Ubiquitous computing has had an effect to politics, economics, society, culture, education and so forth. For effective management of huge Ubiquitous networks environment, various computers which are connected to networks has to decide automatic optimum with intelligence. Currently in many areas, data mining has been used effectively to construct intelligent systems. We proposed a hybrid support vector machine for Ubiquitous data mining which realized intelligent Ubiquitous computing environment. Many data were collected by sensor networks in Ubiquitous computing environment. There are many noises in these data. The aim of proposed method was to eliminate noises from stream data according to sensor networks. In experiment, we verified the performance of our proposed method by simulation data for Ubiquitous sensor networks.

In this paper, we propose a hybrid MAC architecture for reducing energy consumption and maximizing network lifetime in wireless sensor networks. For this purpose, the hybrid MAC architecture is proposed for energy efficient by combining inter-cell TDMA and intra-cell CSMA scheme. Based on the ns-2 simulation result, we prove that the proposed architecture improves energy efficiency as compared with CSMA and TDMA.

The sensor response of a piezoelectric transducer embedded in a fluid loaded structure is modeled using a hybrid numerical approach. The structure is excited by an obliquely incident acoustic wave. Finite element modeling in the structure and fluid surrounding the transducer region, is used and a plane wave representation is exploited to match the displacement field at the mathematical boundary. On this boundary, continuity of field derivatives is enforced by using a penalty factor and to further achieve transparency at the mathematical boundary, drilling degrees of freedom (d.o.f.) are introduced to ensure continuity of all derivatives. Numerical results are presented for the sensor response and it is found that the sensor at that location is not only non-intrusive but also sensitive to the characteristic of the structure.

This paper considers the problem of time difference-of-arrival(TDOA) source localization when the TDOA and angle of arrival(AOA) measurements from an airborne emitter source are subject to ground-platform sensor position. The optimization of sensors' position is a challenging problem and a solution with good localization accuracy has yet to be found. This paper proposes an estimator that can achieve these purposes and provides optimized sensor position for good localization accuracy using the proposed estimator. The developed algorithm and sensor position are then examined under the special case of a single airborne source. The theoretical developments are supported by simulations.

We have fabricated flexible and stretchable pressure sensors using silver nanowires (AgNWs) and analyzed their electric responses. AgNWs are spray coated directly onto uncured polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) such that AgNWs penetrate into the uncured PDMS, enhancing the adhesion properties of AgNWs. However, the single-layered AgNW sensor exhibits unstable electric response and low pressure sensitivity. To tackle it, we have coated a conductive polymer, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) onto the AgNW layer. Such a hybrid bilayer sensor ensures a stable electric response because the over-coating layer of PEDOT:PSS effectively suppresses the protrusion of AgNWs from PDMS during release. To enhance the sensitivity further, we have also fabricated a stacked bilayer AgNW sensor. However, its electric response varies depending sensitively on the initial overlap pressure.

In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), blanket (area) coverage analysis is generally carried to find the minimum number of active sensor nodes required to cover a monitoring interest area with the desired fractional coverage-threshold. Normally, the coverage analysis is performed using the stochastic geometry as a tool. The major component of such coverage analysis is the assumed sensing model. Hence, the accuracy of such analysis depends on the underlying assumption of the sensing model: how well the assumed sensing model characterizes the real sensing phenomenon. In this paper, we review the coverage analysis for different deterministic and probabilistic sensing models like Boolean and Shadow-fading model; and extend the analysis for Exponential and hybrid Boolean-Exponential model. From the analytical performance comparison, we demonstrate the redundancy (in terms of number of sensors) that could be resulted due to the coverage analysis based on the detection capability mal-characterizing sensing models.

This paper proposes an in-network join strategy SBJ(Semi & Bloom Join), an efficient join strategy for sensor networks, that minimizes communication cost. SBJ is a hybrid join strategy that can reduce energy consumption by using a bloom filter to reduce the size of data that needs to be sent or received in sensor network. The key to reducing the communication cost in SBJ is to eliminate data not involved in the join result in the early stages of join processing. Through simulation, the paper shows that compared to other join strategies in sensor network, SBJ join strategy is more efficient in reducing the communication cost resulting in a significant reduction in battery consumption.

In this paper, a high-speed CMOS Image Sensor (CIS) based on a 10-bit two step Single Slope A/D Converter (SS-ADC) is proposed. The A/D converter is composed of both 5-bit coarse ADC and a 6-bit fine ADC, and the conversion speed is 10 times faster than that of the single-slope A/D convertor. In order to reduce the pixel noise, further, a Hybrid Correlated Double Sampling (H-CDS) is also discussed. The proposed A/D converter has been fabricated with 0.13um 1-poly 4-metal CIS process, and it has a QVGA ($320{\times}240$) resolution. The fabricated chip size is $5mm{\times}3mm$, and the power consumption is about 35 mW at 3.3 V supply voltage. The measured conversion speed is 10 us, and the frame rate is 220 frames/s.

The processing of phenolic composite reinforced with hybrid of PAN based/Rayon based carbon fabrics using FBG sensor and thermocouple was studied. Once the composite is cured, the reflection spectrum from the FBG sensor shifted the center wavelength with an increase in the temperature. Also, the change in the form of the reflection spectrum obtained during the cooling process of the cure cycle was caused by the thermal shrinkage. During the curing process, uniform distribution of the temperature profile was observed throughout the sample.

In RC beams strengthened with Epoxy-Bonded Fiber, debonding failure happens frequently. Moreover, through the life cycle, it is difficult to recognize clacks and deflections on the surface of concrete members strengthened with Epoxy- Bonded Fiber. For these reasons, we must always monitor the state of RC beams. The Optical FBG sensor is broadly accepted as a structural health monitoring device. The main objective of this paper is that it's possible to monitoring the debonding failure of R.C. beams strengthened with Epoxy-Bonded Fiber. For that, we fixed two Optical FBG sensors at the center of the beam and another two sensors in the end of Epoxy-Bonded Fiber, According to the comparison micro-strain between embeded sensor in concrete and that on the fiber surface, we can find the point which debonding failure occurs
