Ubiquitous Surveillance and Data Selves

Ubiquitous Surveillance

Ubiquitous Data

Ubiquitous knowledge discovery systems must be captured from many different perspectives. In earlier chapters, aspects like machine learning, underlying network technologies etc. were described. An essential component, which we shall discuss now, is still missing: Ubiquitous Data. While data themselves are a central part of the knowledge discovery process, in a ubiquitous setting new challenges...

Architectural Improvements for Mobile Ubiquitous Surveillance Systems

Surveillance systems have begun to be integrated into the common lives of humans and improved surveillance systems will spread even further. Systems manufacturers will continue to provide powerful surveillance systems with different aspects from single sensors to an abundance of different intelligent sensors. These different devices will have the ability to deliver a large variety of informatio...

What is Ubiquitous about Ubiquitous Computing? - Space, Technology, Surveillance, and Behaviour

Discussing ubiquitous computing, the role of space is not quite clear. To get an understanding of the thinking on space, the main concepts of absolute, relational, and social space are explained. On this basis, the relation of space, technology, surveillance, and behaviour is concluded and exemplified by the results of a research project concerning video surveillance. Finally, it is argued what...
