Context oriented data staging for mobile environments

چکیده

In today’s computing environments every user interacts with several dozens of highly heterogeneous devices. These devices are frequently arranged in contexts; in any given context the user is interacting with a specific set of devices. Context oriented data staging is the problem of delivering up-to-date data to the devices of the current context, following the movement of the user between the contexts. Additional constraints are provided by factors such as the existence of intermediary contexts with low resource availability, the heterogeneous and potentially intermittent network connections of the devices, and the users preference for certain applications. We present a mathematical model of context based data staging by extending existing models with concepts of context, document type and preferred application. A set of hybrid algorithms, relying on heuristics and rule-based systems are proposed. We present an implementation of the algorithms, an experimental harness and typical scenarios. Simulation results prove the feasibility of the approach.

Service Offer and Request Descriptions in Mobile Environments?

In order to obtain robust and context-aware applications in mobile environments, service oriented computing can be a very promising programming paradigm. Here, the participants cooperate in a loosely coupled manner by invoking context-depend services on demand. However, the approach demands for an expressive description of the offered and requested services. This paper aims at giving a basis fo...

Applying Context-awareness to Service-oriented Architecture

Mobile devices used today have limited capabilities of gathering information about the situation in which they are used – the context – collecting data by sensors built into the devices. The currently popular service-oriented architecture paradigm composes applications from distributed services which provide a specific function through a platformindependent interface. In this paper, we describe...

Enabling Context-Aware Web Services: A Middleware Approach for Ubiquitous Environments

In ubiquitous environments, mobile applications should sense and react to environmental changes to provide a better user experience. In order to deal with these concerns, Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA) provide a solution allowing applications to interact with the services available in their surroundings. In particular, context-aware Web Services can adapt their behavior considering the us...

Visual Tracking using Learning Histogram of Oriented Gradients by SVM on Mobile Robot

The intelligence of a mobile robot is highly dependent on its vision. The main objective of an intelligent mobile robot is in its ability to the online image processing, object detection, and especially visual tracking which is a complex task in stochastic environments. Tracking algorithms suffer from sequence challenges such as illumination variation, occlusion, and background clutter, so an a...
