In this paper, the u-Service system that is based on location-aware technology is designed for a silver town. It provides services such as emergency call, intelligent elevator operation, and hands-free door access based on the location of the residents with personal device as called smart tag. It can also be applied to other service areas such as the location-aware u-Service for Hospital, high-rising complex building, APT, etc.

Large-scale urban developments with increasing population and expansion of industrial facilities have destroyed the ecosystem. Consequently, the importance of vertical farm as a form of urban agriculture is increasing. However, such problems of vertical farms as economy and lack of awareness of residents are being raised. Firstly, this study derived types of vertical farm that are applicable to residential spaces through an examination of vertical farm buildings, and then inferred assessment items for a questionnaire survey for the development of u-services. Secondly, based on the issues deduced from the survey, u-services needed in vertical farm buildings were derived to use them as the basic data when we plan for a ubiquitous vertical farm building in residential space in the future. As result, the following uservices of ubiquitous vertical farm were proposed: u-notification service about the condition of crops from the aspect of growth management based on ubiquitous technology, remote/automatic control u-services, harvest information u-service for harvest management, recipe information u-service, and indoor air quality monitoring u-service, indoor environment adjusting u-service, and farm environment control u-service. Considering that many new buildings in Korea are residential buildings and many high-rise buildings are being planned, studies on vertical farm buildings must be continued.

The evolution of u-Gov will play a big impact due to the development of information and communication technology. The evolution plays as a critical mean for the government innovation which pursues the value of new administration. In this paper, through an analysis of the difference between e-Gov and u-Gov, I suggested the composition of prototype system of u-public transit application services which can be applied to u-Gov. I also studied the method for removing unstable elements of e-Gov which may occur when the prototype is implemented and the implications of the its UT-based policy for responding to u-public transit.

This study ultimately aims to suggest directions for development of U-City Competitiveness Index through thorough analyses of U-City competitiveness concepts and previous research in U-City-related index. In an attempt to reach the aforementioned goals, the concept of U-City competitiveness is presented based on existing publications on informatization age, future city, and U-City. Next, insights on the development of U-City Competitiveness Index are provided via analysis of research on indices regarding U-City and future city. Finally, the process of developing UCity Competitiveness Index and cautionary comments for each developmental step has been provided. Based on the research results, U-City competitiveness refers to the ability to respond to demands of residents in a timely manner as well as to manage U-City, ICT, U-City infrastructure, and U-City services that maximizes the efficiency of urban space management. In order for proper assessment of these criteria, development of assessment tools, selection of indices, standardization, allocation of weight per index, and construction of assessment framework are required.

In this study, U-City to effectively manage information as a basis for studies of U-City Info characteristics were analyzed. U-City services are currently being discussed which is about 228. Short-term possibility of applying these services, the service's practicality and availability of services based on public services analyzed, 39 were selected. Next, the selected U-City to target services to analyze the flow of information and analysis based on the characteristics of U-City information was derived. U-City information derived from this study, the characteristics of real-time information, and service-specific mandatory and optional information, melting complex information, dynamic information, large amounts of data, user-customized information, and information security vulnerabilities, revealing personal information and privacy is. The results of this study, governments and municipalities to promote the construction of the U-City can be used effectively. To do so, considering the characteristics of U-City information, information management standards should be established.

The adoption of ubiquitous technologies is increasing for the realization of new effective u-City services. u-City is defined as a next-generation informatization city that can innovate a city's various functions, such as improving the welfare of the citizenry, ensuring safety based on systematic urban management, improving the quality of lives, and increasing convenience in city life, by merging cutting-edge information and telecommunication infrastructures and ubiquitous information services with urban space. There is therefore a need to recognize that a successful u-City implementation strategy involves developing the previous UIS into a ubiquitous technology-based UIS and integrating UIS's various urban informations with effective u-City services. In this paper, for UIS-based u-City implementation, the intelligent integration model of urban spatial information based on interoperability is proposed.

Developing various ubiquitous computing services (U-services) is being propelled throughout the industry. As U-services are being penetrated into our daily life, research on the factors influencing the acceptance of U-services is highly needed. In this line of study, we examined previous literatures about information technology acceptance and UTAUT model, and applied UTAUT model to U-service acceptance. To characterize the U-services into our research model, we newly introduced 'context based personalization' factor. Since the respondents could not directly experience the U-services yet, we adopted scenario-based questionnaire. For this, we deliberately developed U-service scenario. And then this U-service scenario is verified using capability-based assessment method. Using data collected from 251 respondents, this study found that 'context based personalization' factor was positively and significantly related to the acceptance of U-service as well as UTAUT model's 4 factors such as performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence and facilitating conditions.

This paper represent a method of U-Learning based on advanced e-Learning. Ubiquitous computing configuration and advanced Information technology. As we know well, the 21th century is called knowledge based informational society. Many scholar stress that the improved 21th century's educational paradigm be able to success based on advanced educational paradigm. Therefore, we discuss the material for e-Learning fields including with necessity, vision, law, quality authorization etc. Also, we discuss the relational technologies including with meta data, standardization, identification etc. Finally, we propose a method for constructing the U-Learning based on advanced e-Learning and Ubiquitous computing configuration.

In this paper we suggest dynamic access control model based on context satisfied with requirement of u-healthcare environment through researching the role based access control model. For the dynamic security domain management, we used a distributed object group framework and context information for dynamic access control used the constructed database. We defined decision rule by knowledge reduction in decision making table, and applied this rule in our model as a rough set theory. We showed the executed results of context based dynamic security service through u-healthcare application which is based on distributed object group framework. As a result, our dynamic access control model provides an appropriate security service according to security domain, more flexible access control in u-healthcare environment.
