Recently, many enterprises are introducing EAI(Enterprise Application Integration) technologies for integrating heterogeneous enterprise information systems. Among EAI levels, data-level integration is relatively straightforward and most popular. However, current commercial solutions have complex functionalities and are expensive for implementing the data integration tasks. Also, they have their own proprietary architectures and have a restricted interoperability. Proposed in this paper is the development of data integration middleware for facilitating data exchanges between the heterogeneous information systems. The main feature of this middleware is a explicit mapping of meta data about the relationships between source and target data. Based on this mapping, users who do not have expertise in information technology at the small & medium enterprise can easily handle data exchange tasks between information systems.

Recently MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) has started a new standardization activity called MPEG Multimedia Middleware (M3W). The M3W supports multimedia applications Independent of hardware and software such as operating systems so that the portability and interoperability of multimedia applications are greatly improved. In doing so, the M3W adopts the concept of a service-based middleware. The M3W standardizes a set of multimedia Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and their implementations can be pro vided by third parties In the form of services. In this paper, we introduce the usage of XML metadata in describing the standard multimedia APIs and third party's services and also we explain the role of the XML Schema within the M3W in providing transparent access from application to the M3W services.

IPCS(Inter Process Communication Service) is a real-time communication middleware designed for warship combat battle systems based on publisher-subscriber communication model. Because IPCS was originally designed to operated under 100 Mbps network environment, increasing network speed into Gigabit environment does not linearly increase the throughput of IPCS. To solve this problem, we anaylized IPCS structure and optimized IPCS into Gigabit-Ethernet environment. We found parameters to improve IPCS based on UDP and Token-ring structure. By improving, IPCS has reliability and higher throughput than TCP although IPCS is based on UDP.

We design a filtering management scheme with synchronization function under a realtime RFID middleware system for larger-scale data processing. The application interface(AI) is to support a various access protocol, HTTP, XML, JMS, and SOAP for the RFID applications. Generally, the synchronization problem is occurred in multiple accessing of clients for single filtering file. In this paper, we implement a filtering management scheme supporting the synchronization using the filter management process, and then demonstrate the RFID middleware filtering scheme.

This paper, proposes concept of personal robot middleware core also called streaming layer. Based on openness and portability, the streaming layer is proposed in order to meet requirements of different kinds of applications. The streaming layer architecture provides effective management of data flows and allows integration of different systems with ease regardless software of hardware platform. With extensibility support additional features can be build in without affect to performance. Therefore, heterogeneous network support, real-time communications, embedded boards support can be easily achieved. In order to achieve high performance together with portability into different platforms, the most functions has to be implemented in C language, while critical parts, such as scheduling, priority assignment has to be made using native functions of tested platforms.

This paper describes an Security Manager that integrally manages the Information Service related to RFID middleware, Object Name Service, and Web Service for upper level applications. In order to provide the access control of distributed RFID objects, Single-Sign-On has been implemented by extending existing UCON (Usage Control) model and SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) assertions. The security technology of distributed RFID systems can be included in middleware and protect RFID information. In the future, it can be also applied to ubiquitous sensor networks.

This paper characterizes the performance for a remote path tracking control of the mobile robot in IP network viamiddleware. The middleware is used to alleviate the effect of the delay time on a mobile robot path tracking in Network-Based Control environment. The middleware also can be implemented in a modular structure. Thus, a controller upgrade or modification for other types of network protocols or different control objectives can be achieved easily. A case study on a mobile robot path-tracking with IP network delays is described. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is verified by experimental results.

Middleware offers function that user application program can transmit data independently of network device. Connection management about network connection of module is important for normal service of module base personal robot. Unpredictable network disconnection is influenced to whole robot performance in module base personal robot. For this, Middleware must be offer two important function. The first is function of error detection and reporting about abnormal network disconnection. Therefore, middleware need method for network error detection and module management to consider special quality that each network device has. The second is the function recovering that makes the regular service possible. When the module closed from connection reconnects, as this service reports connection state of the corresponding module, the personal robot resumes the existing service. In this paper proposed method of network connection management for to support fault tolerant about network error of network module based personal robot.

Context-Awareness system provides an appropriate service to user by recognizing situation from surrounding environment. There are many successful studies on this framework, but still has some limitations. In this paper, we are describing a context-awareness middleware that can enhance the limitation of the previous approaches. We first defined a new concept of context-awareness environment as a social intelligence. This concept implies that intelligent objects can make relationships, can aware of situation from surrounding environment, and can collaborate to accomplish a given task. The significance of the study is as follows. First, the system is capable of multi context-awareness since it is designed with a structure that supports multiple lines of reasoning. Second, the system is capable of context planning by adapting AI planning mechanism. Third, the system is capable of making the intelligent objects as a group for collaboration, and provides adaptive service to user. We have developed a prototype of the system and tested with a virtual scenario.

The provision of personalized user interfaces for mobile devices is expected to be used for different devices with a wide variety of capabilities and interaction modalities. In this paper, we implemented a multimodal context-aware middleware incorporating XML-based languages such as XHTML, VoiceXML. SCXML uses parallel states to invoke both XHTML and VoiceXML contents as well as to gather composite multimodal inputs or synchronize inter-modalities through man-machine I/Os. We developed home networking service named "HomeN" based on our middleware framework. It demonstrates that users could maintain multimodal scenarios in a clear, concise and consistent manner under various user's interactions.
