Ubiquitous computing environment requires strong security and privacy. Access control is one of security areas. Access control on Ubiquitous computing is different from it on traditional information systems so that traditional access control models are not suitable for Ubiquitous comput-ing environment. This research defines Ubiquitous computing environment as an access control point of view, and shows requirements to consid-er for developing access control model for Ubiquitous computing environment. It also brings up three implementing types of access control on Ubiquitous computing environment.

In this paper, we study to two research direction about information security in ubiquitous computing environment. First, researches on context-aware access control using user's context or environment conditions based on role-based control. Second, researches on model for access control about context information in ubiquitous computing utilizing role base access control model. Two research directions are the one of the most important point technology in that embody ubiquitous environment in the actual world.

We study on the implementation of reconfigurable position control system which is based on Open Control Platform(OCP) for Unmanned Expedition Vehicles(UEV) in ubiquitous environment. The control system uses hierarchical control structure and OCP structure which contains three layers such as core OCP, reconfigurable control API(Application Programmer Interface), generic hybrid control API. The goal of our research is to implement an UEV control system using advanced software technology. As a specific control problem, we study a transition management problem between PID control and neural network control depending on fault or parameter change of the plant, i.e., UEV. The concept of the OCP-based software-enabled control can provide synergy effect by the integration of software component, middleware, network communication, and control, and thus can be applied to various systems in ubiquitous environment.

In this paper, we describe ubiquitous environments and the trend of convergence that is an evolution path of current telecommunication, and show the concept of broadband convergence network, service feature and evolution path. In order to converge wire and wireless communication, telecommunication and broadcasting, voice and data efficiently, broadband convergence network divides a network into service layer, control layer, transport layer, ubiquitous access and terminal layer. Broadband convergence network will be a network that can provide and control broadband multimedia services with QoS and securityof different and customized level. Then we depict characteristics and types of broadband multimedia service, and describe the characteristic of broadband convergence network. Finally, we show ubiquitous network based on the broadband convergence network to provide ubiquitous service which is a future telecommunication service. We also describe requirements of ubiquitous network such as an intelligent and context based platform, convergence terminals, ubiquitous computing devices, etc., and give various emerging technologies and those applications.

The initial research of Task Computing in the ubiquitous computing (UbiComp) environment revealed the need for access control of services. Context-awareness of service requests in ubiquitous computing necessitates a well-designed model to enable effective and adaptive invocation. However, nowadays little work is being undertaken on service access control under the UbiComp environment, which makes the exposed service suffer from the problem of ill-use. One of the research focuses is how to handle the access to the resources over the network. Policy-Based Access Control is an access control method. It adopts a security policy to evaluate requests for resources but has a light-weight combination of the resources. Motivated by the problem above, we propose a universal model and an algorithm to enhance service access control in UbiComp. We detail the architecture of the model and present the access control implementation.

Recently, there are lots of concerning on ubiquitous environment of robots and URC (Ubiquitous Robotic Companion). In this paper, a practical ubiquitous interface system far controlling mobile robots in indoor environments was proposed. The interface system was designed as a manager-agent model including a PC manager, a mobile manager, and robot agents for being able to be accessed by any network. In the system, the PC manager has a 3D virtual environment and shows real images for a human-friendly interface, and share the computation load of the robot such as path planning and managing geographical information. It also contains Hybrid Format Manager(HFM) working for transforming the image, position, and control data and interchanging them between the robots and the managers. Mobile manager working in the minimized computing condition of handsets has a mobile interface environment displaying the real images and the position of the robot and being able to control the robots by pressing keys. Experimental results showed the proposed system was able to control robots rising wired and wireless LAN and mobile Internet.

This paper describes the ubiquitous home network (uHome-net) testbed and LonRF intelligent devices based on LonWorks technology. These devices consist of Neuron Chip, RF transceiver, sensor, and other peripheral components. Using LonRF devices, a home control network can be simplified and most devices can be operated on LonWorks control network. Also, Indoor Positioning System (IPS) that can serve various location based services was implemented in uHome-net. Smart Badge of IPS, that is a special LonRF device, can measure the 3D location of objects in the indoor environment. In the uHome-net testbed, remote control service, cooking help service, wireless remote metering service, baby monitoring service and security ＆ fire prevention service were realized. This research shows the vision of the ubiquitous home network that will be emerged in the near future.

Ubiquitous environment is expected to be result of researches and studies in ubiquitous home base on. However, because of the complexity of the ubiquitous home base on, the realization of error handling seems impossible. In this paper, we present how to detect and recover from these errors for the Ubiquitous Home utilizing a fault simulator developed for the study and through a variety of experiments, results were discussed and analyzed. Base on the said results, future works are also discussed.

It is important to manage access control for secure ubiquitous applications. In this paper, we present an access-control system for executing policy file which includes access control rules. We implemented Context-aware Access Control Manager(CACM) based on Java Context-Awareness Framework(JCAF) which provides infrastructure and API for creating context-aware applications. CACM controls accesses to method call based on the access control rules in the policy file. We also implemented a support tool to help programmers modify incorrect access control rules using static analysis information, and a simulator for simulating ubiquitous applications. We describe simulation results for several ubiquitous applications.
