Conflict Resolution Method utilizing Context History for Context-Aware Applications*

چکیده
In this paper, we propose Conflict Manager to resolve conflicts for context-aware applications in smart home environments. Conflicts arise when multiple users access an application or when various applications share limited resources to provide services. In order to resolve conflicts among users, the Conflict Manager assigns priority to each user so that the user with the highest priority can be selected by exploiting conflict history of users. In addition, Conflict Manager detects and resolves conflicts among applications by utilizing preferences of users and properties of the services. To show the usefulness of the proposed conflict resolution method, we apply the proposed conflict resolution method to ubiHome, a smart home test-bed. The experimental results proved that Conflict Manager enable context-aware applications to offer personalized services to multiple users by resolving service conflicts among applications as well as among users.

History-based Conflict Management for Multi-users and Multi-services*
Context management in context-aware applications manages contexts obtained from various sensors and services related to users and environments. However, most of the previous context management mainly focuses on single user or single application. In this paper, we propose Context Manager that resolves conflicts among multiple users and multiple services for contextaware application in smart home...

متن کاملA Context-aware Architecture for Mental Model Sharing through Semantic Movement in Intelligent Agents
Recent studies in multi-agent systems are paying increasingly more attention to the paradigm of designing intelligent agents with human inspired concepts. One of the main cognitive concepts driving the core of many recent approaches in multi agent systems is shared mental models. In this paper, we propose an architecture for sharing mental models based on a new concept called semantic movement....
متن کاملAlgorithms to Resolve Conflict in Multiuser Context Aware Ubiquitous Environment
Conflict resolution in context-aware computing is getting more significant attention from researchers as pervasive/ubiquitous computing environments take into account multiple users and multiple applications. In multi-user ubiquitous computing environments, conflicts among user’s contexts need to be detected and resolved. Conflicts arise when multiple users try to access or try to have a contro...
متن کاملA Dynamic Context Conflict Resolution Scheme for Group-aware Ubiquitous Computing Environments
In this paper, we propose a dynamic conflict resolution scheme for group-aware ubiquitous computing environments. The proposed scheme incorporates users’ intention as well as user preferences into conflict resolution. Conflicts are resolved differently according to the situations of involved users even in the same conflicting situation. For multi-user environments, the proposed scheme dynamical...
