Introducing Personal Operating Spaces for Ubiquitous Computing Environments
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pervasive computing environments will combine everyday physical spaces with network aware devices and services; hence providing computing behaviour that is much more entwined with the environments we inhabit. Within such environments, a nomadic user will own and make use of many services attached to, and organised around, physical space. This study introduces the concept of a personal operating space: an entity formed for personalisation of space specific services, by treating a user’s personal mobile device as an identity for personalisation.

A Middleware-Based Application Framework for Active Space Applications
Ubiquitous computing challenges the conventional notion of a user logged into a personal computing device, whether it is a desktop, a laptop, or a digital assistant. When the physical environment of a user contains hundreds of networked computer devices each of which may be used to support one or more user applications, the notion of personal computing becomes inadequate. Further, when a group ...

We present a user-centric input system that is useful for a variety of applications in ubiquitous computing environments. Users in these environments currently switch between different keyboards and mice, or other devices, to interact with all the devices present. Allowing users to select a personal input device for the space and use it to interact with all the devices in the space is a more na...
