A home network is a typical ubiquitous computing network that consists of various consumer devices and service environments. Home networks are requiring increasingly more complicated services, such as multimedia home theater and the monitoring and controlling of heterogeneous devices. Accordingly, a mutually connecting mechanism is needed among heterogeneous devices and services redundant. The current paper presents a Multimedia Room Bridge Adapter (MRBA) system that is designed to manage heterogeneous devices and support various services. In addition, a hardware and software prototype is implemented based on the proposed architecture.

In the vision of ubiquitous computing environment, smart objects would communicate each other and provide many kinds of information about user and their surroundings in the home. This information enables smart objects to recognize context and to provide active and convenient services to the customers. However in most cases, context-aware services are available only with expert systems. In this paper, we present generalized activity recognition application in the smart home based on a naive Bayesian network(BN) and fuzzy clustering. We quantize continuous sensor data with fuzzy c-means clustering to simplify and reduce BN's conditional probability table size. And we apply mutual information to learn the BN structure efficiently. We show that this system can recognize user activities about 80% accuracy in the web based virtual smart home.

유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 서비스 환경은 사용자와 시스템간의 상호작용성이 매우 중요하며, 이러한 상호작용성을 사용자 중심의 시각에서 평가하기 위한 새로운 평가 기법의 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구는 유비쿼터스 서비스의 특성이 반영된 사용자 중심의 상호작용성 평가 metric 개발을 목표로 한다. 이를 위하여 첫째, 기존의 유비쿼터스 서비스 평가방법론을 검토하여, 유비쿼터스 서비스 평가를 위한 평가 속성을 정의하였으며, 둘째, 대인 서비스 평가기법, 사용성 평가기법, 정신측정학 기반의 평가기법 등의 기존의 서비스 평가방법론의 한계를 극복할 수 있는 사용자중심의 상호작용성 평가 metric 을 개발하였다. 그리고 본 연구에서 제안된 평가 metric 을 u-home 서비스의 평가에 실제로 적용하여 그 유효성을 검증하고 각 지표별 중요도를 구해보았다. 본 연구에서 제안한 상호작용성 평가 metric 은 유비쿼터스 서비스 상호작용성 수준을 평가함으로써 잠재 서비스 사용자들을 분석하고, 제안된 프레임워크의 서비스 개발단계에서의 잠재 서비스 사용자에 대한 요구사항 수렴 및 수준 파악에 유용하게 활용될 수 있다.

The purpose of this study was to detect early children with hyperactivity which is one of the symptoms of Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This study used two methods: K-CBCL and observation of children's behavior. K-CBCL was done online by parents at home. For observation of children's behavior, the school asked children to wear a 3-axis accelerometer on their wrists. The data from K-CBCL and 3-axis accelerometer were analyzed and clustered to separate hypersensitive children from ordinary children. This experiment confirmed that 3-axis accelerometer which is one of Ubiquitous techniques and the K-CBCL questionnaire were helpful for detection of hypersensitive children.

Recently, the smart phone, a carrying along terminal connection technology such as Galaxytap/iPad etc. evolves, and supply is increasing rapidly, is included for smart phone because various sensor technologies are developed and service application that is acted in terminal with this is accompanied and grow. Continuously 4 generation to 3 Gs, Wibro Wireless network technology of communications a LTE technology from that is constructed, environment for Ubiquitous realization is being constructed fast. Therefore, in this paper it can inquire state of electronic, furniture devices through apartment complex web server and gear that control groove network at smart phone, and control, and confirms home state prevention of crimes state, and video inquiry of position that CCTV is placed in apartment complex was available. And it proposed integrated smart apartment with parking system and medical system using RFID system in ubiquitous environment.

The importance of personalized services has been attracted in smart home environments according to the development of ubiquitous computering. In this paper, we proposed the smart home personalized service system based on context information using the speech recognition. The proposed service consists of an OSGi framework based service mobile manager, service manager, voice recognition manager, and location manager. Also, this study defines the smart home space and configures the commands of units, sensor information, and user information that are largely used in the defined space as context information. In particular, this service identifies users who exist in the same space that shows a difficulty in the identification using RFID through the training model and pattern matching in voice recognition and supports the personalized service of smart home applications. In the results of the experiment, it was verified that the OSGi based automated and personalized service can be achieved through verifying users in the same space.

We have developed the convergence system that can control an appliance under ubiquitous circumstance. The system can display the GPS information received from the satellite, several control signal and mobile phone signal. In order to display the information between phone and the PC, we can control program command.

In ubiquitous environments, clients move between domains freely and its activities in the other domains are growth. Like this environment, the service provider makes access or activity records what they are provided to clients. This record can make a privacy problem to recognize a person or trace some works. So this record must be kept and managed by user instead of the service provider. In this paper, we propose a system that can gather those records from the service provider to home domain server which client's managing by themselves. In addition, if remote domain manager requests that record by the legal process, system can transfer only a range of information which allowed by client to keep personal privacy.

ZigBee Alliance is a network designed for low-cost and very low-power short-range wireless communications. The ZigBee Alliance is a consortium formed by several leading semiconductor and industrial manufactures, and end users. One of the tasks of this organization is the definition of the networking support and applications profiles that will use IEEE Std 802.15.4-compliant transceivers. In the case of IEEE Std 802.15.4, the ZigBee Alliance is an organization that has led the development of the upper layers, through the definition of application profiles. We have implemented ZigBee home control system, however we have not fully implemented. Because of the ZigBee is not perfectly standarded. We will have to implement according to ZigBee Specifications.

When a great variety of services become available to user through the broadband convergence network in the ubiquitous home environment, an intelligent agent is required to deal with the complexity of services and perceive intension of a user. Different from the old-fashioned command-based user interface for selecting services, conversation enables flexible and rich interactions between human and agents, but diverse expressions of the user's background and context make conversation hard to implement by using either user-initiative or system-initiative methods. To deal with the ambiguity of diverse expressions between user and agents, we have to apply hierarchial bayesian networks for the mixed initiative conversation. Missing information from user's query is analyzed by hierarchial bayesian networks to inference the user's intension so that can be collected through the agent's query. We have implemented this approach in ubiquitous home environment by implementing simulation program.
