-S services based on AI planning theory that enabling reduced search scope of huge web-service space. Also, when feasible service do not find using pattern matching, we give user alternative services through DL-based semantic searching. The experimental result demonstrates a new possibility for realizing dynamic service modeler, compared to OWLS-XPlan, which has been known as an effective application for service composition.

가상현실 시스템에서의 가장 기본적인 상호작용은 사용자가 원하는 위치와 방향으로 시야를 이동하는 네비게이션이다. 기존의 관련 연구들은 가상환경 네비게이션의 고전적인 문제인 'lost-in-cyberspace'에 대한 명확한 해결책을 제시하지 못하고 있다. 또한, 직관적이고 사용방법이 쉬운 상호작용에 대한 연구가 충분히 이루어지지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 증강현실 기반의 감각형 오브젝트를 이용한 네비게이션 인터페이스 시스템과, 사용자의 컨텍스트를 활용한 네비게이션 방법을 제안한다. 테이블의 표면에는 프로젝터를 이용한 후면 영사를 통해 가상환경의 지도와 사용자를 위한 네비게이션 정보가 보여진다. 사용자는 테이블 공간에서 카메라를 이용해 추적되는 감각형 오브젝트를 조작함으로써 가상환경을 네비게이션 할 수 있다. 또한, 사용자의 관심 지역 및 가상공간의 중요 지역 등의 컨텍스트는 사용자의 간단한 오브젝트 조작 정보와 결합되어 이동 경로 생성에 이용된다. 제안된 시스템은 본 연구실에서 제작된 Responsive Multimedia System (RMS) 의 인터페이스 시스템으로 연동되어 실험을 수행하였다. 제안된 시스템 및 네비게이션 기법은 사용자에게 전체 가상환경에 대한 인지력을 향상시키고, 직관적인 인터페이스를 제공하며, 최소한의 조작으로 만족스러운 네비게이션을 제공한다.

In this paper, we describe CAMAR Companoin, a context-aware mobile AR system that provides a user-adaptive assistance with an augmented picture according to the user's context in smart space. It recognizes physical objects and tracks the movement of those objects with a camera embodied to a mobile device. CAMAR Companion observes a mobile user's context, which is sensed by various kinds of sensors in environments, and infers user preference for the content in the situation. It recommends multimedia content relevant to the user's context. It overlays selected content over associated physical objects and enables the user to experience the content in a user-centric manner. Furthermore, we have developed the prototype to illustrate how our system could be used for a mobile user's well-being care applications in smart home environments. In this application, we found that our system could perceive a user preference even though a user's context is changed dynamically, and then adapt the multimedia content with respect to the user's context effectively. As such, the proposed user-adaptive system has the potential to play an important role in developing customized user interfaces in mobile devices.

The intelligent life-log system proposed in this paper is intended to identify and record a myriad of everyday life information as to the occurrence of various events based on when, where, with whom, what and how, that is, a wide variety of contextual information involving person, scene, ages, emotion, relation, state, location, moving route, etc. with a unique tag on each piece of such information and to allow users to get a quick and easy access to such information. Context awareness generates and classifies information on a tag unit basis using the auto-tagging technology and biometrics recognition technology and builds a situation information database. In this paper, we developed an active modeling method and an application that recognizes expressionless and smile expressions using lip lines to automatically record emotion information.

In this paper, we describes a design of Wireless Mesh Network based middleware that applied into USN(Ubiquitous Sensor Networks). WMN based middleware is a technique which links data between widely distributed sensor devices and WMN for context-awareness. The use of WMN base middleware in this paper makes possible communication on insufficiently network constructed area by use of WMN. WMN based middleware also anaylze events comprehensively that originated from specific sensor device. Based on the result from analyzed data with predetermined value WMN based middleware will given an order to designated actuator devices. Middleware operate each function of sensor network management and application service separately.
