متن کاملContext-Aware Pervasive Services for Smart Cities
Smart environments support the activities of individuals by enabling context-aware access to pervasive information and services. This article presents the iTransIT framework for building such context-aware pervasive services in Smart Cities. The iTransIT framework provides an architecture for conceptually integrating the independent systems underlying Smart Cities and a data model for capturing...
متن کاملA context-sensitive dynamic role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Resources and services are accessible in pervasive computing environments from anywhere and at any time. Also, due to ever-changing nature of such environments, the identity of users is unknown. However, users must be able to access the required resources based on their contexts. These and other similar complexities necessitate dynamic and context-aware access control models for such environmen...
متن کاملA context-aware service provision system for smart environments based on the user interaction modalities
Ambient and pervasive technologies provide several ways to assist people with special needs in smart environments. However, the system’s complexity and the size of the contextual information of these environments lead to several difficulties in deploying and providing the assistance services. A service provision mechanism which is aware of the environment context can simplify the deployment of ...
متن کاملIntroduction to the thematic issue
This special issue is focussed on context awareness aspects within Smart Environments. Context awareness is one of the key features of Smart Environments, touching all layers of Ambient Intelligence from sensors and networks to Artificial Intelligence and interaction modalities. One of the questions related to Artificial Intelligence is, for example, how to appropriately represent context, or h...
