With the increase in amount of data and information available on the web, there have been high demands on personalized information retrieval services to provide context-aware services for the web users. This paper proposes a novel dynamic multi-agent context-awareness user profile construction method based on ontology to incorporate concepts and properties to model the user profile. This method comprehensively considers the frequency and the specific of the concept in one document and its corresponding domain ontology to construct the user profile, based on which, a fuzzy c-means clustering method is adopted to cluster the user's interest domain, and a dynamic update policy is adopted to continuously consider the change of the users' interest. The simulation result shows that along with the gradual perfection of the our user profile, our proposed system is better than traditional semantic based retrieval system in terms of the Recall Ratio and Precision Ratio.

As computing environments are more rapidly developed, an adaptive and intelligent services using post PC such as PDA. Laptop, and Tablet PC in case of rounding and examining patients are highly demanded. The objective of this study is to design and implement a context-awareness support system based on voice service for medical environments. To achieve it, we propose a context middleware which plays an important role in recognizing a client with PDA by using a Bluetooth wireless communication technology as well as in executing an appropriate execution module, like delivery for diagnosis information of patients, according to the staff's context acquired from a context server. In addition, the context server functions as a manager that efficiently stores context information such as client's current status, physical environment, and device resources into a database server. Finally, for verifying the usefulness of the proposed system, we develop an application system which provides voice playing services for notification of other physicians through our context middleware.

The Context-Awareness technology which can provide the appropriate information to the human after estimating a lot of information exceeds the time and space in the ubiquitous environment is being developed now. GIS (Geographic Information System) and LBS (Location Based Services) based context awareness is one of these kinds of technology. The context awareness based transfer guide service which can provide useful information, according to the different information which was got from different sensors which were set in different places, to the pedestrian who is using the transfer center will be introduced in this paper. About the result of the service prototype which was tested in test-bed, the context awareness information such as the inside location and density calculation's accuracy is 90%, and the response time of the service is in 10 seconds, and also, the reliability will be higher if more advanced based infra will be used, so it is consider that it can be used to provide service enough.

The explosive growth of information has been difficult for users to get an appropriate information in time. The various ways of new services to solve problems has been provided. As customized service is being magnified, the personalized recommendation system has been important issue. Collaborative filtering system in the recommendation system is widely used, and it is the most successful process in the recommendation system. As the recommendation is based on customers' profile, there can be sparsity and cold-start problems. In this paper, we propose personalized movie recommendation system using collaborative filtering techniques and context-based techniques. The context-based technique is the recommendation method that considers user's environment in term of time, emotion and location, and it can reflect user's preferences depending on the various environments. In order to utilize the context-based technique, this paper uses the human emotion, and uses movie reviews which are effective way to identify subjective individual information. In this paper, this proposed method shows outperforming existing collaborative filtering methods.

Ubiquitous Computing System란, 언제 어디서나 통신 및 컴퓨팅이 가능하고 컴퓨팅 시스템이 상호간에 정보를 공유하고 협력하는 컴퓨팅 시스템이다. 이로써 기존의 컴퓨팅 환경과 같이 사용자와 컴퓨터간의 대화형 상호작용이 아닌 물리적인 환경 상황(Context)등을 시스템이 스스로 인식하고 이를 기반으로 사용자와의 상호 작용을 지원하는 상황인식 기술이 필수적인 요소로 부각되고 있다. Ubiquitous Computing System을 위해 사용자 및 주변 환경의 정보를 감지하는 센서(Sensor) 기술이 필요하다. 하지만 사용자 및 주변 환경으로부터 입력되는 불확실하거나 모호한 상황정보에 대한 표현과 추론에 대한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 본 논문은 Rule based System을 활용하여 CRS(Context Recognition Switch)라는 새로운 개념을 도입한 Context Aware Architecture를 제시한다. CRS는 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 시스템을 위해서는 센서로부터 복합적으로 인지된 사용자 정보 및 주변환경의 정보를 사용자로부터 수동적으로 설정되거나 System의 지속적으로 수집된 정보의 통계 값인 Reference Value와 비교하여, 각 상황에 따른 개별적이고 특화된 서비스를 실행을 하도록 제공한다. 이로써 같은 정보의 입력이 들어와도 그 주변 환경의 상황에 따라 사용자의 필요에 최적화된 실행을 할 수 있다. 마지막으로, Ubiquitous Computing System의 향후 발전 가능성을 예상해고, 본 논문에서 제시한 Context Aware Architecture의 유용성을 짐작해 본다.

Recently, there are many researches to realize context-awareness service that recognizes surrounding environments as context and provide the citizens with pervasive convenience based on ubiquitous computing technology. In the u-City, various sensors collect information as context, and citizens will receive various context-awareness service, making use of their wireless and mobile devices and the infrastructures of the u-City. We designed ontology that is useful to structure information of sensor or device that is linked to networks and use OWL (Web Ontology Language) that can express information of mutual relation and partial situation. And we propose a context-aware reasoning system for personalized u-City services based on collected context information and user's intention.

Context-aware services recognize the context of situation environments of users and provide useful services according to the context for users. Usual rule-based systems can be used for context-aware services with the specified rules that express context information and operations. This paper proposes a light-weight rule engine that minimizes memory consumption for resource-constrained smart things. The rule engine manages rules at the minimum condition level, removes memories for intermediate rule matching results, and uses hash tables to store rules and context information efficiently. The implemented engine is verified using a rule set of a mouse training system and experiment results shows the engines consumes very little memory compared to the existing Rete algorithm with some sacrifice of execution time.

Due to recent development in wireless communication technologies and mobile information devices, the services on ubiquitous computing technology without time and place restriction have been spotlighted. Moreover, the interest of the Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and context-awareness technologies have largely been escalating and their technologies utilization is active in the various applications such as healthcare, farm management and so on. However, the direct adaption of the existing context-awareness technique to the WSN technology has several drawbacks as follows. First, such systems waste precious energy of sensor nodes, due to unnecessary data transmissions. Secondly, since the existing work was designed to support only specific applications, it is required to implement a new context-awareness application for a specific purpose. Therefore, we, in this paper, propose a new real-time monitoring system based on context-awareness in WSNs. Our system not only enhances energy efficiency by reducing data transmissions by doing context-awareness on a sensor node, but also is scalable in terms of supporting new context-awareness functionalities through modularization.
