Semantic Location Based Services for Smart Spaces

چکیده
Enhancing the physical environment of users with IT and communication elements is one of the main objectives of the pervasive computing paradigm. The so-called “smart spaces”, which are typical pervasive computing environments, combine computing infrastructure with intelligent and context-aware services in order to advance the users’ computing experience. In this paper we describe the basic metadata-related infrastructure that is required for delivering semantics-aware location-based services in smart spaces. This infrastructure involves geometric and ontological spatial representation as well as graphand knowledge-based navigation algorithms.

The paper presents the work of the Elena project. The contribution of this paper is twofold: The first part of the paper elaborates on the notion of educational services. Educational services are differentiated from learning objects and put in context of web services. A model for educational services is introduced and current limitations of metadata standards are addressed. In the second part o...
متن کاملIndoor Semantic Location Models for Location-Based Services
With advances in Location-Based Services(LBSs), the motivation for indoor LBSs is becoming stronger since the complexity of indoor spaces. Semantic location model is becoming a pervasive data model to face with this challenge. The hybrid semantic methods and theories are used into this model to define and manage semantic information and location information. In this paper, we analyze some seman...
متن کاملDeveloping a ChatBot to Answer Spatial Queries for use in Location-based Services
A Chat Bot is an automated operator that can interact with customers like a human operator, answer their questions, solve problems and get feedback. Real-time responsiveness, the sense of talking to a human user is one of their good features that can be used to deliver location-based services. This paper designed a Chat Bot that can talk and answer users' questions based on their location. Thi...
متن کاملOn-the-Fly Ontology Matching for Smart M3-based Smart Spaces
Proper functioning of smart spaces demands semantic interoperability of the knowledge processors connected to it. As a consequence it is required to develop models that would enable knowledge processors to perform onthe-fly translation and interpretation between the internal and smart spaces ontologies. The paper presents our solution to the above stated problem, which has been implemented for ...
