Lowering the Barriers to Participation in the Development of Human-Artifact Interaction Systems
The development of wireless sensor networks enables sensors to be embedded in everyday artifacts to create smart artifacts. Smart artifacts can deliver a variety of context-aware human-centric services. However, current systems mainly rely on ad-hoc definitions of context information, which makes it difficult to achieve knowledge sharing, reuse and reasoning. Moreover, smart-artifact applicatio...
متن کاملCAMPS: A Middleware for Providing Context-Aware Services for Smart Space
Context-awareness enhances intelligent behaviors in pervasive computing environments, although it is still a great challenge to enable context-awareness due to lack of effective infrastructure to support context-aware applications. In this paper, we present an agent-based middleware called CAMPS for providing context-aware services for Smart Space in order to afford effective supports for conte...
متن کاملA Context Broker for Building Smart Meeting Rooms
Building smart meeting rooms requires the support of a computing system architecture. In this paper, we describe the Context Broker Architecture (CoBrA), a broker-centric agent architecture for pervasive contextaware systems. CoBrA exploits the Web Ontology Language OWL for supporting knowledge sharing and data fusion, uses logic inferences for resolving and detecting inconsistent context knowl...
متن کاملBuilding an Infrastructure Level Context Model in Ambient Assisted Living
Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) services provide intelligent and context aware assistance for elderly people in their home environment. This domain puts special requirements on context modeling that are not in the scope of current context modeling approaches. Such an approach has to support all phases of an AAL service, from its specification and development until its operation within the user’s ...
متن کاملVisual Modeling of Owl-s Services
The Semantic Web is slowly gathering interest and becoming a reality. More people are becoming aware of this and are trying to embed Semantic Web technologies into their applications. This involves the use of tools that can handle rapid ontology building and validation in an easy and transparent manner. In the area of Semantic Web Web Services (SWWS) an OWL-S specification defines a set of onto...
